After lots of attempts to go low on Ebay, I have managed to snag a few more off of my list. They are generally ones that are readily available and inexpensive. That is, however, just fine with me. Removed from the list were Prince Fielder (Crown SGA), Fred Patek (SGA), Lance Berkman (Original SGA), Dave Parker (Lumber Company SGA), Ichiro (2012 SGA), Nomar Garciapara (Boston SGA), Ozzie Smith (HOF),and Bill Freehan.

Here is the list update:
1  Boog Powell (Red Cross)
2  Ernie Whitt SGA
3  Andre Dawson SGA (Expos)
4  Lefty O'Doul SGA
5  Tim Raines SGA (Expos)
6  Stomper Mascot (Oakland Kids Club 2003)
7  Norm Cash (2010 Great Lakes SGA)
8  Mookie Wilson SGA
9  Ryan Zimmerman 2010 SGA
10 Dennis Eckersley SGA
11 Frank Thomas White Sox SGA
12 Eric Davis Reds SGA
13 Tino Martinez SGA
14 Rickey Henderson Stolen Base King
15 Larry Walker Rockies SGA
16 Lou Whitaker SGA (Grand Rapids)
17 Stan Musial (Cards SGA)
18 Tony Womack (Diamondbacks SGA)
19 Ryne Sandberg (Cubs SGA 2009)
20 Carlos Gonzalez (Rockies SGA)

I have left Cash on the list after getting Freehan, so I have 20 remaining. I will add four to the list now: 

21. David Ortiz (2014 SGA) 

This one is brand new and I tend to shy away from those because the initial prices are way too high, but this one is all out cool. Papi started his career as a Twin (my team) and despite his admission of using PEDs, he is a great hitter, a great character, and his love of Boston (my wife's home town) shown most notably after the 2013 Marathon attack is a great player-community bonding moment.

22.  Giancarlo Stanton (2012 Miami SGA)  

I really liked the old Marlins uniforms because they felt very old school, despite the teal color. Pinstripes, nice; fish logo, fantastic.  I still haven't completely warmed to the new orange and black or the stylized jumping marlin...but I no longer place them in the same category as the Cincinnati Bengals or Seattle Seahawks.  Stanton is a great talent who will probably be hitting bombs in St. Louis, Texas, or New York some time soon.  After a few years of that we will all be thinking back to his days in Miami.  Once I have this one, he can hang out with the Royals' Carlos Beltran bobblehead.

 

23.  Bill Mazeroski (Pirates SGA 2006)

I have the 2001 Maz SGA but I really like the look of the 2006 issue.  The earlier piece was an AGP that was among the first to be issued, but the later one has a cooler pose and doesn't look quite as generic as the 2001 version.



24. Don Mincher (Huntsville Stars SGA 2003)

Mincher was a member of the 1965 Twins team that won the AL.  He was a fine hitter who also played for Oakland and the Seattle Pilots, Washington and Texas.  I don't usually go after Minor League issues, but if I recall this one was of Mincher in a Twins uniform.  Out of the ordinary Twins bobble for sure.  Sadly, Mincher passed in 2012.  I can't locate of photo of the bobble, but I will have to keep an eye out for one.

25.  J.R. Richard (Houston SGA)

Richard was an imposing strikeout pitcher before suffering a stroke in 1980. During the second half of the 1970s he was widely regarded as the toughest pitcher to hit in the National League.  His personal story was very sad for many years, but his life apparently stabilized after becoming a minister.  This piece does a nice job of depicting a tall, rangy fireballer and features the 1970s Astros uniforms...which were hideous then, but retro cool now.  Right down to the white Adidas cleats.  It would have been fun to see how good he could have been for several more years.  If Richard were still pitching it is entirely possible that the 1986 Astros would have won the World Series rather than the bad boy Mets.
