MY RATINGS:
Front Design: 7 out of 10 Decent pictures, nice design,,same as 06 Topps set except blue foil instead of silver and Opening Day logo added, no team logos.
Back Design: 8  out of 10 Nice layout, full career stats, colorful, good team logo
Player Selection: 7 out of 10 Good, all quality players.
FINAL OVERALL RATING: Fly Out to right. I like the 06 Topps sets designs and the blue foil is a nice change for the opening day set. Only one base keeper makes this an out but still a cool set to collect.
 

Thanks for Reading!
