A few weeks ago, I ordered some lucky bags and I found some cool relic cards. Interestingly, I found a Manny Ramirez relic card. It’s from the 2006 Upper Deck. On the front, we can see that Manny Ramirez was in the Red Sox jersey with a huge piece of game-used jersey.
Aaron Judge made it into the big leagues on August 13, 2016. He played 27 games in 2016, hitting .179/.263/.345 with 4 home runs and 10 RBI. It wasn’t a great start. However, since 2017, Judge has been one of the most dangerous hitters in the majors. He has played in the majors for 10 seasons. In these 10 seasons, he has become a 3-time MVP award winner, 7-time All-Star and 5-time Silver Slugger winner. Moreover, he just won the batting title last season.
In mid-January, a huge trade happened. The St. Louis Cardinals sent 8-time All-Star Nolan Arenado to the Arizona Diamondbacks and acquired Jack Martinez. While watching the news about the trade, I just think about Nolan Arenado’s career.
Earlier this month, huge news about the free agent market is probably that Alex Bregman and the Chicago Cubs agreed to a 5-year deal. Bregman has played in the majors for 10 seasons and is a 3-time All-Star.
Around 2 or 3 weeks ago, I received some lucky bags that I ordered. After opening the first pack, I found a Thomas Pannone autograph card. It’s from the 2019 Topps Chrome.
The 2025 Topps Chrome Update was released in December 2025. This brand has been a popular choice in the market because collectors are looking for rookie patch autograph cards. Well, it’s not that easy to find a rookie patch autograph card. So, my expectation is modest.
I read a post on Threads a few weeks ago. It was about a rookie player’s performance. His performance wasn’t impressive in his first season in the majors. However, it demonstrated that something is worth watching. That rookie’s performance in the high leverage situation was good.
A few weeks ago, I found that some lucky bags were available on an online sports card shop. I decided to buy 2 lucky bags. A week after placing the order, the lucky bags arrived.
