Trade with Derek from 'The Bench'

It has been a bumper time for packages arriving recently. The three bench trades have arrived, plus a number of e-bay packages . I need to seriously catch-up on my posts.
The first to arrived was a big brick of cards from Derek in Denair, California. He was one of the people who responded to my call for trades on 'The Bench'. His team of choice was the San Francisco Giants. I sent him all that I had and here is the cards he sent back.

I must find a better way of listing these cards.

As I said a big brick of cards! Some that I had never seen and others that will fill some holes. This was the first of three large packages to come from 'The Bench' trades. So far it looks very promising. Thanks to Derek for all the cards. His card in the package had this impressive looking logo for the River Cats. A minor league baseball team?

The Sacramento RiverCats are the Oakland A's AAA minor league team. One step away from the majors. Sacramento is the California state capitol. The RiverCats have won several league championships over the last few years. They also have a very nice stadium, and from what I've heard have exceptional attendance for a minor league team.
