Topps Living Set - Page 51

That Hoskins looks bad. The Happ and Markakis seems to the the norm for the corners on some of the cards. Hoping they can fix that so it isn't an issue in future weeks.

vanpatten · 04-11-2018, 07:56 AM

Who's hyped for new card Wednesday? Like Christmas every week lol. Anyways my guesses are...

Justin Verlander (Astros)
Adam Jones
Griffey Jr. (Reds) because why not lol

okumeister · 04-11-2018, 08:01 AM

The Jean Segura card is so beautiful that I bought 5 of it even though I'm not a fan of him or anything.

poppincurbs · 04-11-2018, 08:02 AM

I'm stoked for new releases and once again debating all morning about whether I should buy more... this week Jeter lol.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say we get Ichiro or Altuve this week.

okumeister · 04-11-2018, 08:08 AM

Probably already mentioned here (I didn't read most of the earlier posts), but I just noticed that the red name plates are used for AL players and black name plates are used for NL players.
I've seen white corners on both of them, but it is going to be extra tough for NL players with the black borders.

cj828282 · 04-11-2018, 08:53 AM

I am predicting McCutchen and maybe a Marlins or Rays player.

okumeister · 04-11-2018, 09:07 AM

Is there any standard as to how Topps chooses the players for that week's Topps Living offerings?

It seems as though they want to have 1 solid superstar either current or retired... or hot rookie and then 2(as we would say in cards..."commons"). At least one might think that based on what we have seen each week.

-Amed Rosario RC
-Bryce Harper
-Yadier Molina

They already did Panik - I don’t think they’ll be back to giants this soon.

tribefan26 · 04-11-2018, 10:08 AM

I think Kershaw, Yadi & Kipnis

ThoseBackPages · 04-11-2018, 10:19 AM

hoping for Jackie

Agreed, Jackie Robinson Day is this Sunday so it only makes sense to do it now.

That is my thoughts as well...if it isn't I will be surprised.

yrocks2001 · 04-11-2018, 10:28 AM

My guesses:

Clayton Kershaw (time for a pitcher aside from Ohtani)
Dallas Keuchel (artist seems to love drawing facial hair)
Khris Davis

Yeah, noticed that too after I posted. I will go with Gallo instead of McCutchen.

NJGREGG · 04-11-2018, 11:09 AM

Max Scherzer has been confirmed for this week.

Eye see what you did there!

kyle1707 · 04-11-2018, 12:11 PM

They will be printing 100's of thousands of these cards

There is no way there will not be chipping on the black borders..

Just wait for 2020 Topps Heritage...

People are going to flip out....
