Those holding those Red Hot Rookie Redemption cards better get them logged in to Topps quickly as it has just been announced that card #17 is of Evan Longoria of the Tampa Bay Rays.
Longoria, the Rays All-Star third baseman, made his Major League Debut on April 12 against the Orioles, and has since helped lead the Rays to their first ever postseason appearance with a .278 batting average, 25 home runs, and 82 runs batted in (as of September 22, 2008). He is definitely a candidate for AL Rookie of the year.
The big deal about this card is that it is autographed. For fans of the Rays and Longoria, you will certainly want to add this cards to your collections. So for those of you with Redemption card # 17, START REDEEMING!!!

Are they going to get through these redemptions before the 2009 season starts? It seems like I bought that dang box of Series 2 twenty years ago.
