My
pickup pile is starting to stack up high and since I have posted a couple of
non-sports related posts I am going with some recent Taijuan Walker pickups for
my Seattle Mariners collection.
First
up is his 2014 Gypsy Queen rookie card. Walker has been in the Mariners system
since he was drafted in 2010. He has appeared in 88 minor league games going
30-30 while pitching 9 games for the Mariners where he has gone 2-2. He is
currently the Mariners #1 prospect and just got called up, he is scheduled for
2 more starts this year (Friday against the Astros and next Wednesday against the Blue Jays).
I was fortunate enough to pick up his 2013 Leaf Trinity Pure Glass autograph # 6/60 for an insane
price, $6.02 shipped. This card is currently selling for $25-30 plus shipping
so mine was almost a steal. I have been watching the Pure Glass cards since
their release because they are quite unique. The only downside is they are a
fingerprint magnet, not that I am complaining.
