Collecting Cleveland Baseball Since 1982

Collecting Cleveland Indians Topps team sets from 1952-present, as well as post-war minor and major league autographs.

New Arrival: Barolo Colon, sp, Texas Rangers

I grew up in Cleveland in the 90’s, and Bartolo Colon was a big part of those late 90’s and early-00’s Indians clubs. And he was even important to the post-Colon Indians since the club got a nice haul of prospects when he left–to include Grady Sizemore, Brandon Phillips and Cliff[…]

New Arrival: Mike Papi, of, Cleveland Indians

  Mike Papi was drafted by the Indians in the 1st Round of the 2014 draft out of the University of Virginia. He was considered one of the most polished bats available in the draft and was expected to move quickly through the system. He has managed to get on base[…]

New Arrival: Brett Butler, of, Cleveland Indians

Brett Butler was only with the Indians from 1984-1987. During that run he was pretty great, hitting .288/.373/.369. He averaged 5 HR and 41 SB a year, all while playing a very solid center field. He was the kind of center fielder that any team in the league would fall[…]
