Below are the want lists for the various MLB players that proved to be some of my favorites. While a majority are Hall of Famers, there are some other favorites and 'characters' of the game sprinkled in this collection as well. I appreciate you taking a look! To keep my sets consistent, I am looking for cards in VG+/EX condition with no creases or writing and decent corners. However, ANY card is appreciated. Thank you for looking!
