Matty! You'd expect nothing less than a great haul of vintage cards from Mark Hoyle. Here's the rest of that #supertrade!
Kepler and Plouffe are part of the 2016 Archives set and both are new to me.
Some 80s/90s Twins stars!
And Timberwolves! Ty Corbin was a 2nd Round journeyman in the league before the Wolves nabbed him in the expansion draft. He became one of the team's leading scorers early on in their history. Before Andrew Bogut, there was Luc Longley. Longley was the first Australian to play in the NBA and was the Starting Center for 3 NBA championships.
Thanks for the cards, Mark!
Collected baseball cards from 1986-1995, and again from 2014 to Present. A simple blog to discuss the hobby.

A #super Pop Up PWE
Mark Hoyle is very quick with the PWE! I will do my best to keep up with him. Here's the latest installment:
Donruss experimented with this Pop up / Stand Up insert for All-Stars and the results were pretty awesome. Panini should feel free to bring this back again.
Good Pitching was a hallmark of Twins baseball in the championship years, both in the rotation and in the bullpen.
Championships are won when all those little offseason and in-season moves click. Whether it was plucking a career back-up catcher from the scrap heap and plugging him into the starting role, developing a corner infielder from the 13th Round of the draft to be your righty platoon partner, Getting a speedy outfielder with pop via the Rule V draft, or backing up the Brinks truck to steal another team's ace, when it comes together, the results are magical.
The Package ends with a pair of big arms.
Thanks Mark!

A New Vintage Super Trade
Mark Hoyle, as we have come to know, is the bestower of great vintage of all shapes, sizes, and flavors.
But he also can surprise you from time to time with the new stuff. A PWE hit my mailbox this week with some 2016 vintage goodness.
In 1967, This card featured Killebrew and Bob Allison - I hope 500 Homers are in the cards for Sano as well, but I won't put all that on a guy entering his first full season in the big leagues.
John Hicks was a Mariner last year, so it makes sense to pair him with one on this card. He's a "veteran" rookie, and he'll probably spend most of 2016 with AAA Rochester, only coming up if John Ryan Murphy or Kurt Suzuki get hurt (or traded).
I like Manager cards. The action shots are the best, but this is ok too.
Good write-up too.
Your 2015 AL Triples leader, Eddie Rosario, and the Twins only lefty starter, Mr. Tommy Milone. He's, how you say? Crafty.
Stickers! Always fun to pick up Twins from the stickers set, one of these years I just might get a book from Target and build a set. Seems like a fun diversion.
Thanks Mark! As Always, a great bunch of cards!

It's Spring Training for #supertraders too
And yet, Mark Hoyle is already trading like there's a pennant race! Check out the Killer getting ready for his final season in Washington before the team moved to Minnesota.
A nice variety of Twins fan favorites and some great photography.
They bought it back and now it's a 1966/2015 vintage.
Hitting the spot between the current collection and the cards of my youth.
Proving again that not all 1992 junk was junk.
Kirby!
This oddball food issue was just a hair bigger than the standard card, but it still has a home!
Thanks for the super trade, Mark!
