I was holding off on it because I wanted to post scans of the cards. Well in recent months I have been trying to declutter my apartment and trying to get my card collection in a better more organized state. That means that most of sections of cards from mail days have been moved around and are in some kind of pre-sort mode (or actually added to their respective places in the collection) and are not available to be scanned at publishing time. Plus I really need to declutter my draft queue. So there will be no card scans of this post. </div><div><br /></div>If this post were on my regular <a href="https://captkirk42.blogspot.com/">card blog</a> it would be part of my upcoming <i>Maildazed From The Pazt</i> series. <div><br />
<b>Monday 14 September 2015</b><br />
I got a package of cards from 5TooSweet’s (Abel) TCC Baseball Group Box Break. [NOTE: Sadly Able passed away a few years back, I forget the cause may have been cancer] Anyway I bought my standard homie team Nationals and bought a bonus discount team Twins. It was mostly just my Nationals I might have asked not to send Twins base and they didn't get any hits. I’ll only mention a team if it is not a Nat card.<br />

I didn't know the seller was so close until the Ebay Standard Envelope (a PWE in this case not a true Ebay SE) arrived with the return address. I don't think it is the guy from my office, the seller has an avatar with his picture (and some of his family) and it is not the same guy unless he was the photographer. The people in the avatar picture are lighter-weight and smaller than the guy in my office. The seller seems to mostly sell off his Nationals dupes.

I still like them but jeez give us more info Topps, it is Topps NOW not Topps Whenever. The card makes no mention of who the Nats were playing. Alex and the other players in the home whites tell it was a home game and the walk off indicates they were either tied or behind at the start of the bottom of the ninth. I had to double check to see which batter and pitch it was, turns out he was the lead-off and it was on the first pitch. Makes it that much more exciting for us fans.</p>CaptKirk42http://www.blogger.com/profile/16039278539984069944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969183451059332760.post-48702574876090943592023-05-31T12:00:00.116-04:002023-05-31T13:42:27.257-04:00CJ Abrams NOW<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRvuYjUzfuqjtTsglolvtfcVV7Rxg8OCLK_5w8mhHUEODThWkiq4hIpfWHhRVjsn7Kto0lPuSs75p2rmbzBU-QlEt6195bruFt3LmeKtUaWHUdLLkxPZ4dPlnc9Ubn0T2OD96YLWonEWUFy6SCjFJ87qRYkcmHpHXluvWeU9baC5_uQdLeR8Whj-K4/s847/cjabrams2022tnowtile1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="589" data-original-width="847" height="446" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRvuYjUzfuqjtTsglolvtfcVV7Rxg8OCLK_5w8mhHUEODThWkiq4hIpfWHhRVjsn7Kto0lPuSs75p2rmbzBU-QlEt6195bruFt3LmeKtUaWHUdLLkxPZ4dPlnc9Ubn0T2OD96YLWonEWUFy6SCjFJ87qRYkcmHpHXluvWeU9baC5_uQdLeR8Whj-K4/w640-h446/cjabrams2022tnowtile1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">2022 Topps Now Baseball - 845 and 974 C.J. Abrams Washington Nationals - Base Cards</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div> Last season when the Mid Season Trade Deadline Came and Juan Soto and Josh Bell WENT to the San Diego Padres for 6 players, I was devastated that the team had traded away two of their best all-around players who could make the big hits. Since I don't follow any teams other than The Nats I had little to no knowledge of the players that had been traded to us. Most of them at the time were in the Padres' Farm System.<p></p><p>Well one of those players has emerged as quite a player <a href="https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/a/abramcj01.shtml">CJ Abrams</a>. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CJ_Abrams">CJ</a> has quickly become a fave Nat of mine. The cards I got from Ebay and they are from 2022 Topps Now Baseball. These 5 cards are technically just "two" cards since 3 are parallel variants. Normally I haven't been able to find parallel Topps Now cards so I grabbed them since they were affordable. I did see a Red parallel (1/1) of one of them but it was way more than I wanted to pay.</p><p>Going by card numbers first up we have card 845 celebrating C.J.'s First Career Four Hit Game on 05 September. I have the "base" card, the Blue parallel #/49, and the Purple parallel #/25.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRTMBRLMF_McwDXLnQCK4WXi0odCcSE5fuPc9q_9NwLbes5BdN3zIQeNVGvUfrUtZpzl48yGu7yMXB-gWH8LsSaVZPyOKhb5h7L4zrwmtSUgGDryS8Ma4upv5D4fmsmoz0XgO3D0tQpaQD_Yz5ytIki1RqNT2JngfVsxQ6UFj2xoNDzdFpNYE_b5YX/s1260/cjabrams2022tnowtile2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="589" data-original-width="1260" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRTMBRLMF_McwDXLnQCK4WXi0odCcSE5fuPc9q_9NwLbes5BdN3zIQeNVGvUfrUtZpzl48yGu7yMXB-gWH8LsSaVZPyOKhb5h7L4zrwmtSUgGDryS8Ma4upv5D4fmsmoz0XgO3D0tQpaQD_Yz5ytIki1RqNT2JngfVsxQ6UFj2xoNDzdFpNYE_b5YX/w640-h300/cjabrams2022tnowtile2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">2022 Topps Now Baseball - 845 C.J.

They got to the NLCS but lost to the Philadelphia Phillies. A spark of light in a dark season came on Aug 2nd in the form of 30 Year Old Rookie <a href="https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/m/menesjo01.shtml">Joey Meneses</a> in his MLB Debut Homering in the 7th Inning in a 5-1 home victory vs. New York Mets.</p><p>From that night on through the rest of the season Joey soon became a fan favorite and one of the shining stars of the last part of the season. </p><p>I have 3 Topps Now cards that commemorate a few of his highlights of the 2022 season.</p><div style="text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

His 2022 Home Run Derby Win. Juan is the second Nat to win this event. The previous Nat winner was Bryce Harper the <a href="https://curlywcards.blogspot.com/2020/10/2018-home-run-derby-bryce-harper-winner.html">2018 Home Run Derby</a> winner when Nationals Stadium was the host park. Looking back on my past posts I thought I had missed posting about that, however it was during a time when I was not tagging labels to my posts due to format changes that Blogger had made. I eventually figured out how to do labels for the new format/template. I thought I had the card even though I don't seem to have it on my TCDB collection list.</p><p>Here is Bryce's Home Run Derby Champ Card:</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhz_P3d4sls6Vi6rlI4g3lHx1zAEPHcpXZNsWmz2IBe-NQD4MNFY185Q24YmqtlC5RZAn56a0E9TON5PRBqw6qUU6TgZ1CPxnj1m-ZPexiED3l3M48Ww4yB1Ys9dlQpJEf6_O_OiT0kO5o/s399/bryceharper2018toppsnow467.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="399" data-original-width="285" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhz_P3d4sls6Vi6rlI4g3lHx1zAEPHcpXZNsWmz2IBe-NQD4MNFY185Q24YmqtlC5RZAn56a0E9TON5PRBqw6qUU6TgZ1CPxnj1m-ZPexiED3l3M48Ww4yB1Ys9dlQpJEf6_O_OiT0kO5o/w286-h400/bryceharper2018toppsnow467.jpg" width="286" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b>2018 Topps Now Baseball: 467 Bryce Harper Washington Nationals </b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b>2018 T-Mobile Home Run Derby Champion at Home Ballpark</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb5c1LgNzhEuIEvUcjtg8U8NuSq6gdcxKxvTnptCfc7YcMMZFU_KLT6f9PQKmzSxjMaCLVKsEuWOtveZTZngr7h6YPDQsOe7OnSd3C3CSUYl5dkoXrgzauKR94KmjkkDi2uYT8S9Pvh3E/s400/bryceharper2018toppsnow467back.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="284" data-original-width="400" height="284" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb5c1LgNzhEuIEvUcjtg8U8NuSq6gdcxKxvTnptCfc7YcMMZFU_KLT6f9PQKmzSxjMaCLVKsEuWOtveZTZngr7h6YPDQsOe7OnSd3C3CSUYl5dkoXrgzauKR94KmjkkDi2uYT8S9Pvh3E/w400-h284/bryceharper2018toppsnow467back.jpg" width="400" /></a></div></div><p>Anyway here is the Juan Soto 2002 Topps Now card to celebrate his Home Run Derby Win.</p><div style="text-align: center;"><b><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfWuCPojlluaAxVwy1dHFgx4nVM7UUBMrTzh3GddARp5K_GkuHAl2ZBc2Z0-2-hgmqh1EeK1YiZi-ZM6b-l-An7UcApeUEKk37qSnkvi6qnqW7ylrJl6DKhLswKBb8erp5HXRCery2t_hwYAm-vnGZpTiNWk6XSjpJCvDvD7zSaFAwB7XMf2H63taL/s539/juansoto2022toppsnow567.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="539" data-original-width="385" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfWuCPojlluaAxVwy1dHFgx4nVM7UUBMrTzh3GddARp5K_GkuHAl2ZBc2Z0-2-hgmqh1EeK1YiZi-ZM6b-l-An7UcApeUEKk37qSnkvi6qnqW7ylrJl6DKhLswKBb8erp5HXRCery2t_hwYAm-vnGZpTiNWk6XSjpJCvDvD7zSaFAwB7XMf2H63taL/w286-h400/juansoto2022toppsnow567.jpg" width="286" /></a></div>2022 Topps Now Baseball: 567 </b><b>Juan Soto Washington Nationals</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>2022 T-Mobile Home Run Derby Champion<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSntr2-J6uZzz8GEhd3C9yNAiYcE5sY4b7OSmIcwsJID0lJIfpODgIEf7usXTtKKBDm8LYqhy2EODLig51YwWvlrlPwHvW7ISku7VsNkLx_Cdioz7-YPTqyETghh4UlTpLRNfI61OrS0hkj5wbmDX-jcxbbNxj1555y9fGPVTIV8CrSm5qOfvAAI3d/s548/juansoto2022toppsnow567back.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="400" data-original-width="548" height="293" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSntr2-J6uZzz8GEhd3C9yNAiYcE5sY4b7OSmIcwsJID0lJIfpODgIEf7usXTtKKBDm8LYqhy2EODLig51YwWvlrlPwHvW7ISku7VsNkLx_Cdioz7-YPTqyETghh4UlTpLRNfI61OrS0hkj5wbmDX-jcxbbNxj1555y9fGPVTIV8CrSm5qOfvAAI3d/w400-h293/juansoto2022toppsnow567back.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /></b></div>CaptKirk42http://www.blogger.com/profile/16039278539984069944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969183451059332760.post-11008195969528522172022-08-31T12:00:00.005-04:002022-08-31T12:00:00.191-04:00Slugging Back to Back to Back<p>This card might be a little bit of Deja Vu almost but not quite. A few years ago (2017) a <a href="https://curlywcards.blogspot.com/2017/07/back-to-back-to-back-to-back.html">quartet</a> of Nats sluggers hit back to back to back TO BACK homers in a game, well this year (2022) the struggling Nats did a trio back to back to back.</p><p>In this frustrating losing season on Jun 11 a little bit of sunshine lifted the season a tiny bit. Juan Soto, Nelson Cruz, and Josh Bell hit back to back to back homers scoring 4 runs against The Milwaukee Brewers (traditionally and annoyingly pesky opponent) in an 8-6 victory.</p><p>Here is the Topps Now card that commemorates that event.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbqmDtn2-5f8PM1NCV8yb2g2almPrrcy1ndD4TAjJI7qca0PT1u-QrS3IcauTDve93HGus3AuCgxPVt-f4wa7zCCZJfz5BbMqmWbr2pdiBITY5L0ztV8sBFOMgOJ1XCum7KHG2LfpT8hSxh-hTqeVjf9aUKGeqZcyXb-X7pSSnCKjgeQ-11E8MlGH4/s560/natsb2b2b2022.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="404" data-original-width="560" height="462" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbqmDtn2-5f8PM1NCV8yb2g2almPrrcy1ndD4TAjJI7qca0PT1u-QrS3IcauTDve93HGus3AuCgxPVt-f4wa7zCCZJfz5BbMqmWbr2pdiBITY5L0ztV8sBFOMgOJ1XCum7KHG2LfpT8hSxh-hTqeVjf9aUKGeqZcyXb-X7pSSnCKjgeQ-11E8MlGH4/w640-h462/natsb2b2b2022.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">2022 Topps Now Baseball 331 Juan Soto, Nelson Cruz, Josh Bell Washington Nationals<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9pHUD50jZJvK0UjdNs-Ou3wmHPDyr5hCuCLm0horrlAYwWImSMqulbJjQB7dfn9NyEHrnnfxmj73sGQyGjDObWXDFoSFa-3xSWAC1ENkYCVFQ48-FfQwFLvWGskQ9eDCfUMBTvENSCC8bnsZwj_TzcgD6kDvYN_GByXJtmrlZjzbGiQZKEXe7agX_/s533/natsb2b2bback.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="385" data-original-width="533" height="462" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9pHUD50jZJvK0UjdNs-Ou3wmHPDyr5hCuCLm0horrlAYwWImSMqulbJjQB7dfn9NyEHrnnfxmj73sGQyGjDObWXDFoSFa-3xSWAC1ENkYCVFQ48-FfQwFLvWGskQ9eDCfUMBTvENSCC8bnsZwj_TzcgD6kDvYN_GByXJtmrlZjzbGiQZKEXe7agX_/w640-h462/natsb2b2bback.jpg" width="640" /></a></div></div><p>Sadly a few months later Juan Soto and Josh Bell would be traded to the San Diego Padres. In the final two games of their last 4 game series guess which two players would do San Diego's only scoring for those two games? Yep Juan Soto and Josh Bell. In game 3 they hit back to back homers giving the Padres a 2-1 victory. The next night Josh Bell hit a 2 run homer giving the Padres a second 2-1 win in two nights.</p><p><br /></p>CaptKirk42http://www.blogger.com/profile/16039278539984069944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969183451059332760.post-18301712090589167972022-07-31T20:06:00.000-04:002022-07-31T20:06:07.958-04:002022 Topps Team Set (Base) Complete<p> I now have the complete 2022 Topps Baseball: Nats Base Team Set. I am only missing the 2 Juan Soto SPs (1 SP and 1 SSP) I might never get those two. So I am pretty happy about that. I completed <a href="https://curlywcards.blogspot.com/2022/05/varying-shades-of-gray.html">Series 1</a> a while back and just recently completed Series 2 including the Stephen Strasburg image variant. I got it from an Ebay auction for $7.50 + only like a buck for shipping. I was the opening bidder when it started at 99¢. The card was delivered on 05 July 2022 estimated delivery was between then and 08 Jul. It was sent via the special Ebay Standard Envelope and their special tracking number system. Tracking shows this card as being still at the point of origin and in transit. Tracking says "<i>It's still on the way</i>".

I am currently bidding in an Ebay auction for it, so far I'm the only bidder at the opening 99¢ bid. There is at least one other auction for another copy that started at the same price. <b>UPDATE:</b> The bidding on Strasburg t-shirt card is now up to 4 bids at $5.50. I'm still "<b><span style="color: #04ff00;">Winning</span></b>" it but it ends in 2 days Sunday 26 Jun at 1:46 pm PDT.</p><p>Finally we have a nice cool vintage piece. It is actually a sticker/decal not a card from 1961. This beauty is from the Team Logo Decals insert set from 1961 Fleer Baseball Greats Set. There is No Number it is The Washington Senators Logo. I might try finding the other teams from this insert set.

Card number 43 <a href="https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/g/grayjo03.shtml">Josiah Gray</a> RC short print w/ his knee up and him turned to the side (about to fall over). That leaves the two Juan Soto short prints for me to hunt down (a short print and a super short print), plus the NL batting average leaders card with Trea Turner, Juan Soto, and Bryce Harper, I'm getting ready to get that one on Sportlots in a huge order I'm piecing together over there.<p></p><p>Oh the odd thing with this order was the "buffer" cards that the dealer packed around the purchased card. I've seen all sorts of things sellers have used and it is common practice to include bonus "buffer" cards that are usually super common cards that are barely worth part of a penny. This seller was no exception except that there were 8 of these bonus cards total, but only 2 different ones. One a 2022 Topps 1st Edition Baseball card 289 Nate Pearson Toronto Blue Jays and a 2016 Bowman Draft Chrome Baseball (1st Bowman) BDC-29 Justin Dunn New York Mets. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0BnWMemHqybzEr_R4BgZw8u5uCiU9phL-KZHQMz3JTV4icApdFYBaBz38aNJxTXf8pS799WYHb6l95Q6nJ78BpBjZr8Ax6FpmmWpdSutxuuiiAUlWzLoS-WvQ8YjEzs1PnVxHPMsedoRE1PrHuZt7n_1zR-ff4NjDbZopftG1gy6oPWywaYvYI_HX/s1064/natepearsontile.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="382" data-original-width="1064" height="230" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0BnWMemHqybzEr_R4BgZw8u5uCiU9phL-KZHQMz3JTV4icApdFYBaBz38aNJxTXf8pS799WYHb6l95Q6nJ78BpBjZr8Ax6FpmmWpdSutxuuiiAUlWzLoS-WvQ8YjEzs1PnVxHPMsedoRE1PrHuZt7n_1zR-ff4NjDbZopftG1gy6oPWywaYvYI_HX/w640-h230/natepearsontile.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />How many of each were there?

However as usual I kept procrastinating and putting things off and it would involved a lot of scanning that I didn't want to do. So here is just a Solo card from Juan Soto from that batch. It is an insert from the 2021 Topps Baseball Set from the 1952 Topps Redux Insert Set.. A retro insert set of 50 cards using top modern players in the style of the famous 1952 Topps Baseball design. I like when they do these I'd rather they do them here than in the Archives sets. I also like the Heritage sets which are from 49 years ago. With Archives they overuse all the designs so I would rather they do this.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhatsoJf1vUEGDltP5N8KyxSo-yV95-r7RNXG67OKstTiv6SJMzjT8B0DWS1_F6eEcsObmGqsJmKB8ncNapgzgja8ru2EIGUs1ukWGW2xYdiPXbOdvVhwaXHcinA7Jp0JWnfHjffEKaoenz-IRjn4XKj9QX6YDQFrwXUcquMctDwZNDXtg8A3bKZB9c=s548" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="548" data-original-width="392" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhatsoJf1vUEGDltP5N8KyxSo-yV95-r7RNXG67OKstTiv6SJMzjT8B0DWS1_F6eEcsObmGqsJmKB8ncNapgzgja8ru2EIGUs1ukWGW2xYdiPXbOdvVhwaXHcinA7Jp0JWnfHjffEKaoenz-IRjn4XKj9QX6YDQFrwXUcquMctDwZNDXtg8A3bKZB9c=w286-h400" width="286" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">2021 Topps Baseball - 2952 Topps Baseball Redux</div><div style="text-align: center;">T52-9 Juan Soto Washington Nationals</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjkdt7T8ZWBCq2obt9Q6R2R6fouIyIW-7iut3Xzr_URXfENOEN2Pk-ol3rL3LyWptmlXbRRP9ZAvjAV5ASvnfRiKsKxvp2oaCUqclH3az8SrhiND7M5EYYKxE74XtcHj-kPqidhekjFoqd1fU3ux9Fd9c77BI007ZVJGhQnS85h9Fd_k57QWRRuRY4m=s563" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="400" data-original-width="563" height="284" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjkdt7T8ZWBCq2obt9Q6R2R6fouIyIW-7iut3Xzr_URXfENOEN2Pk-ol3rL3LyWptmlXbRRP9ZAvjAV5ASvnfRiKsKxvp2oaCUqclH3az8SrhiND7M5EYYKxE74XtcHj-kPqidhekjFoqd1fU3ux9Fd9c77BI007ZVJGhQnS85h9Fd_k57QWRRuRY4m=w400-h284" width="400" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>CaptKirk42http://www.blogger.com/profile/16039278539984069944noreply@blogger.com1
