As you can obviously tell, there are no Bowman cards. I did not pull a single Red Sox card from the Bowman packs. It is made-up for somewhat in the Big League pulls with four Red Sox, though three of those all came in one pack. So, it was a little frustrating. That being said, I absolutely love the Mitch Moreland Nicknames card here. Exactly the kind of card I love pulling. An insert of a player without a lot of cards. With the two Mookie cards, he is now at 200 cards in my collection. An impressive feat.

The Padres had a huge breakthrough, mostly on the strength of a very strong Bowman showing. They do have a ton of prospects, so that was not terribly shocking. Boston finished in the middle of the pack. Not a great showing, but much better than I thought after the awful Bowman break.

I don't understand this Braves thing. What the hell is going on? Boston stays in third, but loses ground to the Angels. The Padres made a huge leap out of the cellar, leaving the poor Giants in the dust.
Woof, not getting a single card you could use in a pack is rough. Much less two of them. Though one look through the checklist shows me that most of the Red Sox prospects are repeaters (the Yankees prospects are repeaters too) who already had cards made of them before. So maybe that's a blessing? Idk, maybe that's just my viewpoint as a guy who was so mad about it he made a blogpost about it.
ReplyDeleteSidenote, did you pull a Andrew Knizner (STL) base out of the Bowmans? If so I'd love a shot at it.
I'll look back at that, but the name doesn't ring a bell.
