But it appears they have an endless supply of money to piss away.

This isn’t new. The first 2011 Bowman Bryce Harper paper auto sold on release day for $1,100 - raw.
After a ROY, 2 MVPs, 7 AS selections, and an on-track HOF career, the card is selling for less than 25% of that initial sale.
The truth is that hyped prospects usually don’t deliver in the long-term. Money is made from early sales or sleepers
