i didn't make it past the card aisle during a recent trip to target without grabbing some product. in addition to the 2014 bowman platinum value pack i mentioned this morning, i grabbed a 2014 topps chrome blaster (with purple refractors) and a value pack (with orange refractors), too. i had one of those topps coupons which took $3 off the blaster price. good for me. anyway, i came away with some dodgers

welcome to the blog, erisbel.kenley jansen

that was it for dodgers, unfortunaely. no blue refractor parallels which are usually so nice. i used to buy 2 boxes every year of flagship, plus one of chrome, and one of traded. i haven't done that for a while, but i considered buying a full box of chrome this year. i think i'll stick with the blaster. here are some of the other cards i pulled.a couple of joses - bautista
and fernandez
oscar taveras
dude homered in his first big league game, but only has 2 since.
mike trout
trout's about the same age as taveras (22). that's what a real phenom looks like.
enny romero refractor
one start in 2013 earned him a card in the set. ponderous.
ivan nova orange refractor and regular refractor
if i had to get what essentially amounts to doubles of a yankee, i guess i'm glad it's not cc sabathia.
another yankee, jacoby ellsbury, for my die-cut insert
cj cron xfractorwith a phantom high-five
here's a grouping of other refractory things - kyle seager, matt adams xfractor, homer bailey, and jean segura orange refractor
and now the purple refractors from the blaster - hisashi iwakuma, christian yelich, jonathan lucroy, edwin encarnacion
last but not least, an orange refractor that fits into one of my mini collections - a double play turn by jurickson profar
now i'm just waiting for update...

There is no such thing as too many Hunter Pence cards :-)
