For sure. He looked a little strange crossing home plate Monday night and apparently was feeling some pain afterwards but finished that game. Crazy that they left it up to him whether or not to play last night when he'd be missing some time anyway with a 2:10 game today and a 12:40 game on Friday. The obvious thing would have been to sit him yesterday and see how he felt for this afternoon. Just reckless to not make your star player rest after something like that given his injury history.

He said in an interview "I'm worried" about his latest injury.

Achilles injuries seems to be a pro trainers Achilles heel, Durant and Haliburton come to mind among the many other explosive NBA and NFL players to have the issue, makes sense that Ronald has this issue considering all his surgeries on the ACL. He need to shut it down and rest until 2026 if it is not already ruptured.

Hoping Ronald isn't snakebit with an Achilles rupture.

Just picked up my second copy of the 2018 Target Exclusive Rookie Autograph/25.

Spectacular pickup
These cards are almost non existent IMO.
PR of 25? I think 3 or 4 have surfaced for sale to my knowledge. And it’s not like people haven’t been shredding 2018 blasters for years now..

Between Blowout and eBay, I've seen four copies and picked up two.

One in 2020. One this week.

It was a redemption card, but no one knew the print run until they started showing up on the secondary market.

Doh sweet pickup! Missed seeing that one. Do you know how long it was up before you bought it?

That’s a great pickup! If I would have seen it, I would have been all over it

How much did the card cost you in 2020?

Not the same but close.

I had the 2018 update white SSP auto in PSA 10.

I paid 20.1 in March 2022.

The pop report on that must be minuscule!

That white ssp is my favorite acuna of all time.
