The Mets Content

I'm determined to get through the TMV mailer before the calendar flips over to 2026, and I'll have nothing less but the 'Everything Else" to show off. 

At least I can be assured that Mr. Met will still be doing his thing for the home team come spring. 
Seeing Pete Alonso cards with the Mets is going to be a little depressing for the next while. I'm trying to look at the good side of it, that being "They didn't win it all with him, might as well look elsewhere", but it still sucks.
Bring on the shininess! Although there is a cloth sticker of DeGrom from 2019 to calm the ol' eyes down a bit. And at least Baty is probably going to be with the team this year. Or at least when spring training starts. Right? 
Unlike with the Tracy McGrady card earlier in this recap, I can find images of the Mound Marvels card without its crucial protective film. So I guess I can leave it as intended, with a giant label hiding Bret Saberhagen.
Let's start the hit parade with this three way relic from back in 2013. And now, a dozen seasons later, Shelby Miller is the only one of these three still in the league as of last season. 
With the slightest hint of a pinstripe, we get a perfect color combination of swatches. And that's always nice when there's variety to go alongside two windows.
And the king of this portion of the mailer is Dominic Smith, who gets the triple play of hits. An auto, a relic, and a manu-relic. 

Edit: I just realized I had one more Dominic Smith card lurking in my COMC to-be-posted box. 
Why not add an auto/relic to this mix too?

One more post to go, and one final time to say 'Thank You' for this particular bubbler.

There you have it!
