Topps Big League Blaster #4

Let's get caught up here.  I bought another Big League blaster, still with an eye toward pulling that elusive Gorkys Hernandez card, even though he may never appear in a Boston Red Sox game.  

So here are the Red Sox:
Okay, I like the Stat Kings cards, but when four of the five Red Sox cards are Stat Kings cards, it feels a little cheap.  Sure, one of them is a Gold Parallel, but still.  So, my favorite card is the J.D. Martinez Award Winner card that features a Hank Aaron cameo.  Plus, it too is a Gold Parallel.

Here's the breakdown:
BOSTON RED SOX: 5
CLEVELAND INDIANS: 5
WASHINGTON NATIONALS: 5
ATLANTA BRAVES: 4
OAKLAND ATHLETICS: 4
MILWAUKEE BREWERS: 3
PITTSBURGH PIRATES: 3
ST. LOUIS CARDINALS: 3
TEXAS RANGERS: 3
TORONTO BLUE JAYS: 3
BALTIMORE ORIOLES: 2
COLORADO ROCKIES: 2
DETROIT TIGERS: 2
HOUSTON ASTROS: 2
KANSAS CITY ROYALS: 2
MIAMI MARLINS: 2
NEW YORK METS: 2
NEW YORK YANKEES: 2
SAN DIEGO PADRES: 2
SEATTLE MARINERS: 2
CHICAGO CUBS: 1
CINCINNATI REDS: 1
LOS ANGELES ANGELS: 1
LOS ANGELES DODGERS: 1
MINNESOTA TWINS: 1
SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS: 1
TAMPA BAY RAYS: 1
ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS: 0
CHICAGO WHITE SOX: 0
PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES: 0

In a three-way tie with the Indians and Nationals, the Red Sox come out on top.  Of course if not for those Stat Kings cards, it would have been much different.

ATLANTA BRAVES: 55
BOSTON RED SOX: 55
LOS ANGELES ANGELS: 52
HOUSTON ASTROS: 51
CLEVELAND INDIANS: 44
WASHINGTON NATIONALS/MONTREAL EXPOS: 44
NEW YORK YANKEES: 42
OAKLAND ATHLETICS: 38
ST. LOUIS CARDINALS: 38
NEW YORK METS: 36
TORONTO BLUE JAYS: 36
CHICAGO CUBS: 35
PITTSBURGH PIRATES: 35
TAMPA BAY RAYS: 34
MILWAUKEE BREWERS: 33
DETROIT TIGERS: 32
KANSAS CITY ROYALS: 32
COLORADO ROCKIES: 30
PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES: 30
SEATTLE MARINERS: 30
BALTIMORE ORIOLES: 29
LOS ANGELES DODGERS: 29
MINNESOTA TWINS: 28
TEXAS RANGERS: 28
ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS: 27
SAN DIEGO PADRES: 27
CINCINNATI REDS: 26
MIAMI MARLINS: 26
CHICAGO WHITE SOX: 24
SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS: 20
OTHER: 2

And the Red Sox are now in a tie for first place with the Braves.  That is interesting.  Quite a bit of movement occurred in the totals.  The most notable is the Angels falling back and the Yankees falling out of the top five.  That is kind of odd.
