What I Thought:
Tons of Rookies, Tons of numbered cards, and a GU card makes the 2007 Topps Baseball Updates and Highlights a great bang for the buck. I pulled 9 numbered cards from the box as well as 62 rookie cards including Phil Hughes and Hunter Pence. To top the box off I also pulled a Ryan Howard Box Topper which was a nice bonus.

I'm planning on breaking some as soon as it comes to the retail places or else I'll take a trip out of town for some. I enjoyed this product last year & already got a Prince Fielder AU & Chris Young plate from trades!
