Random Wax: 2023 Topps Baseball

2023 Topps:  It's been a fun World Series so far and we'll roll with some more baseball cardboard.   We'll kick it off with Mike Trout who again had to deal with injuries this season.  And Ohtani is probably going to move on.  And they didn't make the playoffs again.  A once in a lifetime talent and dude has just struggled for so much to stay on the field the last four seasons.  I'm a huge fan and like most really hope his body will allow him to play a full season again in 2024.
Salvador Perez is a favorite of mine as well.  The design on this set is pretty good.  One of the better ones of late from Topps.
Smith didn't have a good season but is on the Rangers post season roster and has gotten into one game in each of the ALCS and World Series.
Dancing all the way to the World Series.
Perez had a good ALCS but hasn't been as sharp in the World Series.
Fun photo.
Good pack of cards overall.  I like Stars of MLB inserts and it being Devers makes it that much better.
