Yordan Alvarez - Page 146

What would be considered the main rookie for him? It'd be the 2020 topps paper and topps chrome right? Is it card #276 or #200?

276 is his flagship, 200 is the chrome version of that.

So 276 is considered his main rookie.

Thanks, I appreciate it. In baseball, Chrome is typically valued more than paper, am I correct?

Generally, yes.

If you’re looking to buy a Yordan card, look for rare and/or numbered parallels. Good luck!

clocsta2323 · 10-20-2021, 06:10 PM

Yes but they are both dirt cheap

whodatbeastly16 · 10-20-2021, 06:14 PM

I have some Yordans, just graded base and a couple parallels. Looking to get some more though, as I think he's vastly underrated compared to the other power hitters of today and just making sure I'm buying what's considered the best (in my price range). Thanks!

Good time to show off this

Great to see Yordan swinging a hot bat.

Pa' carajo!!

i think his topps base card with robert, and bichette is one of the most grossly underated cards he has. Card will be a monster if 2 of the 3 players get in HOF.

Its an amazing card, but not sure you can call it underrated when you can't find one for 4 figures.

I didn't know it existed until someone brought it up recently. It's a big card right now being over 4 figures.

It's funny though, he still may not get the credit he deserves as Gurriel is outshining him statistically.

I don’t know about that. Yordan is having a better overall postseason (1.121 OPS vs. .813 OPS), and he was generally the more dangerous hitter in the regular season. Gurriel won the batting title, but Yordan bested him in the power categories.

Both Buck and Smoltz referred to tonight as "The Yordan Alvarez Game". It got out of control which takes a little of the shine off (imagine if it was a 3-2 final!), but Yordan and Framber got all of the credit tonight.

Not bad for a guy who many said he was done after double knee surgery and wouldn’t be able to put big numbers up because of it. He almost broke the Green Monster

Picked these up a while back for less than the price of a coupe of 2021 Mega Boxes... POP 16. Guess I'm cheering the Astros in the post-season

Wow, that is just a flat out gorgeous rainbow. I haven't paid much mind to Future Stars cards before, but this has really changed my view on them.

Congrats on completing that! Looks fantastic!

Thanks man, I've always loved that set. I think of it as the 2nd year card to have since a player is only featured in that set once.

I'm building a future stars green refractors full set (since they're cheap). I also have maybe 6-7 green Yordans and also 4-5 golds.

Just showed your rainbow to my 6 year old and he was very impressed by all the shininess.

Mission accomplished. I have a 1.5, 4, and 7 year old. My life is all about impressing small children with shiny inconsequential things.
