Gypsy Queen and Donruss Breaks

One of these days I will get caught back up.

A few weeks ago, I bought a blaster of Donruss and two jumbo hanger packs of Gypsy Queen.  The Gypsy Queen breaks consisted of a lot of duplicates, because, well...Topps.  I'm still hoping to pull a Brock Holt Highlights card.  No luck so far.

Here are the Red Sox:
For simplicity sake, I included the duplicates of J.D. Martinez.  I LOVE the JBJ picture.  I remember that play pretty well last season.  He is having a terrible season at the plate so far this year, but this is a reminder of how much fun he is to watch in the field.  

As for the Donruss cards, Sale and Benintendi are the base versions and Devers is the variation.  

So, no truly exciting pulls for the Red Sox.  The JBJ is a parallel, but not a particularly rare one.

Here are the team-by-team totals for pulls:
HOUSTON ASTROS: 8
LOS ANGELES ANGELS: 8
NEW YORK METS: 8
TAMPA BAY RAYS: 8
ATLANTA BRAVES: 7
BOSTON RED SOX: 7
COLORADO ROCKIES: 6
MIAMI MARLINS: 6
OAKLAND ATHLETICS: 6
BALTIMORE ORIOLES: 5
CLEVELAND INDIANS: 5
TORONTO BLUE JAYS: 5
WASHINGTON NATIONALS: 5
ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS: 4
CINCINNATI REDS: 4
DETROIT TIGERS: 4
KANSAS CITY ROYALS: 4
MILWAUKEE BREWERS: 4
PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES: 4
TEXAS RANGERS: 4
MINNESOTA TWINS: 3
PITTSBURGH PIRATES: 3
SAN DIEGO PADRES: 3
CHICAGO CUBS: 2
CHICAGO WHITE SOX: 2
NEW YORK YANKEES: 2
ST. LOUIS CARDINALS: 2
SEATTLE MARINERS: 2
OTHER: 2
LOS ANGELES DODGERS: 1
SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS: 1

The Red Sox tie for second.  I counted duplicates because it was easier.  The Yankees and Dodgers surprisingly did pretty terribly.

The Braves are pulling away with things.  Boston is in third and the Yankees have fallen off the pace a little.
