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.

Bowman Platinum Blast Off

Picked up a blaster today, much to the dismay of Wifey.  Whoops.  Well here is what I got, pack by pack.
Pack 1:
Miguel Cabrera #6-Tigers
Drew Pomeranz #69-Rockies
Stephen Strasburg #80-Nationals
Taijuan Walker Prospect Autographs Green Refractor #AP-TW #'d 92/399
Even a $30 card right off the bat didn't make Wifey happy.  Oh well, I am.  Hopefully this could help pay for the blaster.  Not a bad pack to start us off.
