Julioooo is a bad mofo!

anchorednw · 10-15-2025, 07:33 PM

Julio's best rookie card.

ThoseBackPages · 10-15-2025, 07:33 PM

you love to see it!

Didn’t anybody tell Julio that Blowout declared his career over???

ThoseBackPages · 10-15-2025, 09:02 PM

Expectations were (perhaps unrealistically) sky high after his rookie season and he has yet to meet them. This is a good thing for people like me who thinks his best years are ahead of him, allowing me time to scarf up his rookies in card show bargain boxes.

I also really like this image and grabbed a few. Hoist the trident! 🔱

I mean, through his first four years he's averaging 30/30, .800 ops, 130 ops+, 6.3 bWAR- higher expectations would certainly be unrealistic!

Dudes coming off a 6.8 or 5.7 season WAR and on the verge of going to the world series. Really don't know what more anyone should be expecting. And he is only 24 for a few more months.

Agree, but he had a 6.2 his rookie year, 5.5 as a sophomore, and 4.3 his third season (granted he missed some games). It simply doesn't fit him being an imminent 40/40 threat talked up a few years ago. That was the lofty expectation on the dude. He still could achieve it. As you stated, he's only 24, still a few years from a typical career peak.

evileddie · 10-16-2025, 12:05 PM

Julio is my favorite non-Cub. I hope he continues to do great and somehow the Mariners can win the WS. They have been a lot of fun to watch this year, especially after the trade deadline.

That’s a fun card.

10 WAR or hobby-worthy no more.

I memba the Jose Ramirez thread like this. Pepperidge Farms remembers.

MLB.com has named J-Rod as the leading candidate to win AL MVP next year. Kinda crazy, but I could see it happening.

If he can finally not suck at the start of the season, I'd consider him the strongest contender to unseat Judge. That's a big if. Still, I'd put Judge and Witt ahead of him for sure, even if J.Rod puts together a strong April-June.

This?
https://www.mlb.com/news/2026-mlb-award-predictions

Guy is predicting who could win, without picking the obvious favorite.

I see JRod 6th in betting odds but roughly the same as Kurtz & Vlad Jr, trailing Judge, Witt, & Raleigh.

Added this to the growing J-Rod PC for under $9 from Fanatics Collect thanks to a $25 free credit for zero effort. Believe the print run in around 780 for these according to the 22 SCC thread.

Fantastic page of pick ups!

Absknicks · 01-09-2026, 12:55 AM

Even with the fake defensive WAR boost, hard to imagine him winning an MVP until his plate approach improves a LOT.

Still talking about a .320 OBP guy with a really flawed approach up there. He's still young so it's always possible but he has 2500 MLB PA under his belt already and what has he improved since being called up?

his social media presence?

Scarlet Knight · 01-09-2026, 02:42 PM

Of course, I'd like to see him finally have an early season (April/May) to remember

With that said, 10 more seasons equal to the one he had in 2025 and he will most likely be a HOFer. I'll take that.
