You know, I forgot to redeem this card last year when I got it. So, thinking about how long it took last year from redemption to receiving last year's Red Hot Rookie card, I thought I'd be waiting until the end of the 2010 season to get my card. Anyway, I went ahead and redeemed this card in the middle of January. And after weeks of waiting, my 2009 Topps Red Hot Rookie Andrew McCutchen #3 card finally arrived. The card, contrary to what the scan looks like below, really does look cool. After initially thinking about trading it, I think I'll hold on to this one.
So in any event, redeeming one of these...
got me this:
Forgive the picture, the card is a refractor after all. Nice shade of red (which you can't tell by the scan), and even though it's of a Pirates' outfielder, supposedly, he's one to keep an eye out for in 2010. Here's hoping, especially since Reporting Day is in less than FIVE DAYS!!!

I love comments. Please leave comments!!! (Ego, hush). Just keep your words clean (I show my kids this stuff), and the comment will be accepted.
If you must leave a comment anonymously, that's fine too. Although I wish you wouldn't. I'd like to get to know the people who actually read this humble little blog.
Thank you very much.

He is a good player and had a decent run last year in the bigs.
ReplyDeleteThat's a cool photo, just wish it was a little bigger, Andrew is only halfway on the card! :)
This years should be cool too.
