Big thanks to Trey Jones (thj0011) for this Astros card


So since they have traded all my Astros away I needed to find someone new to collect.  I went to a few games and saw J.D. Martinez play.  It just seemed like every ball he hit was just crushed so that's who I picked.  I put a post on Beckett.com asking for trades for his cards and a fellow member (thj0011) came through for me and didn't even want anything in return.  Well, I found out he's a fellow Astros fan and belongs to my Facebook group page Baseball Cards Rule.  Couldn't be more perfect.  Received card and it is greatly appreciated.  And don't think your not going to recieve a package back from me.  That's just how I roll.  2010 Bowman Platinum Prospects #PP23 J.D. Martinez.  If anyone else has some of his cards you want to trade away please contact me at info@baseballcardsrule.com.  Big thanks again to Trey Jones.

BGS/BVG Mailday: Maris, Yastrzemski, Griffey, Sandberg, Lincecum, Thomas

Just got these back from Beckett grading today. I'm pretty happy with the grades. I still want to upgrade the Griffey though to a 9.  Again if you haven't done a submission through www.FreedomCardBoard.com you are missing out.  Those guy are the best.
