#465 Tim Laker Montreal Expos
#413 Carlos Delgado Toronto Blue Jays (This is one of those cards that lists Delgado as a catcher-I have seen quite a few like that, even seen some of him in full gear. I had to know how much catching he did so I looked it up. At the big league level Delgado caught a total of 2 games over his 17 year career. He logged a total of 5 innings behind the plate, he had 3 put outs and no errors. He worked much better as a first baseman and Delgado has some amazing career numbers and if he can ever get healthy again, those numbers will grow. In ’93 he had just one at-bat, he didn’t play his first full season until 1996 and he hit 26 homers that year. Delgado has never led the league in homers, but did hit 30 or more for 10 consecutive seasons. His 473 homers is 30th All Time. If he can hit 3 more long balls he will pass Stan Musial and Willie Stargell and move into 28th All Time. Another thing that jumped out at me about Delgado is I read he has made over 150 million bucks over his career. Hey Carlos, wanna sponsor this blog? I’ll write nice things about you!)
#399 Darrell Whitmore Florida Marlins (another Marlin that I don’t remember…)
#463 Mike Bordick Oakland A’s

#461 Mike Stanton Atlanta Braves
#492 Spike Owen (one of several dupes in this pack…)

#506 Mark Portugal San Francisco Giants
#528 Tony Longmire Philadelphia Phillies (who?)
#283 Doug Henry Milwaukee Brewers (he saved 17 games for the Brew Crew in ’93-he had 29 the year prior)


Okay, the 14th and final card out of the pack is

Okay, that is your 3rd pack-21 more to come! Sorry I don’t have video capabilities. I know that is customary for box breaks. Is everybody okay with the way I am doing this? Any suggestions, comments or complaints? Please let me know, this is all new to me. I will say that I wish now that I had devised some sort of points system, ala Gint-A-Cuffs, some sort of penalty for pulling all of these Yankees. I have cards and wrappers all over the place and I am barely getting started, but this is fun for me. I hate to sound like a broken record, but PLEASE get me your addresses and if you know what you are sending me in return, please let me know. Aside from your take of your team over these 84 packs, I will throw in whatever cards I have of your team. For some it might be only 1 or 2 cards-for others it might be 100. Until the next pack, troll out.
Gotta love that Benito card...play at the plate!
