MLB Showdown Cards

Another big week for our #shotsfriday crew. 4 Pros go deep and our highest ranked non-pro also homered. @5B_nelson homered again for the second week in a row. His pick of Josh Hamilton to keep him on the hot streak. He was joined by @Tomwyliehart with a Josh Hamilton long ball. @Tomwyliehart, the creator, is 3 for 3 on #shotsfriday with different players... so the guy knows a thing or two about baseball. Dr Juice @Markrom3 got his second homer from Mike Trout to keep him on the board. That is Dr Juices third homer on the year and Trout's second. The @MLBConnoisseur found his third long ball with the Home Run Derby Champ Prince Fielder. That is Fielder's first of the year. Twitter-board up-date is @quicksand3 with 4 in the lead but he has 3 pros on his tail with 3 each, @tomwyliehart, @markrom3 and @MLBConnoisseur. Granderson is still in the lead with 3 on the player-board. Remember to send in your picks for who will homer to our twitter #Shotsfriday before the start of the game for the player you would like to use.

Now on to something we have never done on here before and we may do about twice a year for players trying to get older cards or players looking to sell their older cards. This is our "flea market" post where sellers will put up their cards and E-mails with prices for players to buy. I do not facilitate any of the sales and terms and agreements need to be reached between the buyer and the seller not through this blog. We only have 1 seller for this flea market, Hopefully we can get more for the next one but here is his list and E-mail he wishes to do business through
