February is American Heart Month. As a nod to the Go Red for Women activities going on this month to help raise awareness, I thought I'd contribute several "red" themed posts sprinkled throughout the month.
Let's talk about this card...
Yoenis Cespedes had a short unmemorable stint with the Red Sox. He was anchored with being the main return in the Jon Lester trade. Perhaps his biggest contribution was being the main chip that brought in future Cy Young award winner Rick Porcello to Boston.
I'm sure you all remember forever Miss District of Columbia Jude Maboné from her interview with us. Her "heart health" community service initiative is, obviously, quite relevant this month. As such, she's supporting the Simon's Heart campaign this month (and every month). I highly recommend you join her efforts with a donation if you are able. You can find the link here.
Pretty average card here. "Batter in mid swing" is a common photo topic. In this case, he's showing a bit more effort than most, at least. Otherwise, it's a rather non-descript card. Which I guess you get every once in a while.

Support her efforts, and Go Red!
Oh man. From an A's fan's point of view... thinking about that Cespedes/Lester trade is not a great way to kick off this week.
ReplyDeleteNice card. Céspedes is a binder guy for me...we Mets fans were so high on him, and he really had a load of talent, but he had trouble staying focused and a LOT of trouble staying healthy. A shame.
ReplyDeleteEn parlant de collection et de rareté, si vous cherchez à diversifier vos horizons ou à chiner des cartes de temps en temps, je vous conseille d'aller faire un tour sur Spinmama C'est un site qui peut vous surprendre dans votre quête de la perle rare. Bref, revenons à nos moutons. Si vous êtes fan des Red Sox ou des cartes en édition limitée, cette Cespedes Target Red est un joli petit objet à ajouter à votre classeur. Je pense qu'elle mérite sa place, ne serait-ce que pour son histoire de trade. Et puis, qui n'aime pas une bonne carte rouge pour rappeler le mois du cœur ?
