Came across a few rookie short prints in the main stack (they have 4 circles in the top right corner). Those are now in the card saver sleeves as well.

Praying one was a Huff to redeem the Rangers selection.
Unfortunately not. SPs were Luis Garcia, Joey Bart, Jazz Chisholm, Christian Pache, Casey Mize, and Jo Adell. Plus, the Dylan Carson auto is on a SP card.

Former world series champ and current nutjob Aubrey huff?
Maybe the 2021 set will have a "Nutjobs" subset in place of "Masters"

Cards just arrived! I definitely had a lot of luck in this break with the two autos / four total hits. Stoked for the next one!

PE thanks again for putting it all together.

Maybe someone who knows these cards better than me can say if I got a decent hit here, but it looks like one of these is a Kintsukuroi Red/Gold. I think one sold on eBay for $300, does that seem right?42173

I’d like to move the Dalbec auto into something firmer to display. Does anyone know what size I need? Do I use a top loader or a snap or screw? I started looking and was overwhelmed with the choices.

I moved the Ke'Bryan Hayes auto into a BCW Magnetic Card Holder, size 35 Pt. These are slightly thicker than your average card but it didn't seem like I needed to move up to a 55 Pt. size.

I'm also relatively new to the nicer cases so someone may have a better idea. From looking online people seem to prefer the magnet style to the screw style, and that it's also preferred for nicer cards over a top loader. For less exciting but still nice cards a penny sleeve and then top loader (which is how PE ships the better cards) is fine.

Edit to note that just like the cards themselves, some of these protective materials are hard to find and way more expensive than they used to be even just a few years ago.

Cards received. Thanks for the bonus packs for those of us who missed on hits! I got a Trevor Lawrence RC in the score pack.
