Agree- it would be nice to see the lineup slug a little more, but they seem to be winning more via small-ball this year. Kwan would be a nice fit because he makes a lot of contact- would definitely...

PSA is really, really tough on grading cards from the 80s and 90s. You might want to start slowly and send in a few of your best cards first, to see what you’re dealing with.
