Official Topps Binders

Has anyone bought any of the official Topps binders offered through ShopTopps.com?  I've got one of those $10 e-gift certificates from the Diamond promotion  (plus the 15% off coupon code) and was looking at the Allen & Ginter album. 

Are these well made?  Any comments from anyone that has bought one of these before?

Sunday Verse

Matthew 5:14, 16 (NIV)

" You are the light of the world.  A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.  In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. "

I ran across this awesome song by the David Crowder Band that sums up the verse perfectly.  And the video ain't half bad either.  Makes me wish I still had my Lite Bright!

Pack Break - 2011 Bowman Platinum

I first saw these cards over at fellow blogger and Braves fan Waxholic's blog.  I was really impressed with what I saw and I couldn't wait to find them myself.  Little did I know that I would run across them @ Walmart before the local card shop even had them in stock.  What is more shocking is this Walmart NEVER has new stuff first.  Even the Target up the road still doesn't have anything new.  They had the mini gravity feeder with loose packs and rack packs - no blasters.  Seeing how I've seen many many people searching packs at stores in my area I decided to grab a rack pack hoping someone's grubby fingers hadn't molested the pack.  I'd say I got myself a 'virgin' of a pack.  Keep reading...you'll see.

Rack packs yield 3 packs with 4 cards each + a pack of 3 exclusive purple refractors...all for $8.99.

Pack 1:

#04 Jon Lester

First card out of the pack is a Red Sox.  At least it wasn't a Yankee.  At first I thought this card was something special and then I realized all the cards have a rainbow foil vibe going on.


#BBP96 Christian Colon

My first Prospects card.  Didn't Topps issue some eTopps cards that looked vaguely like these?



#93 Aroldis Chapman RC

This card looks more gold than anything, but the wrapper didn't mention any non numbered parallels.  Anyone know if this is anything other than a base card?


#42 Ubaldo Jimenez

I still can't believe the Rockies traded this guy.  At least the Braves won't have to face him now near as often.

Pack 2:

#15 Roy Oswalt

Boo!  I'm beginning to really hate the Phillies.


#BPP29 Manny Banuelos

...followed by a Yankee.  Not shaping up to be the best pack for me.


#74 Starlin Castro

If you're reading this post Matt Pederson, you want this card?


#44 Jeremy Jeffress RC

Pack 3:

#63 Prince Fielder 

This guy may have a cute kids and a big smile...but after last year I don't care for him too much.

 
#BAR-JMA Jhan Marinez autographed relic (0884/1166)

What?!  I never pull many hits...esp. from retail packs.  Best I can tell from the wrapper's listed odds this card falls 1:630 packs (assuming it falls in Group A).  Now why couldn't I have pulled something with those odds in my box of Allen & Ginter?  It would've scored me some major Gint-A-Cuffs points! 

I'm up to trading this card for something else.  Not sure which Braves players appear in the checklist, but I'm open to trading.


#BPP73 Julio Teheran

Before this season started I had never heard of this guy.  He had one start earlier this season and while he was a little shaky I'm sure we'll be seeing more of him in Atlanta in the coming years.


#77 Dan Uggla

This guy is on fire!  Smokin' hot at the moment.  After this evening's beating of the fish from South Beach he has a 21 game hitting streak.  There were some doubts earlier this season about Uggla and his big contract.  Funny how some solid play will shut up the skeptics and doubters.


#68 Stephen Strasburg

That guy...I'm sure you've heard of him.

Bonus Pack:

#BBP9 Blake Smith


#BPP82 Garrett Richards


#BBP18 Zack Cox

These purple refractors really do little for me so I could care less to keep them.  If you're interested in them please let me know.

Overall I am really impressed with this year's Bowman Platinum.  I was glad to pull 2 Braves from the rack pack and the hit was a really nice surprise.  I hope to be able to acquire more Braves very soon.

July 2011 Group Break - 1995 Sportflix (continued)

Let's try to wrap this up.  Back to more pack rippin'

Pack 19:
#084 Rafael Palmeiro (Orioles)
#002 Jeffrey Hammonds (Orioles)
#027 Darren Daulton (Phillies)
#142 Orlando Miller (Astros)

#HT18 Tim Salmon - Hammer Team (Angels)

What?  A Tim Salmon card that I don't have in my PC?  Whoever got the Angels I'll be contacting you about a potential trade for this card.

Pack 20:

#167 Mike Piazza (Dodgers)
#021 Raul Mondesi (Dodgers)
#048 Jeff Bagwell (Astros)
#163 Mike Kelly (Braves)
#063 Matt Mieske (Brewers)

#141 Alex Rodriguez (Mariners)
#051 Roger Clemens (Red Sox)
#097 Tony Clark (Tigers)
#121 Mark McGwire (A's)
#063 Matt Mieske (Brewers)

Is this an actual A-Rod RC?

Pack 23:
#025 Kirby Puckett (Twins)
#049 Ben McDonald (Orioles)

#056 Wil Cordero (Expos)
#102 Pat Hentgen (Blue Jays)
#126 Jack McDowell (Yankees)
#007 Royce Clayton (Giants)
#132 Ken Caminiti (Padres)

Some of the cards (like this McDowll and Caminiti) feature a team logo as the 2nd picture on the card's front.  I'm guessing they were recent signees with the respective team shown.

Pack 26:
#009 Charlie Hayes (Rockies)
#035 Alex Fernandez (White Sox)
#086 Ruben Sierra (A's)
#149 J.R. Phillips (Giants)

#118 Jeff Conine (Marlins)

#DE8 Cliff Floyd - Detonators (Expos)
#106 Mike Greenwell (Red Sox)

No offense to any Expos fans, but I was bummed to see our 2nd Detonators card was an Expo!

Pack 28:

#125 Dante Bichette (Rockies)
#005 Derrick May (Cubs)
#029 Randy Johnson (Mariners)

#HT11 Matt Williams - Hammer Team (Giants)
#109 Rusty Greer (Rangers)

#023 Todd Zeile (Cardinals)
#046 Gary Sheffield (Marlins)
#013 Don Mattingly (Yankees)

#170 Barry Bonds / Cal Ripken Jr. (Giants / Orioles)
#025 Kirby Puckett (Twins)
#049 Ben McDonald (Orioles)
#093 Robby Thompson (Giants)

I'm glad we got a dup of this checklist card as now both the Giants and the Orioles will each get the card.

Pack 35:
#112 Reggie Sanders (Reds)
#136 Derek Bell (Astros)
#017 Delino DeShields (Dodgers)

#HT6 Albert Belle - Hammer Team (Indians)
#153 Brian Hunter (Astros)

Pack 36:
#165 Roberto Petagine (Padres)
#024 Bernie Williams (Yankees)
#050 Eric Karros (Dodgers)
#089 Shawon Dunston (Cubs)
#038 Bret Saberhagen (Mets)


I'm going to have to pay close attention when separating the cards as I didn't see the Artist's Proof parallel that should have been in the box.  There is a chance we were shorted the card, but my guess is that I simply overlooked the card.  I'll try to update this post once I find the card.

You probably noticed that the collation wasn't nearly as good in this box compared to the Fleer Extra Bases box.  It's a smaller set for one so I expected some dups, but certain players seemed to pop up more often.  That said PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT YOUR DUPLICATE CARDS.  Thanks again for everyone's participation.

The dirt on McGwire...

...or rather his card!

I only need one more card to finish off this awesome Play at the Plate dirt relic set.  If anyone runs across the Jeff Bagwell card in this set please let me know!

July 2011 Group Break - 1995 Sportflix

Onto the last box of this mini break - 1995 Sportflix.  I don't know about you, but I love a good pseudo 3D baseball card.  The inserts look promising from what I've seen online.  We'll be chasing the following:

- Hammer Team (1:4)

- Detonators (1:16)

- Double Take (1:48)

- Artist's Proof (1:36)

Pack 1:
#016 Tony Gwynn (Padres)
#043 Jay Bell (Pirates)
#158 Rikkert Faneyte (Giants)

#HT3 Jeff Bagwell - Hammer Team (Astros)
#011 Ellis Burks (Rockies)

OK - these hammer Team cards have got to be one of the goofiest designs I've ever seen!  I hope the other 2 insert sets look a little better than this!

Pack 2:
#038 Brett Saberhagen (Mets)

What?!  Only one card?  I guess this is what you call a reject pack.  Let's hope there aren't any other packs like this in the box.

Pack 3:
#018 Bobby Bonilla (Mets)
#041 Matt Williams (Giants)
#156 Greg Pirkl (Mariners)

#078 Javier Lopez (Braves)
#003 Fred McGriff (Braves)
#026 David Cone (Royals)

#HT14 Fred McGriff - Hammer Team
#011 Ellis Burks (Rockies)

It may be a silly card, but it's a card of the Crime Dog that I didn't have!

Pack 7:

#045 Greg Maddux (Braves)
#088 John Valentin (Red Sox)
#159 Duane Singleton (Brewers)

#HT8 Don Mattingly - Hammer Team (Yankees)

#162 Chipper Jones (Braves)
#072 Greg Colbrunn (Marlins)
#095 Darren Lewis (Giants)
#116 Dennis Eckersley (A's)

The "rookie" cards are pretty ugly...looks like a giant lollipop threw up all over the card.

#146 Chan Ho Park (Dodgers)
#056 Wil Cordero (Expos)
#102 Pat Hentgen (Blue Jays)
#153 Brian Hunter (Astros)

If the other pack was a reject, then this is a mutant pack.  This made up for the missing cards from the other pack.

Pack 14:
#042 Lenny Dykstra (Phillies)
#157 Scott Ruffcorn (White Sox)
#067 James Mouton (Astros)
#094 Barry Larkin (Reds)

There is a lot going on in these Detonators cards!  Congrats to the Giants as they keep showing up in the insert category.  And no the back of the card was not cut off in the scan...

We'll wrap this box up in a little bit.  I broke my pinky toe the other night while trying to navigate a dark bedroom to help my wife w/ the baby.  After chasing my toddler around today @ Monkey Joe's I need to prop my feet up.

Atlanta bound in September...Finally!

While sitting on the couch this evening with my wife watching the Braves / Pirates game we started to think about going to a game one weekend.  We went a couple of times to Atlanta to catch a game when we were dating, but since we've been married I think we've only been to one game.  It's been close to 5 years since I've made the trip to Turner Field.  We've tried scheduling a trip in the past, but w/ 2 small children its not as easy for us to leave town on a whim anymore.

We fired up my wife's netbook and headed over to the Braves site to look at the schedule.  We decided on Saturday, Sept. 3rd when the Braves take on the Dodgers.  Thanks to Stub Hub we found 2 lower level tickets for just under $30 after all of the fees.  I can't remember the exact section number at the moment, but the seats look good.  I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to this weekend trip.  I've read of other blogger's trips to MLB fields and I've been oh so jealous.  I'm glad everything fell into place for us.  Now I just hope it doesn't rain that day!

And there you have it!  I really enjoyed opening this box.  Probably one of the best boxes I've ripped since I started hosting group breaks.  I wish some of the base cards shared the horizontal photography that the Game Breakers inserts used.  My Braves didn't perform like I was hoping, but I hope everyone else is happy w/ their teams' performance.  Next up - 1995 Sportflix.
