I've been Zapped

Zippy Zappy zapped me good.




He was interested in some Target Red Parallels, and so he contacted me and sent along this package in trade:



 This is my first Joe Mauer card in a foreign language! Zippy Zappy says that the back mentions the legend that Mauer never struck out in High School - close - he only struck out once

It's a pretty cool card regardless of any fanciful tales of derring-do.

Ooh, Shiny and Sign-y:


The best thing the Twins have going for them these days is their farm system, and Zippy hooked me up with the very best:



Buxton, Sano, Rosario, Berrios (who started the Futures Game in 2014), Mitch Garver and Oswaldo Arcia, who's been up with the Twins for awhile. These guys are all fantastic prospects, it has a lot of Twins fans excited for 2016.



There was a little taste of some vintage as well





I just got Zapped and it was pretty fantastic.

I've packed up and shipped out a return with those red parallels and maybe a little something extra?

Thanks Very Much!
