Yeah, it's the guys like Baines and Lee Smith that surprise you and you may have to scramble. The tricky thing with modern guys is there always seems to be another rookie card (or parallel, or minor league card) to grab, so even when I think I'm covered, I end up finding something else to buy.

And I can't get excited about managers either, especially this group. And Execs and Umpires in the Hall of Fame? Meh.

The only time I can get excited about a manager getting in is if they have a cool playing days card. I'm not a LaSorda fan but it's cool he's got that 54 Topps card. And Sparky with his 59 Topps. I like that they were the fringest of major league players but snuck onto cards in popular sets anyway. The Stengel T210 is a huge card but he's also got cool M101s and other misc playing era cards.

That’s what I’m talking about. Those are cool forever. I get much less excited about a “manager” rookie in like 87 Topps or something.
