Julio Rodriguez
 

Never created a topic about a player, but man I think this kid has future star written all over him. He's slaughtered it in every level he's been at, and even shined in the AFL (I think I heard he was the youngest player there? Or one of the youngest?).

Hoping for a HUGE 2020 for him! Here's what I've managed to collect of him. I'm trying to get one auto out of every set that he comes out with, at least until he gets in the majors.

Only non auto I have of his... gold refractor 1st Bowman.

BC 1st auto speckle #/299. I know these aren't super popular, but I love how sparkly it is!

nice cards

This kid is a stud!! He slaughtered AA pitching when he was up there at the end of the season and he’s only 18!! Nice cards, love the JRod Show hit!

Loved watching him play in the AFL!

Im a big fan of his as well. That Bowman Sterling Red die cut looks great!

Never heard of him.

Where art thou Anthony Corona?

[QUOTE=NYRE2PECT;15352182]Where art thou Anthony Corona?[/QUOTE]

In a back lot somewhere working with Julio on outfield routes and cutoff throws.

Also a big fan of J-Rod. I picked up his first EEE auto for $4 shipped when it came out. That is the only auto I own of his. Hoping for big time things from the kid.

Guys remember he is a mariner prospect lol

He is very impressive, just turned 18 too I think a couple months ago hope they dont rush him

Got this signed during afl

Nice! :)!

[QUOTE=awz50;15352335]Guys remember he is a mariner prospect lol[/QUOTE]

Ken Griffey Jr was as well. The team doesn't matter as much as people think it does. Just for fringe prospects. The studs will always get their due.

Anthony made me buy his MEGA

Had this foul ball he hit in the AFL signed right after the game. Great kid hope he does well.[IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20191216/d4275a2e566ed26d90038092a18b6467.jpg[/IMG]

Jared Kelenic says hello

Eduardo is actually decent being a Red Sox pitching prospect


Now that I think about it who was the last to succeed

A lot suceed once traded

I cant think of one since Griffey

Btw I'm not bashing the mariners lol

I just like to tease them because of the track record

Alex Rodriguez??

[QUOTE=BLongley;15352892]Alex Rodriguez??[/QUOTE]

Very true

Seems very overrated if a base BC Auto is already $250

Great cards! The Mariners are coming up! Kelenic is the next 30/30 guy in line after Luis Robert, and Noelvi Marte shows promise to become a 30/30 prospect as well.

I wanted to go in on J-Rod but never did pull the trigger, nice to see that you have. Hoping for a great season.

I mean that's not fair.

He is only 18 and killing every level he has faced

[QUOTE=awz50;15353018]I mean that's not fair.

He's 19 in two weeks and a $250 base BC Auto makes him one of the most expensive players in baseball. He's not a 5-tool or even a 4-tool player. He's slow, a mediocre fielder, and in an organization that has an extraordinarily poor track record for developing players

The younger the better. Right?
