MOAR OBLIGATORY RONALD AND TRAE

HAVEN'T DONE ONE OF THESE IN FOREVER. SINCE BOTH OF THESE DUDES ARE PLAYING AT THE SAME TIME UNTIL AT LEAST TOMORROW LET'S HAVE SOME COOL RONALD AND TRAE CARDS

2019-20 PANINI CHRONICLES BASE TRAE YOUNG


I'VE SAID IN THE PAST THE CHRONICLES BASE CARDS WITH THE HEADLINE DESIGN TURNED ME OFF ON THE SET. THIS HEADLINE WAS THE REASON I BOUGHT THE CARD THOUGH. TRAE IS KNOWN FOR THREE POINT SHOTS FROM THE LOGO AND I LIKE HAVING THIS COMMEMORATED IN CARD FORM. I THINK THIS MIGHT BE THE FIRST CHRONICLES CARD FROM 2019 I HAVE AS WELL, OR AT LEAST THE ONLY ONE I BOUGHT ON PURPOSE. EVEN THOUGH TRAE IS NOW THE LEAGUE'S SUPERVILLAIN HIS CARDS HAVEN'T BEEN EASIER TO FIND LATELY. TRAE YOUNG GETS TO PLAY AN ENTIRE SEASON WITH QUIN SNYDER BALL THIS YEAR. THINGS SHOULD BE FUN NO MATTER IF THE WIN TOTAL GOES UP OR DOWN BUT I THINK IT'LL GO UP LIKE A TRAE FOUR-POINTER



2022 CHROME RONALD ACUÑA JR. NEW CLASSICS


GOTTA SAY THIS NLDS AGAINST THE PHILLIES IS TERRIFYING ME BUT RONALD IS STILL DOING RONALD THINGS AT LEAST. HE STRAIGHT UP STOLE A RUN LAST NIGHT WHICH IS GOOD WHEN YOU ONLY WIN BY A RUN. THIS WAS A PICKUP AT MY LAST LCS RUN (THE ONE WITH THE DOG FOOD CARD) AND WAS THE ONLY RONALD OR TRAE CARD THAT DIDN'T GET PUT BACK. I LOVE THE SHINIES AND THIS IS A REFRACTOR SO I COULDN'T PASS IT UP. SOME DO NOT LIKE THE CLASNEWSICS TEXT AT THE TOP AND ON THE BACK BUT I DIG THE MIX OF RETRO KITSCH AND ATARI PIXELS IN THE DESIGN. THE BACK MENTIONS ACUÑA'S GRAND SLAM IN GAME THREE OF THE NLDS AND IT WOULD BE VERY NICE TO SEE ANOTHER ONE TONIGHT. HOWEVER THINGS SHAKE OUT IT LOOKS LIKE I'M ROOTING FOR THE WINNER OF THE BRAVES-PHILLIES SERIES NOW SINCE MY OTHER ROOTING INTERESTS HAVEN'T BEEN DOING TOO WELL. YOU BET YOUR ASS I'LL ROOT FOR BRYCE HARPER, I'M VERY SERIOUS ABOUT NOT WANTING A TEXAS-ARIZONA WORLD SERIES. I HAVE FAITH RONALD WON'T LET THAT HAPPEN
