Well Jobu didn't bless me with a windfall but not horrible for free packs from throwing a team in some tournaments. Gold live cards Yastrzemski, Britton and Bogarts. Also picked up a silver Scott Van Slyke and Gary Thomasson a gold Mike Davis.
Van Slyke doesn't fit on my main roster and I have a heavy head start on a bronze or lower tournament team I have put him up for auction since his 7 day ave in the AH is a little north of 1,000.
Thomasson is in the same boat as Van Slyke-I took a longer look at him as he is qualified for all three OF positions and 1B so for now I am holding on to him. I may regret it because he is selling for over 1,800 ave and isn't nearly worth it.
Mike Davis is also in the AH. He isn't much better than the platoon I currently have in RF of Felix Jose and Bill Voss (both from starter packs).
If those cards all sell at their seven day average I should clear a shade over 5,000-If I change my mind and add Thomasson maybe 6,500.
Coney Island is 72-59 and the lineup for next week is pretty much set. If I find a utility infielder (2B/SS) that can flash a little leather I may jump on it.
Once play gets underway next week I am going to start slowly working on my second team. It will be a theme-either all 70's (could mean the return of the Boogie Knights?) or an all NY team including the Dodgers and Giants (only players who played in Brooklyn or NY-No LA or SF). Leaning towards the latter.
