2008 Upper Deck X





Finally getting around to posting one of the boxes I got for my birthday.  This is one of my favorite sets from 2008.

Pack 1 - Derek Jeter, Chase Utley, Josh Beckett, Garrett Atkins, Eric Chavez parallel, John Smoltz Xponetial insert

Pack 2 - Albert Pujols, Chipper Jones, Kosuke Fukudome, Corey Hart parallel, Carlos Beltran Xponential 2 insert, Rod Guidry Yankee Stadium Legacy insert

Pack 3 - Jake Peavy, Pedro Martinez parallel, Josh Barfield Memorabilia insert

Pack 4 - Magglio Ordonez, Adam Dunn, Haney Ramirez, Jason Bay parallel, Pedro Martinez gold parallel, Torii Hunter Xponential insert

Pack 6 - Jonathon Papelbon, Howie Kendrick, Aaron Rowand, Lastings Milledge parallel, David Ortiz Xponential insert, Don Mattingly Yankee Stadium Legacy insert

Pack 7 - Zach Greinke, Ryan Braun, Randy Johnson, B.J. Upton, Clay Buchholz parallel, Ken Griffey Jr. Xponential 3 insert

Pack 8 - Alfonso Soriano, Grady Sizemore, Mark Teixeira, Robinson Cano, Tim Lincecum parallel, Carl Crawford Xponential insert

Pack 9 - Aramis Ramirez, Russel Martin, Travis Hafner, Jimmy Rollins, Conor Jackson parallel, Hanley Ramirez Xponential 2 insert

Pack 10 - Miguel Cabrera, Carlos Quentin, Michael Young, Matt Holliday parallel, Albert Pujols Xponential 4 insert, Don Mattingly Yankee Stadium Legacy insert

Not too bad of a box.  I don't really care for the Yankee Stadium inserts.  The last pack saved the box.  The Pujols insert is a $12-13 card.  I also like the Griffey insert ($6).
