The other day I ventured into an LCS looking for a box of the el-cheapo Topps Bunt physical cards. They didn't have any, due to the proprietors objection to digital cards. Completely understandable, so I grabbed a pack of 2015 Panini Prizm while I was there, and also checked to see if he had any National Baseball Card Day packs left. He did, so he hooked me up with one.

I needed these, the following are tradebait.

As for the Prizm pack, there were also two cards that I needed:

| The Salad and the Snake |
Apparently it was Jake Arrieta Day.
Don't need the following, so also tradebait:

Also in the Prizm pack were not one, but TWO numbered parallels! BOTH ARE UP FOR TRADE!
Starting off is the ace Cardinals pitcher, Adam Wainwright. Red Power Prizm 97/125. The fact that it is a red parallel makes for a great looking, non-clashing, Card card.
Lastly, you MIGHT have heard of this guy.
Former Cardinals Pitcher.
Former Braves Pitcher.
Former Diamondbacks Pitcher.
Current Ace Pitcher.
Well, Aces Pitcher. The Reno Aces, the AAA affiliate of the D-Backs, as he looks to return to form.
But that doesn't matter, as here we have a Black Finite Prizm 1/1 of Shelby Miller from his glory days with Atlanta.
It's a great looking card, but they still can't figure out how to make a Braves uniform look decent. The Waino looks pretty good, except for the hat, of course, but a Redbird fan would probably be a little more finicky than me.
Pretty good day at the LCS. As stated above, everything but the Arrietas, Szczur and Harper are for trade!
