My first pickup from the Orioles 2015 draft class was this 2014 Leaf Trinity Pure Ryan Mountcastle auto numbered 22/40. The card is awesome and marks my second Pure auto, the first being my Hunter Harvey.
These are really amazing cards. They're clear acetate cards, which I really enjoy. I remember when Marvel put out acetate cards in one of their sets back in the 1990s, and I had a great time building that set.
I saw that there is a Brooks Robinson like this one, so you know I will be going for that pretty soon.
Mountcastle was the Orioles second pick in the 1st round of this year's draft. He looks to be a pretty good hitter, even thought many of the "experts" felt like the O's drafted him way too high. I'll let his performance tell me how he turns out.
I just hope he doesn't turn out like Billy Rowell.

Ebay Pickup - 2014 Leaf Trinity Jeff Hoffman Auto
I picked up this really cool auto of former ECU pitcher, Jeff Hoffman, off of Ebay recently for a steal. I paid $6.01 shipped for this card for the sole reason that he was wearing his ECU jersey in the photo.
I live about 5 minutes or so from ECU and while I didn't attend the school, I do follow them now that I live in the area. I haven't been able to make it to many of the games, especially since Chris's baseball has started up, but I have been to a couple since I moved here in 2009.
Anyway, I was really happy to get this card and will hold onto it as we all watch to see if Hoffman can develop into a major league pitcher.
