Random Topps Team Set of the Week: 2007 Topps Toronto Blue Jays

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

• Team: 2007 Toronto Blue Jays
• Record: 83-79, third place, AL East Division.
• Manager: John Gibbons
• Card on the Top: Roy Halladay

The checklist consists of the following players:

• TOR1 Roy Halladay
• TOR2 Frank Thomas
• TOR3 Gregg Zaun
• TOR4 Lyle Overbay
• TOR5 Royce Clayton
• TOR6 A.J. Burnett
• TOR7 Adam Lind
• TOR8 Vernon Wells
• TOR9 Reed Johnson
• TOR10 Troy Glaus
• TOR11 Aaron Hill
• TOR12 Alex Rios
• TOR13 Gustavo Chacin
• TOR14 B.J. Ryan

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?):

There are no key differences between the team set and 2007 Topps eponymous set. Topps used the same pictures from the base set for the retail ones. There isn't even a difference in picture cropping among the fourteen. It's like you can take the fourteen cards from the base set, pack them into the retail set, and unless somebody looked at the back of the cards, nobody would know the difference.

Oh well.

Next week's featured set will be the 2008 Chicago White Sox. Hope you'll be here when we compare the cards from the retail set to their counterparts found in Topps and Topps Updates and Highlights sets. And let's hope there are some differences. This was just sad...sorry Blue Jays fans.

Sincerely,
