I probably can't have have an unbiased opinion on Sanchez, but I know he had about 10 Topps Now cards. You could have gone with a guy like Trout or Machade quite easily, but I'd assume they just went with their most popular players from year 1 of the program.

Maybe they went with the four most common subjects of NOW cards? <br /><br />I do think there should have been a few more Vin Scully cards produced this year - if there were any at all. There are "Voices of the Game" cards in other sports, but they're not Topps products. Maybe they don't have a license to produce announcer cards?<br /><br />Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10268829182522679026noreply@blogger.com
