I suddenly realized I didn't have a single Baines or Smith card...
...so, just as I did went they let Mazeroski in, I went out and bought a 'representational group' of 15 cards of Baines & 10 of Smith... heck, I had to add some Josh Donaldson cards anyway since he signed with the Braves. I'll be darned if I'm going to try to get all the 1980s cards of each of them, though...that's ridiculous. I hate seeing these two being called 'Chicago Legends' when Minnie Minoso is still on the outside! Some day all those cards are going to be worth something....NOT! It's just an addiction, plain and simple. Earlier this year, I bulked up on players I think are likely future candidates...in a vain effort to not be so surprised. I guess I need to pick up some Bobby Grich cards, huh?

Agree, and I'd add Billy Pierce as well.

Minnie was used to being screwed. From his first season in the bigs when he got screwed out of the ROY award...
