My One of a Million Card

I know everyone is doing this exact same post today, and I am not ashamed. Not only am I not ashamed, but I am just warning you now, I will be posting one of these every time I redeem a code. I actually think this is a pretty cool marketing idea. So on the back of my MIKE SCHMIDT Million Card Giveaway I found this code:d7&59qkK$ What did I get for entering this code?


1. A former player of my favorite team. Recently picked up by the METS.



2. A Topps Rookie of said player.



3. A card less then three years old.



4. A card that I have at least 5 of already.



5. A card that features a terrible posed picture.



6. A card that has a terrible faux autograph.





Thats right folks I scored a 2007 Shawn Riggans!!!!!

THE CARD ADDICT

A random 2010 Topps pack

Here are the results of a random 2010 Topps Baseball pack. Nothing special. I am pretty sure I have every worthless Babe Ruth card from Series 1 now, and I have to be closing in on every Youkilis as well, which are also worthless to a Rays fan like myself. Here we go, let the fun begin!!!


MAX SCHERZER-great photo, according to the back Max is unlucky!
KEVIN YOUKILIS- look how excited the Red Sox nation is in the background.
ANTHONY SWARZAK-hard to beat a bull pen warm up shot!


NICK JOHNSON-looks like it was taken between innings
ZACK GREINKE-AL CY YOUNG...Joe Mauer hit .400 off him though
BABE RUTH-Merry Christmas Yankee Fans... The deal was sealed on Dec. 26th


CHARLIE MORTON-What little league has the Blue Jays?????
JOSH HAMILTON-toppstown makes me frown!!!
ROBINSON DIAZ-nice photo


HOMER BAILEY-his eyes tell me this pitch may have been a little high?
NEIL WALKER-nice ball in glove shot of the ROOK.
KENDRY MORALES-home run or towering pop out, we may never know.

THE CARD ADDICT

Matt Carson or Mark McGwire???

Thanks for the comments on the last post. Here is a side by side comparison of some McGwire cards and the 2010 Matt Carson. You are absolutely correct very similar!


The Carson card says he is 28 years old with no Major League experience... However he did hit 25 home runs last year for Sacramento. He also did a little pitching. He has a lot of home runs to hit if he wants to catch McGwire, who by age 28 had already hit 220 big league round trippers! I hope he has a few bottles of ANDRO laying around...
