2008 Baseball Heroes Box Break

Here's a box break we did at the Winter Warm Up. Let me know if you are interested in trading. We opened boxes of 2005 Topps Gallery and 2006 Upper Deck F/X too. No videos, but will try to scan the hits for trades.

This is a box break from New Year's Eve. Let me know if you are interested in trading!

Ike Is Back

Hello and Happy New Year! Back in 2012 after a fall break. Baseball in St. Louis has had its ups and downs this fall but things in 2012 are looking up. We are going to the Cardinals Winter Warm Up in two weeks and hope to get plenty of autographs, open plenty of packs, and maybe even take a picture with the World Series trophy.

Lets start the New Year right with a reminder of the World Series - confetti from the celebration!!!

Daily Dimwit Artifacts Break

Hey guys - the Daily Dimwit is running a 2006 Artifacts case break. Plenty of good teams left.

Futures Game

Here are two cool Cardinal relics from 2010 Pro Debut. I like that these cards are numbered and have giant jerseys on them. I think these will be perfect for autographs at the next Cardinals Winter Warm Up.

Eduardo Sanchez 187 of 299 – Sanchez made a splash earlier this year out of the bullpen but has been out with shoulder problems for the last two months.


Francisco Samuel Gold 25 of 25 – Samuel is supposed to be our closer in a couple of years but has been passed by Fernando Salas, Lance Lynn and Sanchez.


Let’s just hope they can give us what this guy has since 2006. Get well Waino!!!

Lucky A&G - Two Relics!!!

2011 Seaver Nameplate

Pulled this out of a jumbo pack. Its up for trade.

2009 Icons Box Break

These are the cards from the box of 2009 Icons I posted about last month. This was a lot of fun to open and getting the Ozzie and Markakis cards made it even better. Everything else is up for trade!

First – The Numbered Cards (all numbered to 999)



The Relics


The Lettermen (20/40 and 1/35)


The Auto (80 of 199)

New Sizemore Cards

Two more for my favorite player binder. The first is really a Josh Barfield card but the second is pretty cool.
2007 Co-Signers Josh Barfield / Grady Sizemore numbered 196 of 225



2009 Upper Deck Grady Sizemore Starquest Black Ultra Rare

Jim Edmonds 2002 Playoff: Another Oddball Relic

My dad brought this home from one of his business trips. He covered most of the card and asked me to guess what type of relic this was. It was a shoe!!!

2002 Playoff Jim Edmonds Shoe Relic numbered 11 of 50


Here’s the back of the card:


Does anyone know if there are wrist band relic patch cards from this product?

Hey Yadi, Yadi–Seeing Double

Yadi looks like he just picked off someone at first base again!

2010 Bowman Gold and Blue. The blue is numbered 435 of 520 and is close to the light blue the Cardinals used to wear.


I’m looking for other color versions of this card and have plenty to trade!

Met’s Trade with The Sandlot

We completed a trade last month with the The Sandlot. We sent Mets, he sent Cardinals. Here's some of the loot!

2006 Flair Showcase Albert Pujols Emerald 91 / 150
2007 Topps Chrome Jim Edmonds Refractor 24 / 660
2009 Topps Gold Border Kyle Lohse 1349 / 2009


2007 UD Elements Skip Schumaker Auto
2007 Turkey Red Brad Thompson Jersey

2011 Topps Series Two Jumbo Pack

My dad picked up a jumbo pack on a business trip. Mostly base and I didn’t get anything cool with the Diamond code card but there was one cool card:

Harmon Killebrew Leather Nameplate


I’ll trade this for a similar Cardinals nameplate if anyone has one.

2009 Donruss Americana

I did a pack break of packs I won playing a dice game at last month’s Flea Market. I also won a blaster of 2009 Donruss Americana that my mom and I opened when we got home. I really didn’t want the box and hoped for a baseball blaster but the man at the booth thought I’d like it. I didn’t really like the cards but I did like this card:

John Wayne Relic numbered 33 of 500


I don’t really know who he is but the adults thought it was pretty cool.

2001 Donruss Fan Club Albert Pujols Jersey Card

I don’t know if this counts as a Pujols rookie card or not but I think its pretty cool.
