Here Come My Heritage Posts

I busted a retail box and a pack of Heritage.  Here are some of the results.  

Floating heads! Floating heads everywhere!  Ok, well not everywhere, but on some of the cards, at least, such as this NL HR Leaders card that features Albert Pujols giving us all the don't mess with me side-eye.
I pulled three Yankees below.  The Veteran Masters card is interesting.  A knock on Rivera's age?  I kid, of course.
This might be a dumb question, so if it is I apologize now.  What's the deal with the logo on Melancon's hat? Is that some kind of alternate Red Sox logo that I'm just ignorant about?  

Also, a reminder that the Cardinals won the World Series.
These cards below were the three Phillies I pulled out of the box.  Of these three, only one is a guarantee to start Opening Day.  That would be Carlos "Chooch" Ruiz.  Maybe it's just me, but Ruiz looks extra fat in the picture on this card.  Like, really fat and not athletic.

Domonic Brown has an outside shot of starting in left field. He's not fat.
And here are some Braves.  I keep hearing rumblings that the Braves are going to be dominant this year in the NL East.  Heck, nothing surprises me anymore, so we'll go with that.
They can have the Wildcard as the Phillies win the division :-).

  1. Yes that is the Red Sox alternate that all the fans hate. They only used it about 3 times last year because of the uproar it caused.

    As ugly as it is I need that Melacon and Pedroia...

  3. Julie,
    Here is a couple of comments on the the NL leaders card Why did they airbrush Stanton's hat to the new Miami hat when he hit the homers in 2011 they were Florida? and if your going to update them to 2012 should it be AL home run Leaders with Pujols and Fielder having airbrushed Angels and Tiger hats? only kidding but can they stop with the airbrushing already most of the time it looks like crap especially when they do whole uni's. Thanks, Dion
