2014 topps update hanger pack - the first of three topps update purchases

last wednesday, i bought three packages of 2014 topps update at the local target store.  they were three different varieties of packages, and the first one i will share is the hanger pack.  here's what i found inside the 36-card pack.

dodgers  first:

adrian gonzalez power players insert

a nod to inserts of the late 1990's/early 2000's

scott van slyke

second straight year that van slyke gets the update treatment. i am quite disappointed that his card does not feature a photo of him standing for the national anthem in the 2013 nlcs.

non-dodger inserts:

nick castellanos the future is now

david wright 1989 mini die-cut

i pull a lot of david wright cards it seems.

giancarlo stanton all-star game access

surely there was a better photo of the home run derby champion available to topps.

base:

steven vogt

jd martinez

eduardo escobar

nick punto

chris denorfia

cole gillespie

jake odorizzi

jerome williams

chad qualls

mookie betts

brandon cumpton

eduardo nunez

justin masterson

kendrys morales

john lackey

maarcus stroman rookie debut

oscar taveras rookie debut

matt shoemaker

hector rondon

jon singleton

kyle seager asg

derek jeter asg

devin mesoraco asg

giancarlo stanton asg

ronald belisario

john baker

adrian beltre asg

adam jones asg

chris martin

jason hammel

glen perkins asg

the hometown closer closing out the all-star game was a nice story.  the twins needed a nice story in 2014.

up next, the value box.
