2010 Heritage Blaster League...

From the brain of Dayf, to the pages of PunkRockPaint:

You can check out the full rules here. (Summary: Buy a blaster of 2010 Topps Heritage SRP $19.99; Pick a fantasy team from the 64 cards; Let Dayf figure out the winner at the end of the season.) From this break, I’ll assemble my fantasy team, composed of the following:


2 Catchers
1 First Baseman
1 Second Baseman
1 Shortstop
1 Third Baseman
3 Outfielders
1 Corner Infielder (1B or 3B)
1 Middle Infielder (2B or SS)
1 Outfielder
1 Utility (Any position player or DH)
7 Pitchers (Starters or relievers)
1 Manager (least amount of losses- Optional)
1 Team (most amount of wins- Optional)

We are only allowed to use one SP All-Star type card, so the team will be the base, non-chrome, non-insert cards. Here we go!
