Takashi Saito was the last card I needed for the 2008 set from Japan. I have the cards in the original wrappers. I have extras of some of the cards if anyone would like to trade. My list of needs from the Japanese sets are shown on the right side of the blog. I have not been able to find cards that have been taken from the wrappers.
Saito was the only player in the set that I knew nothing about. He played seven years in the majors (2006 - 2012) and was an all-star. He recorded 84 saves along with 21 wins.
He began pitching in Japan in 1992 and didn't stop until after the 2015 season when he was 45 years old.
I picked up the 2010 CC Sabathia for you. Will ship it your way when I get it.
ReplyDeleteVery cool. Congratulations on your set completion.
ReplyDeleteThanks to both of you.
ReplyDeleteNo worries, still sealed in its pack.
