Rickey Henderson and Mark McGwire are his childhood heroes. Blake is also making another Mark McGwire but this time as a Cardinal.

Topps started putting extra paper in the boxes so the weights don’t mean much as of a couple of weeks ago. Good luck.

Sure is. Great way to guarantee even lower PRs. I don't see many folks being able to talk themselves into purchasing a daily 4 pack

At least its a Cardinal Big Mac I guess. Guessing he'll do something unique for the Rickey too.

There are a lot of baseball players.

You can see the Blake Rickey just on a google search. It is in the background of an article about him. Will display well with the Pose Rickey

CBS This Morning has a segment on the history of Topps and baseball cards today during today's show. Legendary baseball card designer Claw Money and her Doc Gooden card showed up in the preview.

Coming back to the boards this morning...wow

This is how Topps is pushing it's product? I'm not trying to pick on Claw Money and I know I ripped on her Gooden pretty hard, but come on. There has to be someone out there that's willing to do a TV spot that's more deserving of being a face to the project.

Ok it's been 42 years, but that still seems like it's too soon.

I think Pardee is in Cali, so they probably wanted someone in NYC. Claw Money got 10 seconds and mostly talked about how she's trying to channel her family's love of baseball growing up in NYC with her set. They also showed the P70 Trouts, Palmer Ruth, and Blob Down.

Foul Ball Paul and Pat Neshek's Kirby Puckett card were the stars of the segment.

Kind of embarrassed to admit that I am doing the Claw Money set--this Munson is testing my faith

Per her interview with See-BS it sounds like she's doing all NY players.

Might be striking another artist from my list

Where did you guys see the change in daily releases?

I have personally not bought a single 3 pack this year and I wonder if maybe they've found internally that the $10 savings doesn't seem to be moving the needle anymore. I can see how they'd maybe want to release more cards in the year to improve their financials as well.

I'm guessing Blake mentioned it on his stream last night.

I havent bought a 3 pack either. I already have a box full of P2020 cards I don't care about from buying 2 packs and don't want to add to that.
