Hope everyone's doing well. It's Super Bowl week, so here's a baseball post from the ol' Scanned folder! I don't have a dog in the race, but as the saying goes, "in order the be the man, you gotta beat the man", the man being Mahomes.
Look at that pricing! 10 bucks for a blaster. Thanks, Covid.
Each blaster came with 4 blue parallel cards. I don't remember if they were in the bonus pack or if they were randomly inserted into the packs, but here's my 4:
#6 - Kevin Gausman
#307 - Carlos Santana
#65 - Matt Kemp
#101 - Travis Jankowski
Here are the backs because The Big Game:
Onto the blaster pack.
10 cards per pack, let's see what I got:
#104 - Jose Abreu
#325 - Gerrit Cole
We've seen a rack pack on the site before; each pack has 1 of 4 possible player combos. The design is OK since this is a low end product. It's possible I could have been upset if this was a flagship design.
#211 - Miguel Cabrera
#53 - Josh Reddick
There are 400 cards in the set; the first 343 cards form the base and the rest are from 3 subsets (Stat Kings, Award Winners, and Highlights).
#BO-8 - Aaron Judge (Blast Off)
#363 - Stat Kings: 2018 AL Wins Leaders (Gold parallel)
The Blast Off insert comes 1 in 4 packs. You also get a Gold parallel in every pack, which happens to be the Stat Kings in this case.
#94 - Leonys Martin
#277 - Sean Doolittle
Doolittle retired last year after 11 years in MLB. He got signed by the Nationals to be on their coaching staff.
#398 - Christian Yelich (Highlights)
#97 - Aaron Hicks
Yelich had a rebound year for Milwaukee, while Hicks rebounded nicely in Baltimore.
Here are more backs because The Big Game:
Love those Did You Knows.
Anyway, that's the pack. All the ol' Scanned folder has now are Pokemon cards, a pack of football cards (but some of the files are corrupted, so I don't know if that will ever get on here), and several scans of individual cards which may make it on here if I can think of the right angle for it.
Enjoy the Super Bowl, party responsibly, and thanks for reading!
