Night Owl Cards

  I had to grab the 2023 Topps Dodgers team set for a reason only team collectors can explain, and probably do it sheepishly. The Topps team sets aren't as fun as they were 10 years ago or even five. You always knew you were going to get "repeat" cards -- the front and back are the same except for the card number -- but there was enough variety to make it interesting. Either there were a few new players or a picture or two was different. There's been less and less of that and now we team collectors are basically paying for a package of dupes. But I'll show it off anyway. These are the players who appeared in Series 1, all identical pictures except the Topps logo isn't foil.   The only player from Series 1 that doesn't appear in the team set is Cody Bellinger, now a Cub.   These are the players who are on the checklist for Series 2. Part of the fun of the team set is at least getting to see what the Series 2 cards will look like. I kind of ordered this late...
