Not two, but just Juan Marichal

Santa Lot 20 for today highlighted in classic fashion (yay)...

Highlights:

Getting a few more 2005 Classics cards is a nice get for this 20. Definitely a set I wouldn't mind completing, and where you can get cards from past stars like Marichal that don't cost an arm and a leg - hard to go wrong.

The rest:
Keepers:

Kariya as a Blue...makes me Blue, but a couple more SP Authentic cards for 2007-08 will go in the keep pile for the time being.


Traders:

Christie as a Raptor...late 90s...when the Raptors were still new and the city was captivated by having an NBA team. Not sure it held as well in the 00s, but given their play the last couple years, you definitely get the sense of a basketball town during the stretch and playoff runs. Other than that, some additions to a couple sets which may end up mostly complete with the 2004-05 Ultra and 2007-08 Topps.
