So...I think this turned out to be a pretty great blaster! Two Bowman's Best pulls when a blaster would normally only yield one. But of course the best pull was the Matt Lipka auto! When I opened the pack I saw the blue border and figured it was just a parallel base card which is normally inserted 1:29 packs. But then I discovered it was an auto! Albeit a sticker auto but still 1:161 packs.
As a Braves fan I generally don't follow the prospects in their minor league system until they're on the cusp of making it to The Show. As so I was unfamiliar with Lipka and did some research. Turns out the Braves took him as the 35th overall pick in the 2010 draft as a SS out of McKinney HS in Texas. In 2012 he switched to CF and while playing with the Braves high Class A affiliate Lynchburg Hillcats he tore his right hamstring and was done for the year. This season he has come back from his injury to hit well for Lynchburg. He is currently hitting .284, 4 HR, 30 RBI and 17 steals in 24 tries. Looking at his stats his batting average has steadily risen each season since being promoted from Rookie League to Low A. Doesn't appear to be much of a power hitter but he sure does have wheels!
If he stays healthy maybe we'll get to see him in Atlanta in a couple years and this card might be worth something!
On another note, Series 2 streets tomorrow!!! I'm hoping to pick up a hanger box or maybe even a blaster in the next couple days and I will report here on my findings.
Happy collecting!
PS: All cards listed above are available for trade other than the auto.
Shelby Miller!!! I'd be very interested in that one and a couple others. Email me at cardscrush99@yahoo.com and maybe we can work out a deal. Thanks!
