Mini Mall pt 11 - Turkey Reds

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.

...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.
