Reds gone

Yu Darvish traded to Dodgers

Plains are gone

I wonder why they didn't make any of the orange /5 parallels for this card? I thought that might be the new norm on autos and relics after the Judge derby relic had one and the latest Bellinger auto did as well. I like those.

Ephland · 07-31-2017, 03:28 PM

Well crap, guess I missed out. I was at the game, though, so I'll survive.

cj828282 · 07-31-2017, 03:31 PM

Yeah, I would personally like to have the #/25 out of orange instead of purple. Since the purples are usually last to go maybe Topps can reconsider for next year.

This league is essentially set up to have players who are able to play it every time until the MLB playoffs begin, then the top 4 players will take part in three best-of-7 series to decide the champion of the head-to-head league.

It is a test run for how the TNPRPL will work all of next year. The regular game we have been playing since May is still in effect and will be played simultaneously with the H-t-H games throughout the MLB playoffs and will be declared officially over with the last of the World Series cards. The player with the best winning percentage (and who has played in over half of all games played) will be declared the winner. You are currently in 2nd place in that league.

Question: Is there a way to see the card of the month before redeeming points? Also if I were to redeem points for 1 card of the month now, does that mean I have to use it on this months card or can I wait and use it any time?

If you wait until the last few days before the end of the month, Topps usually provides a picture of the card. Then you can redeem or not.

autos all gone.

If you need to trade me out I won't take offense. It seemed like a fun game so thought I would give it a go. I will be able and plan on playing everyday so whatever works best for the league

No worries, you are good! If Americards will be able to play every game until the end of the regular season, we should be able to have a 10-team league. Let me know soon though, we are already into game #4/5.

mlbfan10 · 07-31-2017, 04:07 PM

Got my /199, looking forward to it!

okumeister · 07-31-2017, 04:11 PM

How did the autos go out so quickly all of the sudden!?
Was it the Topps email effect??
I did receive the email shortly before the autos went sold out, but it seems everyone receives the email on different timings somehow.

Got home to find my Cubs RTOD waiting for me, sooooo much excitement!

Mine should have arrived today as well.
I feel like my fate is the same as yours on this Cubs set.

Welcome to the Bronx Sonny..

rangerfan19 · 07-31-2017, 04:20 PM

I was so pumped that they would be doing an auto for Beltre today! Fired up to get mine!

Correct me if I am wrong, but this is his first licensed Rangers auto right? I know he has had some auto's in Panini products in a 'Texas' uniform, but I don't recall Topps ever doing a Rangers Auto of his.

SoCal Topps Now · 07-31-2017, 04:24 PM

NOPE! I got a /99!!!

I got my Ortiz auto today.
A Streaky mess with dinged corners, thanks Topps now!

On a bright side my Cubs came in and the Wade Davis is perfect.

I grabbed one /199- I was thinking there could be a chance that this is the last 3k hit Topps now auto we could see in a looong time (or ever, who knows how long the program will last)

I think next year the /25 color should be the team color...
