We have opened up eight packs so far without a hit. Pack #9 changes that. Will it be a monster point scorer? Honestly, as of the time I am writing this post I don't know since the rules aren't yet posted. That said, if I'm being honest my best guess is "no, not a monster point scorer."
Points so far: 50 (with the usual box topper disclaimer)
Pack 9:
26. Steven Souza Jr.
348. Aaron Sanchez
170. Chris Davis
52. Jake Marisnick
Starting Point: SP-60. CC Sabathia (+2 since he is an Indian here and not a stupid Yankee)
A World Beneath Our Feet: BUG-9. Deer Tick (+2 for the critter)
Full-Size Relic: FSRA-YC. Yoenis Cespedes (+6 points for being a boring full-sized relic)
A relic plus two inserts makes for a pretty good pack. The Deer Tick is particularly vile - I live in the eastern US so we have to worry about ticks quite a bit (especially with my dog).
Pack total: 10 points
Points so far: 60 points
While the 10 points for this pack is certainly nice, I think I need to get quite a few more points out of my "hit" packs if I have any hope of competing in the competition. In other news though, I am working on all the various mini sets from this year's edition of Ginter - so if you have any for trade, check out my want list and make an offer!
