2014 Elite Baseball Blaster from Target
I went to my local Target to see what kind of boxes they had, I saw a 2008 Topps Chrome for $49.99 that has 2 autos, but then noticed the Blasters of 2014 Elite also with 2 autos, as much as I like the Topps chrome, the last 2 boxes I had, had redemptions. This is what I got, tell me what you guys think.

Adrian rondon was the top international prospect this year. I think he was 15 when he was signed lol, so lord only knows what will happen when he begins to play in the states. I wouldn't mind trading for it if you wanted to deal it. They are selling for about $15 on eBay, so I'd be willing to do $30 BV in trade. Lmk

I think I will hold onto it until they are priced, but I will let you know.

Adrian Rondon is definitely someone to keep an eye on, I have only seen redemptions for his auto though. If you have his auto in hand it may be worth a little more. And Raicel Iglesias reminds me of Aroldis Chapman. I think you killed the blaster, I am always disappointed with the Topps Chrome anyway.

Right, I enjoy busting the Older Topps chrome, but for 30 bucks, I couldn't resist the Elite. I have always liked the Elite Series. I went to another Target in our area and found 2 2013 hanger boxes that guarantee an auto, Got one redemption which was expired, ( they redeemed it) and a Mark Appel auto to /50, which is pretty good.

That's a whole lot better the blaster that I opened the other day.

Right on the Aroldis, he looks like him but has nowhere near the velocity. I have a hobby box of this coming tomorrow, hoping it is nice to me.
