The Brewers are heading to the NLCS!! A huge reason for that is William Contreras, who came up clutch with two big home runs during the series. Here are a few of my favorite Contreras items in my collection:
This parallel is my favorite so far for the Series 2 set. Chrome has Frozenfractor and the Murakami that I love too. Lost auctions on both of those. Was able to snag this one though.
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.
I’m calling 2025 Topps Series 2 the William Contreras set. I think he has 16 different cards in this, not including parallels. I’m working on the set but for now I’ll post all of these 1990 35th anniversary cards of his. I really love th 1999 All Star cards. Seeing that card in a Mojo parallel does something happy to my nervous system.
Contreras is my favorite catcher and I sort of stumbled into having three of the four printing plates from 2025 bowman. I’m really happy to have three but would love the 4th.
