In another recent giveaway, The Angels In Order put some Jim Abbotts up for people to claim. Abbott was a big free agent signing for the Yankees after the 1992 season and was largely a disappointment, but had one big highlight with his September 4, 1993 no-hitter. He had a lot of great cards. I picked a couple of SP card, one with the Yankees, and the other a rare pitcher-hitting card. 1996 SP sure is an underrated set. Finally, I picked a 1990 Topps rookies card, it's a junk wax set I somehow still haven't completely finished.
I remember those Topps Rookies being such a big deal when I was a kid. It seems like their popularity has dropped off quite a bit over the years.
