2018 Clubhouse: Tampa Bay Rays

131. Chris Archer 

132. Matt Duffy

133. Kevin Kiermaier

134. Wilson Ramos

135. Blake Snell

Archer and Ramos are gone, leaving us room for, uh, maybe Joey Wendle? I guess Tommy Pham needs a spot, too. The Rays won 90 games...

Snell getting one of the auto spots was a blessing with the season he had. Ramos was tagged for the other.

Miss you, Duffman :/

DT3. Jose Altuve - Dream Team

And here’s the final pack of our 2017 Pennant box. Seems pretty fitting for the final card of 2017 to be Jose Altuve considering it was his year. 

I’m trying to look at the designs objectively but it’s really hard for me not to be sick of seeing them after all this time. I know I was definitely more excited about the base design way back when than I am now. The lack of a team logo really sticks out to me. But overall I think it was successful enough calling back to the era.

I don’t know what 2018 has in store for me as far as fake card designing goes. I’ve actually put together a few cards for the Spirit base set but I’m not sure if I have the energy to do a full box break like I did this year. I’m sure I won’t just abandon everything, but I can’t really foresee what the future holds. Whatever it may be, I hope you stay interested.
