What's Buzz-worthy: Since cheap options aren't seemingly as en vogue lately for MLB retail, I went to the well for three more of these for some cheap thrills posts and, well, this one is arguably the best of them with a couple more parallels than the normal high here and about four more than the low norm. A couple good names are in there in decent spots but this one, but, other than maybe some odds, this isn't really that strong of a box beyond that Soto. The rookie crop was rough as was the base unless cameos of top stars on checklists are your thing. ... As noted before, the foilboard effect is back on every single card but instead of going dark on the borders it's a mash-up of 1982, 1984 and 2019 with a light modern look this time around. Does it work? Yes. ... The Stars Of MLB cards once again carrying more retail weight -- so it definitely still needs more variety with a normal pack. ... If you like what you see, rip into jumbo for your best results with a guaranteed autograph and Relic and maybe more.
