Topps Total Wave 8

 One card grabbed my attention from Wave 8 of Topps Total:


This is the first Red Sox card of reliever Austin Brice who was acquired in a trade with the Marlins in January.  He was coming off of a good season in Miami last season and, other than a couple of bad outings, impressed in his first season with the Red Sox.  Brice appeared in 21 games, starting one as an opener, and threw 19.2 innings.  He had a 5.95 ERA that was, again, inflated by one or two bad games.  He struck out an impressive 25 batters while walking 13.  Brice will likely be back next season.
