Incoming

Kerry, from Cards on Cards, is the latest to honor my greatness with some free cards. 























-  Yount as a shortstop.

-  My 4th Lillard, which doesn't seem like a lot, but for a current player it kind of is.  

-  The face of the Bad Boys, which also included Rick Mahorn, John Salley, and a young Dennis Rodman. 

-  Half the Twin Towers duo (with Akeem Olajuwon).  My first card of him as a Rocket.

Scoring from My Dealer

 


I bought a batch of cards from Cardbarrel.  

Mostly 1986 Donruss (26) and 1989 Fleer (31), because I like the designs, but they're junk era so they're cheap.

I also got a few cards for mini collections:  Cy Young, perfect game, MVP, same name, trivia answers, 42, and Topps Through the Years.

 





-  I now have 4 Blombergs.  Not going out of my way for him, but he's still cheap enough to be an add-on. 

-  I only have 3 Mendozas and I want more. 

-  I completed my 42 page.  5 pitchers though.  Meh.  

-  Phillies legend Dave Stewart on a different team. 

-  Looks like Winfield popped up.  Was it October?  

-  Rodgers is my 2022 Topps card.  Gold Glover and that other reason.
