2012 Topps Gold Rush - Daniel Hudson

I picked up my first card from the 2012 Topps Gold Rush set that was available from the pack redemption program they set up. It's of Daniel Hudson. Big surprise there, right? These cards are pretty cool. The gold foil embosses most of the card and looks even better in person than the scan.

I may have only gotten five new 08 Topps base cards signed in person this Spring Training but I did walk away with a stack of other 08 Topps stuff. One of the highlights is this Franklin Gutierrez card from the Cleveland Indians 14 card team set.

# 566 - Kevin Millwood - Gold Foil

Woo! Gold foil! One of the most boring parallels ever! That being said, I'm still glad to have a different 08 Topps card signed for our collection. Thanks, Kevin!

# 385 - Troy Tulowitzki

Hands down this is my favorite card I was able to get signed this Spring Training. I know there's still a few weeks left and I have plans to go to at least another game or two. This will still be my favorite card.

I had a pretty rough day at the Rockies camp but getting Troy Tulowitzki to sign a card for our set more than made up for the small quantity of autographs I went home with. This is the first time I had ever gotten him so it was pretty cool.

# 237 - Eric Wedge

After spending some time in Cleveland, Eric Wedge is now the manager for the Seattle Mariners. From what it sounds like the players really like him. Maybe he can turn things around in Seattle. They've had a rough few years.

# 353 - Brendan Ryan

I had never met Brendan Ryan before until this year. I must say he's a very nice guy. Every time I saw the Mariners he signed for everyone there. He also was very talkative, especially with the younger fans.

# 427 - Carlos Guillen

Carlos Guillen started off Spring Training with the Mariners until he decided to retire last week. Glad we were able to get this one done before he made that decision.

Carlos had a pretty nice career going until injuries slowed him down. He was a three-time all-star.
