Topps Lineage Group Break: Box 2 - Boxloader and the First Two Packs

It's time to open the final box of the break - the second box of Topps Lineage.  First up, the boxloader:

TG8.  Ichiro - Mariners

Not a bad boxloader!  Now, let's get to the first two packs!

Box 2 - Pack 1:

11.  Ryan Zimmerman - Nationals
17.  Billy Butler - Royals

Wow, we went all of box 1 without a single Royal...and yet, the first pack of box 2 provides a Royal.  Group breaks are a fickle b**** sometimes!
73.  Kosuke Fukudome - Cubs
88. David Price - Rays
158.  Monte Irvin - Giants
175.  CC Sabathia - Yankees
190.  Bert Blyleven - Twins
TCS27.  Cloth Stickers:  Tris Speaker - Red Sox

Box 2 - Pack 2:

55.  Nolan Ryan - Rangers
72.  Rickie Weeks - Brewers
89.  Eddie Murray - Orioles
157.  Wandy Rodriguez - Astros
165.  Jose Reyes - Mets
188.  Daniel Hudson - Diamondbacks

198.  Andruw Jones - Braves
T3D19.  Topps 3D:  Hanley Ramirez - Marlins
 At this point, there are only seven teams that don't have at least one parallel, insert, relic, auto, or boxloader.  Considering that there are 30 teams and we've barely dipped into the second box, I'd say that's a nice distribution.  I know that Lineage has taken a bit of flack across the blogs (and, admittedly, the backs of the cards need some work), but I think I like the set quite a bit.  I can't wait to open my own boxes...but I promised myself I wouldn't do that until all the group break cards are packaged up and in the mail!
