Twitter – Various Cubs

by

I heard from Twitter follower Jason (@jklongwith) again who found four more Cubs cards that he thought I might be interested in. I really like the Topps Chrome cards of Addison Russell and Jason Heyward. The Heyward card is a purple refractor with serial #113/299 which is pretty nifty. The 2015 Panini Contenders with Ian Happ and Kyle Schwarber in college uniforms is sweet as well. Thanks again Jason!

Late night Meijer run

by

After my wife and I enjoyed a nice evening out, we decided to hit Meijer for some milk. We poked our heads in the baseball card aisle and noticed they had some Topps Chrome packs. They were rather pricey at $10.99 for 17 cards, but I decided to get a pack. You get 3 packs containing 4 cards plus a 5 pack of pink refractors. We also got a few Topps Series 2 – 36 count packs, but they didn’t impress me enough to take any pics.

I seem to be on a Cody Bellinger hot streak as I found one of his rookie cards in the Topps Chrome. Also got a Yoan Moncada RC and Alex Bregman 1987 card. The Miguel Cabrera card is a negative which is kind of cool. The Bryce Harper is a pink refractor.

Only a few Cubs in this with Addison Russell, Jason Heyward Refractor and Jose Quintana (now a Cub).

I like the Topps Chrome cards. They feel a little thicker to me and the cards really pop. I just wish they weren’t so darned expensive!

P.S. Yes, we did manage to pick up some milk while we were there. 🙂
