Does Jason Marquis Deserve A Silk Card?

My latest eBay purchase was a 2012 Topps Update Silk card of Jason Marquis.  The card was only about 2 bucks.  Marquis is a journeyman pitcher who is now with the Padres.  It seems like he has been around forever.  This is probably the most entry level of all the Topps Silk cards.  It probably shouldn't exist.  It is numbered 30/50.  The Silk cards are going to be different in 2013 in that they will include retro cards.  I am not sure how I feel about that though. 

TTM Mailbag: Jason Marquis

My latest TTM success comes from Jason Marquis of the Colorado Rockies. He signed a 2004 Topps #211 and 2005 Topps #228 in only 9 days. Oddly enough, the 2005 Topps card has a strange black smudge on the back. I think I like the 2004 Topps better just because Marquis is running the bases in the photo. Another great success!
