I love catchers in their gear, and this is one of the best.

William Contreras gets to rest at the all star break this year. I think his wounded finger will benefit. He is an iron man for powering through this year. It’s a down year for him statistically, but his toughness has been on display. 2025 Topps finally featured this guy in a lot of insert and autograph cards and I’m trying to grab all of my favorites. I’ll update this after I get more in. I wish they had made the sun holiday parallel the /25 instead of the umbrellas. I really like it and it was the first card I bought of this group.

One of the best catchers in MLB history, and for sure one of the more memorable HRs in the annals of baseball. I have Fisk in my top 10 and maybe top 5 catchers of all-time. This rookie is in mid-grade. In person, when I met him in the early 90’s at spring training, he wasn’t super friendly….but maybe he just had a bad day! I feel like the ‘72 Topps set design gets overlooked, but the retro style has been growing on me and I need to pick up a few from the set!
