I really do love Mascot cards. They could have an insert set in every set and that would be fine (maybe no colour parallels for the insert set though). I haven't checked but mascot looks are changed up often enough there would be at least a couple changes each year I would figure. It would be cool to be able to pull a team's mascot card for a good 10-20 year stretch to see the change over time. Unlike players that age, I suspect most of these would actually be quite ageless!
My son's favourite player, simply because of his name and because my son is 9 years old - Albert.
Polanco is a star in picture in this bunch though between the scoreboard background and the great bright yellow Pirate uniforms.

Years ago (back when the Giants were winning the WS every other year) the gents were talking baseball at lunch and Albert's name was brought up. A few of the ladies joined the conversation when they heard his last name. We started talking about Coco Crisp and Milton Bradley too.
ReplyDeleteA good couple names too - Milton Bradley is one of my personal faves as far as names go.
