3 Picks Topps Clearly Authentic, 3 Green /99
Not a monster hit like Ohtani, but in a Hit Draft of 2018 Topps Clearly Authentic, I had two picks and landed #6 and #18, with an extra card at #23. I actually got 3 Green Autos /99 (Hoskins, Jackson Stephens, and Alcantara).
Not bad considering there were 6 unnumbered autos in the break.
I picked Hoskins /99 over Bo Jackson Redemption (base auto). Would you do this choice?

The question is how long will I wait for the redemption?

Bo Knows!
I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

They arrived today from the breaker, and the Hoskins is not a redemption (the Bo was...my bad!)

Those Bo's sell pretty well, and even if you had to wait, you could have swapped it out for something of equal value. But Hoskins is nice too. Must have been a great case for that to be there at #6.
Trading for cut autos of baseball HOFers I don't have, autos of current and future Cleveland Guardians, and anything else that catches my eye!

Must have been a great case for that to be there at #6. Yep, I agree. There was Acuna base auto, 1 out of 5, Smoltz /25, Clint Frazier /25, two out of 50, 3 out of 75, I got all 3 out of /99, the Bo Jackson base auto...
I never do those kinds of breaks but after watching the 1st 2 cases have nothing to smile about, I took a gamble on the 3rd case being great.
