I haven't added many cards to my son's HOF binder recently. I've gotten some cards for him fellow bloggers, which is always most appreciated. The little punk is going to have a really nice collection that he can sell when he's 14 to buy the new Call of Duty Game on PS9.

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.

Rance'd by Napkin Doon
I’ve been by Rance'd by Napkin Doon. In what will surely
become 2013’s version of Bipping, Nap included three Rance Mulliniks cards in
our latest card exchange. Little does he know, these cards are already on the
way to Rance for a TTM ‘graph. I’ll have the last laugh, Nap. Just wait.
He actually sent me some cards I wanted as well. My favorite
of the lot was a group of 2013 Bowman Yankees with some fancy flags in the
background. Interesting that the USA players have their state flag in the
background instead of a US flag.
He also sent this awesome Jeter. I love Diamond Kings.
Not only did he send me cards, but included three cards for
Joey’s HOF binder. The highlight for me is this 1960 Fleer Mickey Cochrane.
Such a cool card from a great, underrated set. Nap also sent a Goose, and a
Gehrig. Since I’ll never own an original Gehrig, I’ll gladly put this in the
binder, as I might as well have an awesome card like this Diamond King instead
of a Topps Golden Moment or something.
And in his signature move, Napkin included a pack of 1990
Topps. The highlight for me was this Edgar Martinez. Look at that pornstache
and sweet jacket.
