Normally I don't just order a single card on SportLots, but I recently found this Gary Sanchez 2011 Tristar Pursuit Copper (or Bronze?) card #'d to 99. It was actually listed as "Orange" - either way I wanted it because it was only $.18 + $.70 shipping. So I quickly pulled the trigger on a single card. Total transaction = $.88. The same card is on eBay right now with a $4.99 BIN listing. This is a nice addition to my small Gary Sanchez collection.
He's had a bit of a slow start for Charleston, but he's only 18 years old playing in A ball. He's playing against guys three and four years older than him. Gary is currently ranked as Baseball America's 30th best prospect in the game.
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.
