So, I’m starting a new collection, but I’m tossed on how to organize it.

Do I collect the first appearance of a player in a Padres uniform, or collect the whole year’s worth of roster players, even if, say Casty is still in his Phillies jersey on the card, just as an example. Or like last year when Sheets’s early cards for 2025 were White Sox.

I know the later cards in the year will have them in the Pads unis, but that doesn’t always work for everyone.

So if a player never gets a Padres card, do I still add him to the collection in whatever uni he was in when he joined the Pads? Or just leave it pure Pads cards?

I know it’s a personal decision. But what would you do?
