The Quest

The Baltimore Orioles have been in town since '54 and have had over 900 men don their uniform. My goal is to obtain a signed card of each player. If you have something I need, or see something you want, don't be shy, we can make a deal.

Collection Statistics

Total Players 877/977 = 89.25%
1991 Orioles Crown Set
Total Players 309/465 = 66.45%
Alive Players 274/369 = 74.25

Thrice Harper

Wifey decided giving birth to our son was a good enough anniversary present for me.  I would have agreed if new baseball product wasn't on the market.  So, I forced her hand a threw a blaster of Bowman in the shopping cart at Target.  I hid it below the infant clothes and baby gas drops.  Sneaky. Sneaky.

The first four packs I opened had these:

Bryce Harper Bowman Chrome Prospects (x2)
Bryce Harper Bowman Prospects
Yu Darvish Bowman SP Rookie

Bowman Gold Allen Craig #57
Bowman Gold Ian Desmond #115
Bowman Gold Lucas Duda #171
Bowman Gold Dan Haren #37
Bowman Gold Desmond Jennings #136
Bowman Gold Cory Luebke #130
Bowman Gold Brian McCann #70
Bowman Gold Jimmy Rollins #80
Bowman Silver Ice Vance Worley #105


And the best card of the box, not for trade.
Adam Jones 2012 Bowman International #45
Such a gorgeous card.  This is going at the top of the IP list.  Hopefully when I get to a game this year, this bad boy will come back with some blue scribble across the front.  Everything else is available, just let me know.

    Nice Pull on the Jones International. I wonder if he will be asked to play for Team USA in next years WBC?
