Dodger Bobble and The Blazing 'Graphs

Alrighy, I'm back from a weekend away. Caught my first ever Reds game at PNC Park in Pittsburgh (a slick 2-0 win courtesy of Mike Leake).

My first post back is dedicated to Josh over at Dodger Bobble. Go check out his site for some trade bait and general Dodger collecting goodness. Let's check out my end of the haul...

A sweet 2012 Topps Golden Moments Gold Sparkle Johnny Cueto Jersey Card serial numbered 88/99. I have the regular issue Cueto, so this is a nice companion. Next up...

A few excellent non-base cards. 2011 Topps Lineage Diamond Anniversary Aroldis Chapman, 2011 Topps Lineage 1975 Mini Aroldis Chapman, and 2010 Topps 206 Short Print Joey Votto. Two of my favorite players for reasons that barely require explanation. That Votto is sweet, calling back the design on a select few 1909 t206 cards. Closing it out...
Three great autos from the Reds A-Advanced affiliate Bakersfield Blaze: Theo Bowe, Daniel Renken, and Devin Lohman, who've all been moved up to AA for the current season. The cards are a nice homage to 1955 Bowman, but done much nicer.

Pretty fantastic pickups from Dodger Bobble. Thanks, buddy. It's good to be back. Go Reds.
