The Curious Case of Anthony Rizzo

by elmesero5 on 03-02-2013 at 11:38 PM
On Tuesday, I had to swing by Wal-Mart to pick up a few things on my way home. I stopped by the baseball card aisle and grabbed a couple of rack packs of 2010 Bowman Draft Picks and Prospects which had been marked down from $5 to $2.98 as I made my way to check out.

I opened my two packs in the car. I got a few nice cards including a Tyson Ross blue parallel and a Mitch Moreland RC that I can use for IP graphing sometime, but largely my haul wasn't anything special.

2013 Littleton Reserve Base Card Design

by elmesero5 on 02-11-2013 at 12:25 PM
A few weeks ago, I began kicking around some ideas for my new custom design for this year. I was asked by my good buddy CW13 to make a custom for UNC standout Colin Moran, so I decided I was going to try something completely different. Something just wasn't quite right with the way it turned out but I was under a bit of a time crunch so I had to just grit my teeth and finish it. I knew that wasn't what I wanted from my new set and it annoyed me so that I stayed up until 4 a.m. creating this:

2012 TTM Year In Review: Top 30, Part 3

by elmesero5 on 01-02-2013 at 02:11 AM
And, finally, we arrive at the Top 10. Who will be #1? Well, there's only one way to find out.

10. B.J. Surhoff



A fairly nontraditional TTM signer, Surhoff apparently go the itch in 2012 because he started signing like crazy. As another prominent player from my youth, I was excited to add him to my collection.

2012 TTM Year In Review: Top 30, Part 2

by elmesero5 on 01-02-2013 at 02:10 AM
I must say that I'm very pleased to see that you have arrived. I was getting a little worried for a minute there. Let's not waste any more time. Onward!

20. Eddie Perez



When I was younger, the most readily accessible baseball programming was either the Cubs/White Sox on WGN or the the Braves on TBS. Because of this, I became somewhat of a White Sox and Braves

2012 TTM Year In Review: Top 30, Part 1

by elmesero5 on 01-02-2013 at 02:08 AM
As we bid adieu to 2012, I would like to compile the best of the best from my TTM successes of the last 12 months. The returns will not necessarily be judged solely by the caliber of player but also factors like difficulty, visual appeal and nostalgic value. That being said, of course I reserve the right the judge accordingly as I see fit based on an aggregate of any or all of the factors listed above. Let's get to it!
