2 Boxes of '09 Bowman Sterling - Live Break Tonight, Going Fishing

[mkal411]

Hello all,

After going without internet for the better part of the month, I am finally up and running at the new apt.

I have 2 boxes of '09 Bowman Sterling arriving today and should be opening them after work.

I am hoping for a nice Mike Trout parallel auto.

Let me know if you guys are looking for anyone in particular.

Matt

Sure, follow the link in your signature to see your current MLB trade stuff?

Yep, LMK if there's anything you like. I've got a Ripken Tribute jersey if you're interested since you're from MD

[enginedown]

LMK if you pull any Latos cards, I need everything except the black ref

Perry is a reliever, and a decent one at that....not sure about Iorg, sounds like a robot...


nice trout and hanson!!

[trouts2]

hudson is nice. He's a good young pitcher on a potential playoff team this year

[waintrain]

I like the Ottavino relic. Like this Pence:
2007 Topps Turkey Red Hunter Pence SP RC

I also am not sure about guys that sound like robots. Although Carlos Beltran was a pleasant surprise when not injured.

[WCTYSON]

FT?

Autos:
Tim Wheeler base

[jasonadkins]

You nailed two AMAZING Gold Refractor AUTO's, both of them might bring a very pretty penny in October if they can have a few great playoff starts. Congrats!

[REDSOX2011]

Nice cards/break. :)

I'm interested in some cards if you'd like me to mail you a list of my autos and refs or you can browse my buckets?

Like these:
Fuentes ref au
White au
Hudson gold au
Grossman au


PM your addy if interested and I'll send you some links and an easy to read master list of refractors/autos. Or you can check my current sig-link bucket for some stuff.

Is the Choo for Trade/Sale?

Is the '07 Turkey Red Pence SP serial #'d or non-#'d?

Thanks! Still not sure how I feel about Bowman Sterling overall. The '09 is tough because the WBC relics aren't really worth much.

I imagine 2010 Sterling can be hit or miss too because of all the USA cards (although I'm sure some are worth decent money).

Besides hitting the Trout auto, I was excited to hit the dual Posey/Beckham auto. That's my 1st Posey auto.

Traded to me, thanks. :)

Iorg is a bust of a prospect. Was highly touted his first couple years but completly lost it.

Perry is a middle reliever. Was thought to be a future closer but he struggles under pressure. Still has some potential but we'll see. If you pulled that back in 09 it obviously would have been a much better pull.

All in all a very good break! :)

[NonFlammable]

Nice job man, you wanted Trout and hit - not to mention some other sick pulls. Great break!

[waintrain]

The Pence is not #'d
