Throwback Thursday: Cutch Brings Back Memories of a Cobra and Pops

Andrew McCutchen won the NL MVP award in 2013 when he lead the Pirates to the post season for the first time in 20 years. The last player to do that was Barry Bonds.

The Pirates teams of the late 70s were constantly battling the Big Red Machine as a team of dominance.  Those Pirates teams had MVP caliber players Dave Parker and Willie Stargell.

This year's National Treasure release recognizes all the things I mentioned above.

Booklet cards like this are the reason I enjoy National Treasures.

    That's a big chunk of bat! Pretty cool card though. I don't think I've ever actually seen a booklet in person.

    I was just thinking about making a post about all the Cutch books I have.
