The Cardinals have been awful the last few days. Last night was their first win in six games. They are four games under .500, and in fourth place. That is bad, but it could be worse. The Rockies have the worst record in baseball at 4 and 18. I feel sorry for them being in the NL West. Every other team in that division is above .500.
Despite the bad records, there are still fans like me who collect cards of bad teams. TCDB member mgratton is from Colorado and collects his home team. We worked out a small trade last week for a handful of Cardinals in exchange for a small stack of Rockies.
I doubt you'll find a Cardinals collector who doesn't want Musial cards, especially base cards from premium brands.
Ozzie Smith is another Cardinals favorite. This 2024 Update insert highlights his 1985 NL Championship Series home run against the Dodgers. Topps should have used a photo of him hitting left-handed.
Ponce De Leon is not a Cardinals great. Most Cardinals fans will remember him for the line drive he took off his head while in Triple A, or his dugout argument with Yadier Molina. He was released shortly after that. I am just happy to cross this 2019 Finest short print off my want list.
