TCDB Monday: It's a Monster, Folks!

Contest Winnings from Night Owl: Volume II

Yesterday, I began going through a prize package courtesy of a Night Owl Cards contest that I won some time ago.  Today, it's time to look at the next pack out of the 2016 Gypsy Queen blaster that made up the bulk of my prize!

Pack 2:
37.  John Lackey

For whatever reason, the bright blue on this card looks quite nice to me.
46.  Jordan Zimmerman
140.  Andrew Miller
160.  Paul Goldschmidt

I drafted Goldy with my first pick in this year's fantasy baseball league that I'm in.  He's been solid, though mostly overshadowed at the 1B position by Ryan Zimmerman (who I grabbed from free agency).
263.  Max Kepler
Purple Mini:  1.  Giancarlo Stanton (#206/250)

Woah!  A numbered mini from a blaster!  The purple minis are 1:14 packs, so they aren't all that rare but still, this was a pleasant surprise (especially pulling a good player, even though I'm not sure there is a single Marlins baseball card collector out there in the entire world).


Another fun pack - so far Gypsy Queen is impressing me (though I'll never fully get over the fact that there are no stats whatsoever to be found in this product).
