It was a question posted on Twitter…

Can Juan Soto still win the MVP if he hits over .400 and the Nationals go 0-162?

Depends if harper plays well and the phillies still dont make the playoffs

Just got these back from psa. All were BGS 9.5. Hoping to snag another nice 2018 before the season starts.

Yowza!

mikeex0114 · 03-12-2022, 11:42 AM

Sooo much Soto goodness...

What do we think that bgs9 Black will end at?

Great cards! Crossovers or crack/submit? Have a couple dozen quad 9.5s or better would like in PSA 10s.

Probably crack outs if it was just 3 cards. Curious what were the subgrades.

I've considered trying a min gem cross (crack out, not literally a crossover) with a '16 BC auto with '9' centering....but the '9.5' corners so often look like PSA-9 quality on the back. I haven't bought one yet, but that would give the best chance at the lowest buy-in I think.

Here were my results of a crossover on two gem mint+. The '10' surface crossed and the other with a '9.5' surface did not.

Thanks for sharing that thread! I've got a handful of Topps Heritage autos that interestingly enough, has three 9.5s with 10.0 surfaces. Not sure since it's "paper" whether the 10.0 surface would help a crossover cause but great to know the tip about surface being the hardest to determine with a card inside a caseholder. The base Soto auto you got the PSA 10 bump on...based on today's value, did that give the card a 50% bump in value?

Thanks, all!

They were crackouts and true gems at that. I don’t like historical odds of crossover tbh.

Min gem? Or true 9.5

In my opinion, this is one of the best blacks I’ve seen in awhile. Love the white on the top and bottom borders. The image they used for Soto is a great image too. Ill be picking one of these up.

Thanks! It's been a while since I cracked a BGS case...seems daunting lol.

Pulled my first Soto auto today, on card would've been better but beggars cant be choosers. TC Update #ed/5.

I have an Ebay search setup for just this exact card.

Had not seen one yet I don't think.

Congrats!
