The April Contest: Better Late than Never

I wasn't foolin' you when I said I'd have the April Contest up yesterday.  I had every intention of getting it posted and then I ended up fighting with a vacuum cleaner for an hour and a half.  I had to disassemble the thing to get a clog out of the hose only to find someone (couldn't have been me, could it?) had sucked up some type of small stick. Of course it was wedged in there and all the dog hair was making quite a plug.  Gross. 

Did I really just type all that?  Just skip that part. 

As I mentioned yesterday, I opened two GQ blasters and a couple of the value packs.  One of the value packs gave up an auto and I got two of the best inserts of all time from the blasters. 

I'm talking about the Collisions at the Plate inserts.




I pulled this Salvador Perez CATP card.  Sweet! 

NOW FOR THE CONTEST! 

You get two chances to win.  First, guess the second Collisions at the Plate card I pulled.  Here is a list of those cards so you don't have to go look it up yourself. 

CP-BM Brian McCann

CP-BP Buster Posey
CP-CF Carlton Fisk
CP-CR Carlos Ruiz
CP-GC Gary Carter
CP-JB Johnny Bench
CP-MM Miguel Montero
CP-SP Salvador Perez
CP-WR Wilin Rosario
CP-YM Yadier Molina

Second, leave a comment with your guess for which auto I pulled. Here is a list of the autos from this year's GQ.(I took the liberty of removing a few of the autographs to improve your chances.  I'm swell like that.)

Autograph Set Checklist
GQA-AR Anthony Rizzo
GQA-BH Brock Holt
GQA-BHA Bryce Harper
GQA-BJ Brett Jackson
GQA-CR Carlos Ruiz
GQA-CRJ Cal Ripken Jr.
GQA-DR Darin Ruf
GQA-DS Dave Stewart
GQA-FF Freddie Freeman
GQA-GR Garrett Richards
GQA-JA Jim Abbott
GQA-JB Jose Bautista
GQA-JK John Kruk
GQA-JM Jesus Montero
GQA-JP Jurickson Profar
GQA-JR Josh Rutledge
GQA-JS Jean Segura
GQA-JSH James Shields
GQA-JU Justin Upton
GQA-JZ Jordan Zimmermann
GQA-MT Mark Trumbo
GQA-MTR Mike Trout
GQA-NC Nelson Cruz
GQA-NM Nick Maronde
GQA-NR Nolan Ryan
GQA-TF Todd Frazier
GQA-TG Tony Gwynn
'GQA-WM Wade Miley
GQA-WMA Willie Mays
GQA-WP Wily Peralta
GQA-YC Yoenis Cespedes
GQA-YG Yovani Gallardo
GQA-YGR Yasmani Grandal
GQA-ZC Zack Cozart

If you guess the right Collision at the Plate card, you get one entry in the randomizer.  If you correclty guess the auto, you'll get two entries in the randomizer.  If no one guesses either one, you'll all get randomized together. 

The prize will be a $10 gift card to Wal-Mart or Target (winner's choice) or a prize of similar value if you don't live near one of those stores. 

Good luck!
