Collecting Cleveland Indians Topps team sets from 1952-present, as well as post-war minor and major league autographs.
From the Collection: Giancarlo Stanton, DH, New York Yankees … I have no idea if the Florida Marlins’ trading away Giancarlo Stanton following the 2017 season was all that terrible of a move, in retrospect. … Giancarlo Stanton was an amazing player with the Marlins. Over eight seasons, he had[…]
Justin Verlander had a fantastic 2022 season with the Houston Astros. He went 18-4 with a 1.75 ERA and 0.829 WHIP, good for a 220 ERA+. Verlander also lead the league in every one of those stats.
Carl Yastrzemski had an amazing career. When he retired following the 1983 season, he had been in the majors for 22 years. His accolades speak for themselves
During his 22-season big league career, Musial was selected to 24 All-Star teams, won seven batting titles. was a three-time MVP, and finished in the Top 10 in MVP voting 11 more times. That is…impressive.

Collectors Choice. I am not sure why, but they are some of my favorite looking cards of the 90’s, and assuming the photo works, some of my favorite cards to get signed.
Tony Gwynn is one of my Top 5 favorite players ever. Every couple years I try to add a new autograph of his to my collection, and this is the newest, from the 2005 Upper Deck Baseball Heroes set. I was worried that the dark card and blue autograph[…]
Gerald Williams has always been a favorite of mine. Back in the day when I would play All-Star Baseball on the N64 he was my 4th OF, and later I was his batboy while he was in AAA, and he tipped me $20. I carried around that $20 bill for[…]
Barry Bonds was a very good baseball player. Maybe one of the best ever. So good that I imagine if he was not such a dick during his playing days people might be willing to overlook his PED use and he would already be in the Hall of Fame. Looks[…]
