I don't have any real goals in the Diamond Giveaway. There are no Topps cards that I need for my Tino Martinez collection. I'd love to add some older Yankee cards that I don't have, but the cards I've unlocked aren't sexy enough to land something from the 1950's or early 1960's.
I've actually set my sights on these two cards - 2011 Diamond Die Cuts. I think these are pretty cool, and there a bunch of Yanks...current players and HOFers. These are the two I'd like in particular:
Of course, I'd love the ARod or Mo or Mantle or Ruth, but these guys might be more realistic. I think I'll have to unlock a few more cards to give myself a better chance...as of now I only have two 1974's (Jim Merritt and Tom McCraw) and two 1988's. However, it's fun to actually have a target and something to pursue.
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.
