The cool thing about getting the Road to Opening Day team set is the bonus cards if an individual player or team meets a certain accomplishment. So far, there has only been one such case for the Red Sox and here it is:
Tanner Houck started off the season on fire and looked like a Cy Young contender for the first couple months of the season. One of his best games was on April 17 when he tossed a complete game shutout against Cleveland. Houck gave up just three hits and no walks while striking out nine and throwing just 94 pitches the entire game. Houck has broken through this season and looks like a solid number two starter at the least going forward. It has been unexpected because I thought he would probably best be served by becoming the team's closer. This season has proven me wrong.
