They must be short printing the Harper or delaying Harper autos for later release...I don't know....typical Topps shenanigans. They are a slimy corporation.

Somebody posted results of a 20 case break and I think they said they got 4 Harpers, which isn't too far off the typical print expectation. Right now I'm guessing I've just been unlucky, but I won't be surprised if I hear later that they were collated poorly.

Thanks. Now I've got a chance!

I was originally hoping I might win the contest with my Trey McNutt pick, but now I'm just pulling for you to pull a Harper or nice colored refractor auto parallel for your sake

Jordan Swagerty and 57 pitches. Thanks for doing this.

Case #5, Box #11

Prospect refractor /500: Garrett Gould
Cyan printing plate USA U18 auto 1/1: Cole Irvin

Comments: No prospect auto; probably a miscollate with the box in this case with two autos. I was just thinking that this would be the first time in years without having to send Topps a letter asking for a junk auto replacement. Oh well. The plate auto is cool, but my guess is that the CV is about $20 on auction. Here comes the contest box!
Grade: D
No further contest entries accepted -- good luck all!

GOOD LUCK

In the third pack I pulled an auto -- I kid you not, it's Bryce Harper. Centering is 60-40 R-L but TB is perfect and back is perfect. No bubbling or streaking on the auto, and all the other attributes are excellent. Wow. I really don't need the heart attack.

Anyway, that will be the contest card UNLESS I pull a second prospect auto in this box, which could happen. In that event, the last prospect auto would be the contest winner. 20youksox and insidethevines both predicted Harper would be the last auto pulled, picking 88 and 1, respectively, as the last serial number I pull. So anything higher than 44 would be a win for 20youksox. Stay tuned. I'm opening the rest of the packs now.
