I inquired about getting my Albies/Acuna or my Homerun Derby Participants signed by one of the players(Acuna/Harper) on it and I was denied. So, there's that...

Now I am stuck picking between Soto(if there is ever a contract signed)/Albies/Bryant I guess. Was hoping to trade Soto but he is probably my best option to get signed as it was insinuated they are working on a contract at the ASG Festivities. Hmmm...

64 total All Star Game Starter and Reserve Subjects. That would make 32 Platinum Members if everyone got 2 and there were no other cards given to anyone. I thought we figured a few more, but I guess we shall see.

That's the number I've been assuming since the first week when the reported highest number was 63.

Just in case anyone else is seeking to have a multi player card signed (by multiple players) I asked and here is the reply:

We don’t allow autographs for multiple players for the B/W card.

Best,

Jeeves

Yep, As I mentioned, they won't let you get 1 guy from the multi signed either. So with my Acuna/Albies dual, they won't let me get JUST Acuna. :-( Same with my Homerun Derby card, JUST wanting Harper on it.

Lots of complaints for a program that is basically given by their good graces. I'm guilty as well but seeing others makes me realize how pathetic it sounds.

What is wrong with a little complaining about not being able to get 1 guy on a card that carries that guy, whether the image has 1 or 8 guys. Kinda doesn't make sense to me, so I complain about it. Just me though, cause life is good and I have nothing better to do right now :-)

If I had gotten an Ohtani, Gleyber, Andujar, Acuna, Trout, or some other Auto worthy Subject, I would complain maybe a LITTLE less :-) Still holding out hope they get a Soto contract done by the end of the season, but not gonna hold my breath...

I love they did the 1/1s for us and since it's random I have no one to complain to other than Lady Luck. Congrats to those who were lucky to get jewels of the cards this year so far. Still have a lot of regular season to go though.

Went thru my 1/1 hits and updated my list. Most cards for trade unless otherwise noted.

#23 Shohei Ohtani- PSA 10; keeping for now; not eligible for GT
#41 Hanley Ramirez
#95 Ender Inciarte
#100 Seattle Mariners- not eligible for GT
#159 Shohei Ohtani/Christian Villanueva- not eligible for GT
#182 Wilmer Difo
#217 Stephen Piscotty (Charity)- keeping
#231 JD Martinez/Mookie Betts- not eligible for GT
#269 Nathan Eovaldi
#309 Jake Bauers
#332 Wade LeBlanc- keeping; Contreras error card I posted about was replaced
#372 Freddy Peralta
#396 Andrew Knapp
#426 Arizona Diamondbacks- not eligible for GT
#450 Chris Sale- keeping; front runner for GT
#495 Austin Gomber/Daniel Poncedeleon; not eligible for GT
#AS29 Patrick Corbin ASG
#AS51 Nelson Cruz ASG

I sifted thru 4 tubs of packages this weekend with everything from LS, MOTW, ASG and some RTOD autos.
What I didn't get in big cards in PBW 1/1s I feel like I made up for in those other cards especially, RTOD autos.

Just joking around...I'd be interested in the Knapp.

Me as well. Love that they are doing this with the 1/1's and whatever I wind up with is all good.

Here's to hoping they do it what the Soccer cards as well(even if its without the autos), the 1/1 black and white would be VERY cool...
