eTopps Offering Minor League Players

Starting today eTopps is offering a selection of rising stars from the minor leagues with incentives for us to pick up these cards. I am posting the e-mail that they sent to me so you can read it first hand. The cards go on sale starting today at 1pm, so if this is something that interests you keep your butt near your computer. I will try and post an update when I get notice of which cards will be released today.

"eTopps is excited to capture the game's youngest players and possibly the game's future big league stars! For the first time ever online, eTopps is now the exclusive online home of officially licensed Minor League Baseball cards. Get in early and follow your Minor Leaguers as they move their way toward the bigs.

This collection will feature players who have been judged by baseball writers and scouts to be their organization's brightest prospects, with the potential for future Major League stardom. We will offer Minor Leaguers selectively throughout the baseball season and capture players as they make their pro debuts at the Minor League level.

To celebrate the approach of Opening Day, we will begin offering cards from the eTopps Minor League Baseball collection on Monday, March 22 at 1PM EDT and continue offering additional cards during the baseball season (while of course also offering MLB cards as well)! The collection will include Minor League stars including established studs like Jesus Montero and hot young stars like Pedro Alvarez as they make their pro debuts.

The collection will be beautifully presented and delivered via a special new eTopps Minor League Baseball design, and brought to life of course on stunning eTopps technology. Cards will be offered individually, encased and be sequentially numbered.

Two Added Bonuses: Those lucky eTopps users who own eTopps Minor League cards of any player who is named MVP of their respective Minor League's 2010 All-Star Game in their online portfolio at 11:59AM (EDT) on August 31, 2010 will receive 5 eTopps Performance Bonus Reward points! In addition, eTopps users who own an eTopps Minor League card of a player who is called up to the roster of his Major League team for the first time between April and August 2010 (prior to the expansion of rosters on September 1, 2010) in their portfolio as of 11:59AM (EDT) on the next business day following their callup will receive 5 eTopps Performance Bonus Reward points as well!

Be sure to visit eTopps on Monday, March 22nd! Cards go on sale at 1PM EDT. And be sure to come back in the weeks that follow for additional cards, leading up to the debut of the 2010 eTopps Baseball season in April!
