Season Awards Drop 5 Cards
-
Program
Pack
-
Phillies get a couple of cards to take them out of last place in the in the NL for # of cards. Now they are tied with the Nationals and Cardinals with 12.
The Astros getting a Yordan card takes them to 10 cards. The rest of the most in need AL teams still got no new cards. I believe the Rays, White Sox and Guardians are still at 9 cards with the rays not receiving a single diamond yet outside of team captains and team affinity.

Made his major league debut. Sometimes Fanatics pushes it a bit with the Topps Now collection.

Most rookies don't actually deserve their cards based on performance. But apparently Topps and SDS sees their debuts as possibly the only shot these guys will have of getting a boosted card.

All about the money, though. Fanatics sells the Topps Now cards on demand in real time, so if they think enough people will buy the card the next day, whatever the reason, the guy gets a Topps Now.
Of course, SDS still has to choose to include it in the game...

You have better readers than me. I had to pull it up on Topps.

I'm just glad the Red Sox cards aren't in the pack.
-
@x814xmafia glad to see Booser got a card. Quite the story for that dude.
-
I just have to buy Suarez card and then do the program for the Bohm card and I'm fine with that

The cards that got passed over for Leiter:
Scheuman, another A
Knack, another Dodger (who got a Topps pitcher last week)
Acuna
Doc Gooden (if only...)
Guys that already have flashbacks -
I'm going to be keeping my eyes on that Reed Garrett... if I can get the pack before it leaves the store I will but definitely gonna be looking at the Marketplace price... it would be cool if they make these packs earnable/discoverable in a timely fashion... I know they recently put the Seoul Korea/Spring Breakout choice pack where you pick which pack you want into something because I earned two of those packs last night, but I'm hoping they start doing the same for these Season Awards Drop Packs while the cards are still in season.
