2011 Set - Minnesota Twins

Minnesota has arguably a worse 2011 team set than the Houston Astros. (They total 80 fewer points despite having one more card.) They have better pitching, but since Houston’s season was more affected by their trade deadline firesale than Minnesota, the Twins lack some of the base set batters that helps the Astros avoid being a complete dumpster fire of a team set.


Starter Scott Baker earned the foil, but it was a tough decision whom to make a foil here.

2020 MLB SHOWDOWN SET --- AL CENTRAL

 WE DID IT!!!! This is the last division of the 2020 MLB set and it feels great to get all the card out for everyone before the World Series is even over. So make your trip to staples, and load up on printer ink cartridge's or just make them print it all for you at your local, library, staples, fed ex , ups store. Best case scenario if you are feeling up to it, and have them laminate them for you as well. The AL Central was an exciting division coming into the season. Last years winners the Minnesota Twins made the improvements to become deeper, adding Kenta Maeda and Josh Donaldson among others to push the Central harder. The Cleveland Indians saw great strides from some young pitchers last season and saw them grow even more this current season. The Chicago White Sox went out and signed a ton of talent to come in and play with all their young up and coming players and  they were ready to compete now (and for the future). In this season, we saw all three of these teams take the division lead at some point and it really came down to the final week of the season to see who would fall where in the standings (and in the playoff picture).
