A big congratulations to Adam Wainwright for finally getting win #200 last night. Great effort against the first place Brewers throwing 7 innings of shutout baseball. Wish I had a card of his to show off from today's 2 trades, but no dice. Maybe next week I can if he wins #201. I do have quite a few other pitchers to show off. First is a small package from member Jdogbarkn2.
This 1996 gold medallion was not part of the original trade, but the member sent 1 wrong card and replaced it with this. Glad there are some honest traders out there. Mathews was an average reliever who is most famous for being part of the Mark McGwire trade.
I only need the Albert Pujols card to finish my 2003 Bowman Chrome set after adding these 2. Johnson and Duncan both contributed to the 2006 World Series team.
I did get this cool 2003 Fleer Pepsi mini Pujols card. First time ever seeing this one.
Second trade package came from member hatchetman1367.
Hence pitched the Double A Springfield Cardinals into the playoffs earlier this week. If he stays healthy, he should see some bullpen time in St. Louis next year. Walsh had a break stint in the bullpen last year before getting released this year.
Two of my favorite Bowman Chrome cards are the Top 100 set and the Mojo refractors.
Another favorite brand is Finest Flashbacks. The 1995 design used for the 2022 release is a little dark, but still a great looking set. Weird seeing Carpenter in a Cardinals uniform.
Cool cards. Those old Bowman Chrome cards are really cool, especially the Chris Duncan. RIP.
