I picked up a couple of slightly discounted 2010 Topps Heritage packs from the retail guy at the card show a week ago. These ones have pre-priced wrappers, so I'm not sure what stores you might see these in. I know that the usual big box suspects (i.e. Target) do not tend to have pre-priced wrappers. One of the packs was a little... strange.Mutant Pack:
405 - Lou Gehrig Baseball Thrills (I like that these cards are of legends this year instead of current players.)215 - Derek Jeter
25 - Juan Francisco / Jay Bruce / Joey Votto Reds Heavy Artillery (Booooo Reds. My Ohio-leaning friends would likely assure me that the Reds challenge this year will be short-lived when they take their usual second half dive, but they do have a lot of young talent. The Cards re-took the division lead today. Let's hope it stays that way. In any case, at least it's the Reds and not the Cubs/Astros/Brewers...)

250 - Andrew McCutchen / Garrett Jones Young Bucs
306 - 2009 World Series Lee Dominates (Cliff Lee is in a tough spot, playing this season for one of the most offensively challenged "competitive" teams in ages.)
383 - Matt Cain / Tim Lincecum Frisco First Liners (Here's another team that scares me. At least, these two hurlers scare me and that's a start. What is "Frisco First Liners" supposed to mean, anyway?)415 - Luke Hochevar
121 - John Lackey
But wait... there's more!
182 - Adam Jones
469 - Derek Jeter All-Star (Okay, so I got 10 cards instead of the usual 8. No big deal, I suppose. I also got a double Jeter pack. Somewhere some bratty kid is crying because he only got 6 or 7 cards in his Heritage pack, and his piece of gum is broken into shards and he got no Yankees cards to speak of anyway. That's the breaks, kid.)
Non-Mutant Pack:
90 - Gavin Floyd
45 - 2009 NL E.R.A. League Leaders (Lots of guys on this card. I won't list them all, but two of them are really, really good. One of them is Tim Lincecum. And then there's the guy that hurt my fantasy team...)101 - Jhonny Peralta
41 - 2009 NL Batting Average League Leaders (Albert's power outage is starting to concern me a bit.)
231 - Johan Santana (Johan was the big winner in tonight's Sunday night game.)330 - Jamie Moyer
166 - Ramon Hernandez (Yikes, it's another Redleg.)
87 - Juan Uribe (And sometimes you get Juan Uribe.)
My want list is updated. Check it out over at the sidebar.

ReplyDeleteInteresting pack! And wrapper.If you still have it (wrapper) and don't want it, I'll gladly trade you some Cards cards for it! Heck, I could send you some Cards cards anyway. I'll check your lists!
