McCutchen Mailday #87 and 88: A Pair of Low Number Parallels

Today's Cutch PC Additions bring us two lower numbered parallels.  The Orange Bowman's Best refractor /25 was snagged for only $8, while the Black Chrome Refractor /67 was bought for $30.

Clearly it's nothing like the 1/1 rookie Superfractor of Cutch I showed yesterday, but it was a pair of cards I needed to add for the Cutch PC.

I have really changed my focus on card collecting the past year and a half. Instead of buying up lots of parallels, autos, etc of guys like Jose Tabata and Matt Capps, I am strictly sticking to being a Supercollector of Charlie Morton and Andrew McCutchen in addition to being a base team set collector for Topps, Stadium Club, Ginter, and Heritage. I suppose I will continue to add the base cards of Donruss as long as they are continued to be produced.

McCutchen Mailday #53, 54, and 55: A trio of shiny Heritage Refractors

The latest quest for 100 new Cutch cards yielded me a 3 package mailday all featuring the same card, but different versions. I went aggressive trying to add as many non base variants of Cutch's Heritage card as possible when Heritage was first released.  The refractor and purple refractors were won off ebay and the black refractor was purchased from someone on Blowout Cards.

The black is very low numbered (only 66 copies)

Cutch is still struggling in this early season and I really hope that he can start to turn it around soon.

McCutchen Mailday Numbers 42, 43, and 44: A lot of Shine!!!!

Big mailday today as 3 new Andrew McCutchen cards came in the mail from eBay in my pursuit for 100.

These three beautiful low numbered parallels hailing from 2014 Topps Chrome, Prizm, and Finest cost me a grand total of $32.  That might seem pricy for only 3 pieces of cardboard that don't have any relics, signatures, or manufactured pins on them.  That's all true, but if you looked at these 3 cards and the way they refract light and shine on a page, you'd change your mind.

All 3 cards are numbered to 100 or less copies and are part of a bigger rainbow project I intend to complete of Cutch this year.

The lack of Spring Training at bats and now his knee problems are a sign of concern for the Bucs as they start the season 1-4. Every single game they lost in Cincinnati could have gone to them just as easily, but you can't make excuses for the loss column. 3 Games under .500 and 4 games out of 1st isn't worth panicking over in April. They've been there as recent as last year. Cutch's health, however, is a little worrisome. I thought he was Fearless as depicted in this card.
