I have been collecting Topps baseball cards since I was a kid. I created this site to share my favorite cards from my collection and all of the wax packs I bust. I will also be commenting on my thoughts about card collecting and baseball.
This blog is for collectors of Topps baseball cards

Placido Polanco, since 1998 he has played for the Cardinals, Phillies and Tigers
-
Chin-Lung Hu (auto = awesome) has been playing for the Dodgers since 2007, from Taiwan
-
Trevor Hoffman has been playing for the Padres since, 2003. Also holds MLB Saves record at 525

Alex Rodriguez, once again lucky he is playing in his home state, amazing player but $275 million is wrong

Carlos Pena (14/25), Tampa Bay player, who after 6 years up and down had an amazing year in 2007
-
Miguel Cabrera, Tigers, part of the 2007 Malins trade along with Dontrelle Willis is now making $153 million

Pack Break - 2008 Topps Moments & Milestones
-
Carlos Beltran has been playing for 10 years and has made a lot of money (58 million). While he has won lots of awards he doesn’t seem to stack up for HOF potential.
-
Ryan Howard was born in St. Louis, Missour (same as myself). He had an amazing 2006 winning the NL MVP and the Major League Player of the Year. Pulling a serial #’ed to 25 card is cool for me.
-
Matt Holliday got the honor of playing in the 2006 and 2007 All Star Games.
-
Erik Bedard doesn’t have great stats but he is still young enough to have an amazing career.
-
Daisuke Matsuzaka was one of the top 10 stories of 2007. It is yet to be seen if he will live up to all of the hype.
-
Albert Pujols is a very likely HOF player. He plays on my favorite team (St. Louis Cardinals) and he has played in every All Star Game but 2002. I’m glad I pulled this card.
