As I was opening up my package from Spankee's most-recent Moneyball Group Break, (he's a NEW DAD, btw) I was showing the cards to my wife. At first I excitedly said "Here's an Angel Berroa card that I still need!" Then I came to my senses and realized that, as my post-title implies, nobody needs an Angel Berroa card. I complained a lot about him during his time in KC, so my wife would prefer not to have anything in the house by which to remember him.
2009 SP Authentic - #23 - Zack Greinke
SP Authentic was one of my favorite recent sets. Clean design, white base stock, very nice. This Greinke is a great example of it.
Here were a few more prospect beauties. Although Salvy is up in the bigs now and doesn't look like he's going back to the minors anytime soon.
1983 Topps - Paul Splittorf
I don't know why this was in the group break. Maybe it came from one of those "oddball" repacks or something...I doubt Spankee was opening a 1983 wax pack. Anyway, I still love it.
2002 Donruss Super Estrellas #39 - Carlos Beltran
Jardinero! Jardinerrrroooooooo...........!!!!!
What's this junk? An expired code to go to the 2008 All-Star Game? I think that game has already occurred. After all that good stuff at the top, Spankee, I think your break is really going to the dogs.
2012 Allen and Ginter - Man's Best Friend - #2 - Dalmatian
Yeah. It's DEFINITELY going to the dogs. No way this break can be redeemed now. :-)
2007 Topps Chrome Autograph - Angel Sanchez
Consider yourself redeemed! This was a throw-in from our gracious host. I didn't know this one existed, so it was super-fun to see this come out of the envelope.
Indeed I do, Sad Harry Potter clone! Indeed I do. Thanks, Spankee.
I had left the box from Spankee's group break unopened for some time. Not because I didn't want to open it, but I had other stuff going on. Besides, it was a group break - you already know what's in there, right?
Wrong.
There was no Royals hit in the break, but unbeknownst to me Spankee tossed this gem into my pile.
2007 Upper Deck Game Materials #MS - Mike Sweeney Jersey Relic
Dude....I LOVE Sweeney! Thank you so much - that was incredibly generous.
