O yeah! A Tigery trade package from Ryan H.

Yeah, sorry for the title--it's a play on his blog name that everybody makes, but I got nothin'.

So now that he's done with his most recent group break, Ryan of "O" No!!! Another Orioles Blog and I came up with another great trade.  Oddly enough, we agreed to get another trade going because I have an Orioles card he didn't manage to pull from that latest break.

Being the great trader he is, I've already received my end of the deal, and I still have to get his sent out this weekend. (which I promise to do!)  Here's what I ended up getting:

A solid group of Tigers.  Most of these (excluding the Guillen and Cobb) hail from his group break.  My favorite is right down the middle--an awesome 1994 Finest Alan Trammell (with David Wells and Tony Phillips flanking him).  I'm also excited to have another Dean Palmer, especially one in a Tigers uni.

O hai, random Ripken insert smack dab in the middle of a bunch of Tigers!  Ryan is as aware as anyone that I do like collecting Cal when I can, so this is perfect.  And if I haven't already said it before, I really prefer cards depicting him fielding because he always looked awesome making a play.  (plus he had a thousand different weird batting stances)  So this'll slide right into that PC and is much appreciated.

Here's a mix of some modern and recent-but-classic Tigers.  The Dirks and Magglio are both numbered, which I love, that's another Granderson I didn't have, and another Sweet Lou while we're at it!

And then there's the card I wanted most since he offered it to me:

a Rick Porcello 2012 Topps Golden Moments jersey.  The card celebrates a nice game he had against Pittsburgh last year in which he pitched eight innings of one-run ball for a Tigers team that was struggling to score.  It's a solid design with a real nice gray jersey swatch, and I'm very happy to add another hit to my Porcello collection.  He's certainly a player of whom I'm happy to get anything, so I'm obviously pumped about a nice relic like this.

Big thanks again for the trade, Ryan, and I'm hoping what I dug up for you will appear to be a fair return!  Everyone else should head on over to Ryan's blog to check out his most recent break and some Orioles-inspired card fun.
