TCDB 2 for Tuesday #89

I had to remind myself last night that today is Tuesday.  Those long holiday weekends can make you forget the day of the week.  Good thing I have a calendar by my scanner.  Only six cards to show off today from the two trades last week.  First trio came from member plevin.


Topps Flagship Collection has a nice clean design.  I like it better than the flagship design.  The lack of borders makes the image stand out.


The second Sonny Gray of the package was a nice blue 1989 parallel.  Gray has been a really good pitcher this year when he can keep the ball in the park.  After only giving up 8 home runs in 2023, he already has served up 21 this year.  That is the main reason his ERA is over a run higher.

The second trade came from member DThiry.


The dark borders from flagship look even darker on Chrome.  At least Topps included Scott in the set after he was not in Series 1 or 2.  


With 31 games left this season, Arenado has 15 home runs.  For a guy that averaged over 30 his first 11 years, that is quite a drop off.

  1. I love long weekends... especially if they're long enough to make you forget what day it is.
