Clark was the hottest thing in my local hobby scene in Mississippi when I started collecting largely based on his awesomeness on that legendary MSU team. Every birthday party that I went to from the...

That's more a function of them not signing big free agents than it is Baltimore being a place where cardboard value goes to die. They've got an exciting young group of players and are one of the more...

I've got a small Alonso collection which I always felt slightly conflicted about as a Braves fan, so I'm pleased to see him out of the East. I've been pleased in general with the Mets' moves this...

I wonder if Kent getting in will see Pedroia getting a bump. Utley looks like he’s well on his way eventually, but Pedroia is iffy.

Murphy’s Upper Deck Reverse Negative has tripled in value in PSA 9 grade in the last six months or so as well. I’m hoping it comes back down to its normal range.

No clue, but I’ve long had 2038 as my cutoff date for buying new cards as I started collecting in 1989 and like the idea.

I just wouldn’t call the favorites winning in a sport where they seldom die predictable. It also kind of glosses over Raleigh’s 60 homer season. Heck, Soto’s 30/30 season (almost 40/40) makes the...

Ohtani is getting it if the Dodgers win, but it's more the fact that his series OPS is almost 600!!! points ahead of any of his teammates, than MLB "having" to award him the honor.
