Random Topps Team Set of the Week: 2007 Topps Minnesota Twins

Thanks to the Topps Card Randomizer, introducing the Random Topps Team Set of the Week:


The checklist consists of the following players:
The cards in order from the set (the checklist at the end was cut from the back of the package. What, you don't do that?):



Key differences between the team set and 2011 Topps eponymous set:
  • Johan Santana's card in the team set is unique because in the base set, he's pictured horizontally:

  • Somebody forgot that Francisco Liriano made Topps' All-Star Rookie Team the year before because the rookie cup that is in his 2007 base card is missing:

So of the 14 players included in this set, only one (Santana) had an obvious picture variance, and the other was due to a missing trophy.

Next week's featured set will be the 2009 Cleveland Indians.  Hope you'll be here when we compare the cards from the retail set to their counterparts found in Topps and Topps Update and Highlights.

Sincerely,

JayBee Anama
