So, Sam stopped by last weekend to hang out for a bit and of course we brought out the card binders. I had been on a bit of a binge, buying all sorts of random blasters again and I had a bunch of stuff in my “for trade” pile. I ended up trading my Michael Choice auto for Bowman Platinum and two Ryan Zimmerman relics from 2008 Baseball Heroes and 2011 Lineage. You can actually see the scans over on his post. In return I got a super nice signed Razor Letterman patch of Kyle Weiland, a 2011 Gypsy Queen David Ortiz relic and a 2007 UD Masterpieces Papelbon relic. Quite the nice trade. Scan is here.

It’s been a good day for receiving things from the United States Postal Service. I got a whole bunch of goodies today. For starters, I had sent away a couple weeks ago for “Fan Packs” from the Bruins and the Red Sox. They both showed up and they are both awesome. The Bruins pack has a couple big stickers, two car bumper stickers, some funky Zamboni shaped rubber bands and a small pack of 2010 Bruins hockey cards. The Red Sox pack had a picture of Jon Lester, a card for Wally the Green Monster, a Red Sox wrist band and a small packet of Fenway Park dirt, which is epic. (more…)

Sam is planning on breaking an entire case of Upper Deck Artifacts in the very near future. I bought in for $30 and will be getting any Red Sox cards he pulls. There’s still a couple teams left if anyone is interested.
Athletics, Brewers, Cubs, Rays, Dodgers/Dbacks/Pirates, Giants, Mariners, Nationals/USA, Padres, Rockies, Tigers, and White Sox are all still up for grabs. I had considered getting the White Sox as well since there’s potentially several Carlton Fisk relics in the case, but they’re all from his Chicago years, and my wallet thought better of it. If you’re interested, check out his blog post about the break.
