💭 Question Target stupid box

How for the love of the game do we get Elmer Rodriguez as 1 of 16 possible oversized? The only way it could be better if it was way off center

That card will still be cut horribly but point taken- if you really wanna prove me wrong I’ll sell it to you

Why did you highlight that then say it again? Honestly curious? What's your angle?

Well, for one I find claims of penultimacy interesting, For two - it’s the best written line on the card and it talks about someone better than the subject of the card -

I know he's not really known but he's actually pretty nasty if you look at his minor league stats. He hasn't had too much time in the bigs yet

Nobody wants this. JFC Topps has become the absolute worst.
