If Grichuk missed that incredible diving catch in the 9th that would've been a triple...so close to the cycle

Amazing catch. Cost Trout the cycle, 2 RBIs, and maybe an Angels win.

That's a gutsy play at that point in the game - - nice play on another very hard hit ball.

Another MVP season coming up!! Love it

It's never too late to join the Trout game. I sold my Trout RCs waaay too early, and as the years went by I kept saying to myself his value has gone up so much that I am priced out (I only collect RCs or pre-RC). Decided to bite the bullet towards the end of last season for a few BC 175 RCs... very happy with my decision. The guy is so consistently good, I just wish I could watch him play more. Don't get to see him often living on the East coast and going to bed early for work. Keep it up Mikey!

What if Trout really did “fix” his swing!?!?

Small data size......but his three homers have been just straight up crushed......

Looks like he’s finally getting respect. His 2011 Bowman chrome PSA 9 has been selling $1000+ recently

Wax just took a nice jump also — after about 15 months-ish of flat pricing ~ now, all of a sudden - boom !

Single Cards = Horse
Sealed Wax = Cart

You’d think that, if consumers were logical

Sometimes it seems like wax could sell for $$$ even if the best card is only $$

Trout’s 2011 Sterling cards are so undervalued. (Yes, I am biased because I own one)

I’m jealous, I have yet to buy one.

Any thoughts to his 2012 Bowman Blue #34 numbered to 500. Just bought one for $150. Feel like it’s an under-the-radar card...

Agreed. Traded a PSA 10 BCD and BD for a 9.5 Sterling Refractor. I just couldn't pass up a Gem Trout RC /199. At ~$3500-3700 I feel like it has a ton of room to grow.

His 2012 Bowmans have been increasing so no surprise the paper would as well. Not under the radar. It's paper, people prefer chrome for the most part. One just sold a week ago for $200.

That way for everyone though. Who's sterling cards go for a fair comparison of their other rookie cards. Sterling was/is a higher end type of set. So not as many probably opened them. Meaning not as many have a relationship with it.(Odd term I know. All I could think of)

ThoseBackPages · 04-09-2021, 02:19 PM

Yea, Sterling is weird, as its not a brand that carries vets. so that hurts the name in the long run when 99% of the players do not make it in the hobby

You’re not being biased because it’s true

Appreciate the insight!

2009 Bowman Chrome Mike Trout Auto (Base) recent sales:

3/27/21 RAW: $12k (best offer)

3/17/21 PSA 9: $20.1k (auction)

3/11/21 BGS 9/10: $18.8k (auction)

Can’t imagine how much these would sell for this month

These will be bargain prices by this Summer, if Trout has “THE Year” in 2021
