Gint-a-Cuffs: Packs 2 and 3

The first pack (plus box topper) have given me an eleven point* start to the box.  Let's see if we can't up that average at least a bit with the next two packs.

*unless that changes, question pending.

Pack 2:
100.  Albert Pujols (Hard to believe he's not a favorite player!)
26.  Edwin Jackson
6.  Micky Ward
244.  Chone Figgins
203.  Aaron Hill
348.  Russell Martin  (+2 points for the short print, but -1 because it's a Yankee.  Total +1)

Hometown Heroes:
HH3.  Brian Wilson (+1 point despite the hideous beard)

Regular mini:
339.  Miguel Tejada (Short print, +3 points)

Pack total:  +5 points  (meh)
Box total:  16 points*  
*pending

Pack 3:

95.  Dan Uggla
78.  Luke Scott
51.  Tim Collins
97.  Zach Britton
41.  Carlos Santana
166.  Geovany Soto

Hometown Heroes:
HH23.  Dustin Pedroia  (+1 insert)

Ad Back mini:
26.  Edwin Jackson (+2 ad back)

Pack total:  +3 points

Box total* so far :  19 points
*pending scoring ruling. 

Thoughts so far:

It completely sucks to get a Yankee card normally, it's even worse when you pull a Yankee during Gint-a-Cuffs.  You have to figure every box will contain 24 points worth of short prints - the winning box will have more of the favorite team and less Yankees...with this many participants, each point could end up being the difference between winning and losing.
