Senators / Twins Collection
Johan Santana is in the house!!!
After about a month of actively working on it, I finally finished the Senators / Twins Collections to get SE SP Johan Santana, my 3rd historical perfect. Now all three of my teams have one!
Here's the deets:
17904 : Senators/Twins: Modern Days
23939 : Senators/Twins: Moving To Minnesota
18361 : Senators/Twins: The Glory Years
14351 : Senators/Twins: The Senators Early Years
03701 : Senators/Twins: The Senators Postwar Years
Out of the 56 cards needed, I had pulled 9, the highest being Cecil Travis (85).
But I still spent 78256 total. Considering Johan Santana's AVG7 is at 75K, maybe the collection is a negative value these days? The only other players in the collection I see myself using are CL Joe Nathan (96) and, for now, Joe Cronin for the defense. He's has a 2.3 WAR this season. I'm also trying out Goose Goslin (another reward card ) for a spell but he's not doing too well.
The Diamond Pack that came along with it yielded live Carlos Correa and Gold Jeff Burroughs.
Despite the cost, lots of fun working on this collection. And Santana is 2-0 in his first two starts as make a run for the 2nd Wild Card spot. We started the month 4 games out with only a 6.7% chance of making the playoffs and now we're 1.5 out with a 20% chance.
