Houdini's Fantasy Baseball Break Club (#1 & #2) - May Break

[jpitten]

Ugh, I can't win. This was the worst possible break to have #2 and I want the freakin Harper ball

[alsjunk2002]

Pick #2 Group 2 available for trade, looking to move down for multiple picks.

How in the hell do you know you have this pick?

I had a premonition. Or I had the last pick last month, whichever works.

Nice! Let me see where I finish, probably in the bottom half of the draft. Might be interested in a deal.

[imnotded]

What is the plan for June? Teir One?

[houdini]

Hey guys, setting up the random for spots 3-14. Then we can start the draft tomorrow.

Sold both cases for $190 off eBay. So after paypal fees and shipping...

For June I figure Tier One releases on the 20th. To be honest, last year's Tier One might be a better deal at only $790.00.

LMK your thoughts. I will take silence as agreement.

Personally I vote in this order


1. Topps series 2 Jumbo 6 box case - $555. Prob best value and fun break (Bryce has SP's and autos in this)
2012 Topps Series 2 Baseball Jumbo HTA 6 Box Case - $554.95 : Blowout Cards - Sports Cards and Trading Cards Wholesale Online Store


2. Topps Pro Debut 12 box case - $710 (Potential for some nice prospect autos.)
2012 Topps Pro Debut Baseball Hobby 12 Box Case - $709.95 : Blowout Cards - Sports Cards and Trading Cards Wholesale Online Store

3. Topps Tier 1 - $524 (Bryce in here also but personally thought last years product was a fail and horrible value.)
2012 Topps Tier One Baseball Hobby 6 Box Case - $523.95 : Blowout Cards - Sports Cards and Trading Cards Wholesale Online Store

Or we could do 2 of these products and no baseballs to keep costs about even to last month. LMK what you guys think.

[TheHeel]

I would go with 2012 Tier One...

Other choices I would like to see... (both are on sale with a limited amount of cases left)

2012 Sportkings Series E 16 Box Case - $1,429.99 : Blowout Cards - Sports Cards and Trading Cards Wholesale Online Store

2012 Bowman Baseball Jumbo (HTA) 8 Box Case - $1,369.00 : Blowout Cards - Sports Cards and Trading Cards Wholesale Online Store

[TheHeel]

I love the baseballs but I would like to throw this out there as well....

Really, I would like to see 2012 Topps Series 2 and 2012 Tier one. I think both of those products will be crazy awesome this year.

[houdini]

There is no way I am busting Topps Series 2.

I am happy to switch up the baseballs though. That is a nice fit since we will have 5 weeks in June.

So, 2012 Tier One and Historic autographs?

Any major dissent?

[houdini]

Ok, andrew jones and bigjheat (jabrown1) won the month of may. Congrats guys.

Thanks Houdini...I am definitely excited. Can I go ahead with my pick, or do I need to wait till tomorrow?

I'd also be down for some Sportkings...it's a little more "top heavy" with the top 1-2 spots getting much, much better hits, but with a 16-box case, everyone'll at least get a box hit and the last two picks would get two (if they choose, some of the base and mini's sell very well, too). Only 80 cards total as well and no other supplies needed, so it'd hypothetically be a fairly quick break/draft/ship

[houdini]

It would put us way over budget though.

Feel free to pick way.

Guys,

The best record for the month wins. Points are a tie breaker.

You can verify my math by looking at weeks 5-8.

You can verify the rules by seeing the threads.

April has no bearing on May. The OVERALL winner uses all months, but that will not be until the end.

[alsjunk2002]

Pick 2 Group 2 really want to trade down, give me some offers.

[Swivelhip]

If we go Historic Autographs I think we should go with the Champions Edition - East/midwest. I think it comes out June 13th. 2012 Historic Autographs Champions East/Midwest Ed. 12 Box Case - $899.95 : Blowout Cards - Sports Cards and Trading Cards Wholesale Online Store
