One of these days I might get caught up. I suppose it would help if I actually posted every day. Anyway, here is a random insert/relic lot I picked up, primarily for the relics of Bobby Dalbec and Michael Chavis.
This was my first relic of Dalbec. I really do not have any idea what to expect from Dalbec this year. He had a great Spring and he was excellent down the stretch last year, but he strikes out way too much. Chavis is a cautionary tale. He too came to Boston with some big power but high strikeout rates. Eventually, the strikeouts ate him alive and he could not be a productive hitter with that strikeout rate. He was dumped at the trading deadline last year for Austin "Big Fudge" Davis, a lefty middle reliever. I did have a couple of Chavis autographs previously, but no relics.
Beyond the relics, the lot consisted of a bunch of inserts. I really like the Select Phenom card of Dalbec and the die-cut Platinum Players card of Roger Clemens. And then there is the parallel mini of Alex Verdugo, one of my favorite current Red Sox players.
