2014 Spirit Base: 351-360

#351 - Cliff Lee
Cliff better put a hat on. It's always sunny there.

#352 - Neil Walker
Walker's having the finest season of his career so far.

#353 - Kolten Wong
Looks like he's finally up to the majors for good.

#354 - Tyson Ross
Probably the biggest bright spot for the Padres this year.

#355 - Brandon Belt
What a strange season for Belt. He started off like gangbusters, then naturally cooled off, then broke his thumb in May. After he finally returned in July, he dealt with a stiff back for a few weeks before getting hit during batting practice. Since then he's been out with a concussion. Then just a couple of days ago he was finally activated, though he's yet to see any playing time. I had such high hopes for his 2014 season after that hot start. Now I just hope he's able to stay healthy and contribute in some way.

#356 - Hisashi Iwakuma
Though not quite as revelatory as last year, Iwakuma's been good again this season. Lo and behold, the Mariners have a chance to make the playoffs.

#357 - David DeJesus
I've been looking for a good bunt image to throw in here but I think DeJesus is the first I've actually used.

#358 - Tanner Scheppers
Probably the unlikeliest of Opening Day starters. And after spending the post-April season mostly on the DL, the Rangers have already announced he'll be a bullpen guy in 2015.

#359 - Colby Rasmus
I have a hard time finding good defensive shots of outfielders that show them actually catching the ball. I had no choice but to use this one of Rasmus here.

#360 - Rafael Soriano
This was probably the least obnoxious clap photo he has out there.

Spirit Deluxe Autos

Following the Members Only post, I looked back and tallied up all the cards I've done so far and realized I've really loaded up the Spirit flagship and neglected Clubhouse and Deluxe. That brings us to the first inserts from the Deluxe set, Deluxe Autos.

The design on these is very simple but goes along with the Deluxe base. We've got the team-color knit fading into the player photograph. The horizontal orientation lends itself to a bigger autograph, with the team logo below. The player name is in a nice silver foil-stamped serif font above with position/team below the signature, which would be on-card and not stickers.

On the back is more of the team-color swatch along with a more intimate player photo. These would be considered the 'base' autos for the set with future inserts being dual autos or auto/relic combos. The 30 cards in the set would be made up of one player from each team.
