2008 Upper Deck X

   Hello all. Today I have pack #4 from the repack box which is 2008 Upper Deck X. This is the only one out of the ten in the box that has been featured here on The Cafe (HERE) so let's see which one is better.

2008 Upper Deck X

#39 Justin Verlander (Tigers)

#60 Joe Mauer (Twins)

   Two big stars off the top!

Die Cut #30 Brandon Phillips (Reds)

Xponential # X-AR Aramis Ramirez (Cubs)

   I really like the Xponential inserts in all their levels.

#10 Nick Markakis (Orioles)

#17 Carlos Zambrano (Cubs)

   A decent finish.

Some backs.

BY THE NUMBERS:
Total Cards: 6

Teams Represented: 5
Rookie Cards: 0
Sub Sets: 0
Parallels: 1 (Die Cut Phillips)
Inserts: 1  (Xponential level 1) 
Hits: 0
Keepers for Me: 0 (All available)

MY RATINGS:
Front Design: 7 out of 10 Good pictures, interesting design,  no team logo.
Back Design: 5 out of 10 OK design, team logo, good player factoid, a bit plain and boring
Player Selection: 7 out of 10 Good, all relevant players, some stars.

FINAL OVERALL RATING: Fly Out  to center field. No keepers and an average design make this an out. The player selection and the nice looking Xponential insert gets the bat on the ball.

Don't forget to leave your rating at the bottom.

Thanks for Reading!
