Go Red! 2014 Topps Target Red Kelly Johnson

 February is American Heart Month. As a nod to the Go Red for Women activities going on this month to help raise awareness, I thought I'd contribute several "red" themed posts sprinkled throughout the month.

Let's talk about this card...

Kelly Johnson played ten gmes for the Red Sox in 2014. He was acquired from the Yankees at the deadline for Stephen Drew. A month later, he was traded to the Orioles in a four players deal. So, obviously, not a lot to say about his Red Sox career. Glad he was able to get a card out of it, though.

It's a simple card. I'm guessing there weren't a ton of pictures to choose from. I don't actually remember the Red sox wearing the blue and red combo like that. That's nice to see. Otherwise, it's a rather non-descript card. Which I guess you get every once in a while.

"For 100 years the American Heart Association has been leading the fight to save lives from heart disease and stroke. We've invested more than $5 billion in heart and brain research, leading to the development of the artificial heart valve, the defibrillator, and even CPR.

Countless lives have been saved. But we are still losing someone every 34 seconds in this country to heart disease. It's the cause of death of 1 in 5 people - that's more than all forms of cancer combined. Chances are you or someone you love will be affected by this deadly disease."
