Welcome

This blog is about sports cards. I tend to only purchase cheap items so don't come hear expecting to see big money cards. My teams collections are Chicago White Sox and Michigan Wolverines. I also have a bunch of player collections.

Sox Prospects

I got 3 cards in 3 different envelopes today but I'm only going to show 2 today. I'm waiting on one other coming in the mail and I'll show that one along with the one I'm not showing today. I picked up a couple of Chicago White Sox cards for the Sox Collection.


This is a die cut card, it doesn't show it as well as I'd like but you get what you get. This card of Chris Snopek is a 1996 Upper Deck Future Stock Prospects comes to me for $.17/shipped. If I remember correctly, he was supposed to replace Robin Ventura but never really panned out. That seems to happen a lot with prospects in our system. Let's hope that trend doesn't continue with our make over this season.


This came up on my search for under a $.25 with free shipping and since it was an auto, I went ahead and put $2 on it. Luckily, it only took half of that to bring it home. I got it for $1.04/shipped. He was alright as a Sox starter but he found his niche coming out of the bullpen for other teams, even had a number of years as a decent closer.

    Wiki says Rauch is the tallest player in MLB history and that he won an Olympic gold medal. That certainly makes his rather nice auto (on card) for $1.04 seem like a steal to me.

Sorry about the word verification, but blogger sucks at filtering out the comments as of late. As bad as their last update is.
