I've been out of the hobby for about 4 years now, and so I have a good idea of what types of cards are good, but not a good idea of what players are hot to collect these days.

Anyway, I just got done done cracking 1 pack of 2011 Topps Tribute, and 1 box of 2010 Bowman Platinum, here are the non-base hits:

2011 Tribute:

Buster Posey/Carlos Santana "Tribute to the Stars" Gold dual auto, #14/25
Cal Ripken Jr. blue parallel #91/199
Redemption for an Auto Relic of Monte Irvin


2010 Bowman Platinum

2 box topper redemptions for Bonus Certified Autos, both turned out to be for Mauricio Robles refractor autos

Matt Barnes multi-color relic patch auto #421/740

Miguel Sano refractor auto

Rich Poythress green refractor auto #187/199

Shelby Miller green refractor #300/499

Justin Upton (gold refractor?, doesn't say the word "refractor" on the back though), #039/539

Mike Montgomery Refractor #611/999

Jesus Montero (again, looks like a refractor and is thick, but doesn't say refractor on back) #744/999

Peter O'Brien (no refractor word on back, but looks like gold refractor) #202/539

Tyler Anderson (no refractor word on back, but looks like regular refractor) #154/999

Josh Bell (no refractor word on back, but looks like regular refractor)
#923/999

David Ortiz (no refractor word on back, but looks like regular refractor)
#855/999

Justin Upton (looks like a gold refractor) #039/539


Was this a pretty standard break, good or bad? Thanks for any input, just kinda curious how i did.

The Posey/Santana is a hot card. The Sano auto is also a good pull.


If you ever decide to trade I would be interested in the Cal Ripken for my collection.

Pretty good I'd say. The Posey/Santana auto is a pretty sweet card, both were big time rookies last year. The Sano auto is pretty sweet, would love to trade for it maybe. The Matt Barnes could be nice. I don't think he's been drafted yet so could end up being nice depending how good he gets. That sucks about getting dupes from the redemptions, same thing happened to me. Had three redemption cards and entered them and got three dupes and already had the card from an earlier redemption so now I have four, pretty lame...

[homerjg007]

would love the Mike Montgomery - pls send me a PM and we can discuss my Ripken cards

James and Shaun-

Thanks for the input, I pretty much figured the Posey/Santana was a good pull. Didn't know about the Sano.

Homer-

Sorry, but I'm a huge Royals fan too. Live in Omaha and I'll be watching Monty pitch up the street all summer.

[twins are the best]

i would love the posey/santana dual great pull!

I can use this card for my set:
Peter O'Brien (no refractor word on back, but looks like gold refractor) #202/539

PLMK what I can get you for it, my WWW in my sig is up to date, would also like a shot at the Posey/Santana...LMK
