I bought a 2025 Topps Holiday baseball box at Target. Let's peruse some highlights.
- Short print Skubal. I also got the base.
- Trout was a big deal back in the day.
- Acuna would be a big deal if he could stay healthy.
- Julio played for Modesto.
- Kershaw was a big deal.
- Soto had an impressive statistical season but the Mets missed the playoffs.
- Shohei didn't pitch much this season.
- Phillies legend Wheeler striking out Ohtani.
- Phillies legend Harper had a good season, but he's been better.
- Tatis was a big deal, but a season-long suspension put a damper on that.
- I liked Lindor more when he wasn't a Met.
- Merrill in the City Connect uni. I also got a fancy parallel but the image isn't up on TCDB yet.
- Phillies legend Realmuto is a free agent.
- Wood has the potential to be a big deal.
- With 200 cards in the base set, it's easy to get stars. I had less luck with the parallels and the Christmas ornament. Garret Crochet is probably the second best parallel.
- Unfortunately, there's an H in front of the card numbers so they aren't frankenset eligible. Still a fun set for a one-and-done though.
This years correlation was the worst I've ever seen. The base cards are lacking however the parallels seem better than previous years, even though there are way too many of them.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of this year's design but the holiday cards are always fun.
