Second Saturday Package

Despite missing the card show on Saturday, I scored a great batch of cards.  My largest package came from good trading friend and Trading Bases member Ron B.  This time he sent a great assortment of 2019 Stadium Club and Prizm cards.


Two more 19 Stadium Club base cards off the wantlist.  Wish the Flaherty pic was more centered on the card, but it is still a great shot.

Goldschmidt is finally starting to heat up for the Cardinals.   It looks like he usually get hot after the All Star break.  The Cardinals sit 1/2 game out of first right now.  They have been on a good streak without verterans like Molina and Matt Carpenter.  Carp may be back by the end of the week, not sure when Yadi is coming back.   Matt Wieters has done a great job in his absence.

The base cards from 2019 Panini Prizm are rather bland.  Very shiny, but no logos and a dark background leave a lot to be desired.  The inserts and parallels are a different story.

These look more orange to me, but they are a Red Prizm.  If you do not like red, there are other options.

Maybe blue is more your color like these Blue Prizm cards. 

If those are too plain for you how about  Blue Mojo, Neon Orange Donut Circles, or Power Plaid variations.   Are you confused yet, because I am. 

Toning it down a little with a Green and Yellow Hyper Prizm, a Silver Prizm, and a plain old Fireworks insert.  The insert does have 3 other variations.

Here you have a regular Scorching on the right, and a Scorching Prizm on the left.  There is also a Gold Prizm and Black Finite Prizm out there.  There are more colors in Prizm than a box of Lucky Charms. 

My son came away with a new Orange  Altuve.  He had the other 2 cards.  Good thing I know another Altuve collector with doubles of his own to trade.
