While the 2008 inserts were a dime, the 2009 inserts were a whole 20 cents each so I had to be choosy about them. I attacked the Turkey Reds and picked out the 5 best since (once again) I had no wantlist on me. Here they are for your edification and enjoyment.
TR6 Ian Kinsler
TR16 Joe Mauer
TR24 Curtis Granderson
TR32 Shane Victorino
TR43 Torii Hunter
All-Stars all, except for Kinsler who got f-ing robbed. What the heck is wrong with those voters anyway??

Curtis looks like he's on a golf course.
There is very little in life more rewarding than smacking the hell out of a golf ball with a baseball bat.
what is wrong with the voters he asks....
two words...
...Yadier Molina
This is turning out to be one helluva mini-mall experience! I am still eagerly awaiting the NKOTB pack break!
Turkey Reds were my first must-haves since starting collecting. Glad that you picked up a few.
great backgrounds on these cards. the turkey reds i've pulled have all had crap backgrounds. the hunter is especially nice.
btw did i mention i hate A&G?
You mean Yadier Molina, the best defensive catcher in baseball? Yeah. Definitely didn't deserve to be an all-star. No matter that he handles the bat better than most catchers as well.
It's not like he wasn't one of the only players on the NL squad capable of driving in a run...
I think there were more glaring omissions than Yadir Molina, but the NL needs to try and do something different if they want to win one of these years.
