Embracing the custom card makers

on June 14th, 2009 by Mario A.

Let’s face facts, many collectors these days are fed up over the perceived recycled designs and ideas plaguing the baseball card market. Just how many more “X” designs can Upper Deck incorporate into their products? How many more dead brands will Topps resurrect to feed the retro-themed zombies?
These days, custom card makers aren’t just designing [...]

Mariano Rivera’s Race To 500 Saves!!! Part 1

on June 14th, 2009 by 30-Year Old Cardboard

Mariano Rivera’s Race To 500 Saves!!!  Part 2
For those of you that have been reading my blog for a while now, you know that I don’t value the role of the closer on a baseball team in the same way that others do.  Nobody is right or wrong in the debate, I just prefer to give more value to the middle reliever [...]

Whatever happened to Wayne Krenchicki?

2009 Upper Deck Baseball Buybacks

on June 14th, 2009 by thehamiltonian

I’m not talking about the box toppers that are a bit of a bonus.  I’m talking about the base cards that are inserted into the packs.  Its a nice idea, but I think it was strangely done.  This is the  buyback base card I pulled out of my recent box break of 2009 Upper Deck [...]

2009 Upper Deck Draft Football Box Results

on June 14th, 2009 by rosschrisman2003

Update – After redeeming both cards, I discovered that the Carpenter autograph will be limited to only 10 copies.  On the front of the box it states that all autographs are on-card.  I think that needs to be changed to “all single autographs are on-card” because my Kelly / Heyward-Bey dual autographed card uses stickers. [...]

So What Hat Does Randy Johnson Wear To Cooperstown???

on June 14th, 2009 by 30-Year Old Cardboard

It could be very easily argued that Randy Johnson would be a first-ballot Hall of Famer even if he did not reach the 300 win mark.  But with his latest victory, and now being in that famed club, Johnson has solidified himself as one of the greatest pitchers of this generation as well.
I thought it would be [...]

2009 Home Run Derby News

on June 14th, 2009 by thehamiltonian

Even though Hamilton is on the shelf for a little while, he is still making the news in MLB, thanks to the newly enacted fan voting for the Home Run Derby. I don’t think Hamilton will be back in time for the All-Star festivities, but it shows that a lot of fans remember his performance [...]
