Random Wax: 2021 Topps

 2021 Topps: Bo Bichette is having a down year at the plate but Toronto is still in the mix for a playoff birth currently sitting as the third wild card team in the American League.  Bichette is still only 24 and still one of the young stars that should mean the Blue Jays are competitive for years to come.  This 70 Years of Baseball insert is a favorite of mine.
Trea Turner is having another outstanding season. He'll be a free agent this offseason and should get paid!
World Series cards are always fun and this one showcases the Series MVP.   I'm sure many collectors have large piles of Kyle Lewis cards but it's not looking good as the 26 year-old who is not showing any signs of being the star everyone hoped.

Marte is having another good year for the Mets while Raisel Iglesias was traded to the Atlanta Braves and has been great for them so far.  I feel like I've pulled a ton of these Ronald and Vlad Jr. checklist cards but I'm more than happy to have a bunch of those.

  1. Miss hearing Buster's highlights on the radio. I was wondering if maybe Topps used that same photo on his 2021 Topps Chrome Platinum card, but they didn't.

    1. Posey really was such a good hitter and to to do it as a catcher just upped his cred. I think folks don't quite give him the credit he deserves.
