Collecting Cleveland Indians Topps team sets from 1952-present, as well as post-war minor and major league autographs.
I have been eyeballing this card for a couple years now and was finally able to snag one for under $10. Pretty happy. Joc Pederson was drafted in the 11th round (352nd overall) by the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2010. He moved quickly through the system, and by 2013 was[…]
I love the 2001 Topps Heritage 1952-style certified autographs. When I saw that Cabrera had one I jumped on it. I am not really thrilled that the Indians are in a position to need to keep Melky Cabrera on the 25-man roster. And he was pretty terrible during his initial[…]
B.J. Upton was in camp with the Indians this past spring but did not make the team. This is…kind of a huge fall…for a player who was the #2 overall pick in the 2002 draft. I really thought that he had the chance considering the lack of competition, but he[…]
Pretty excited about this autograph, from the 2015 Topps Heritage Set (’51 Collection). This is been on my short list of cards that I have been wanting to add to my collection since it came out. I kept missing out on it since the ones that were popping up were[…]
Couple Carlos Correa autographs from my collection. I have been a fan of his since he was in Quad Cities, so its great to see him turn into one of the better players in the National League. He is having a bit of an off year in 2018, though[…]
This card was signed during Spring Training this year. Was really hoping to knock it out…I figured the autograph would pop, and its a neat, short-printed card as well. While I love the Indians, the Athletics are a close second and its nice to see them having some sucess this[…]
I don’t normally care to add guys from the 2016 Chicago Cubs team if I can help it…but considering he is with the Phillies now and one of the more accomplished pitchers in baseball…I got over it. It’s easy to forget that for the first three years Arrieta spent in[…]
I had this card laying around and had an opportunity to get it signed by Hoskins. Jumped at the chance, and it turned out great. Glad I did it. Rhys Hoskins was a well thought of prospect moving up through the Phillies system, showing plus power and great discipline. His[…]
I have been trying to get this card–from the 2001 Topps Heritage set–for a while. There are a couple on eBay, but the BINs are (shock!) too hight. I knew if I waited it out I could get it for half what they are offering. And I was right. I[…]
A couple months ago I missed out on a private signing with Wainwright. It was kind of expensive, and I decided to pass. Ended up getting this autograph a couple weeks later for a quarter what the signing would cost. I think its a nice looking card. I first started[…]
