Felt like I overpaid for this at the time, and I probably still did, but glad to have it in my collection either way. He had a Series for the ages.

If you had a large profit in the bag, it was a good time to sell. But man, that is such a cool card, I would keep it forever and give it to whoever is going to clean up my stuff after I croak. Lot of people in Japan going forward that would probably pay a lot for that card.

Picked up 3 Yamamotos during the WS.

Bought this on 10/26 (currently in route):



At the time, I was looking at a couple other Yamamotos but didn't pull the trigger on any of them. Most of them are no longer available ofc haha.

Also picked up 2 raw versions of the same card above (2024 HHN Black Chrome #/75) right after last night's game ended.

Wish I picked up an Ohtani one of these, would've loved to start a Japanese Heritage Chrome Black Chrome run.

Great cards ^^^

Picked this one up before Game 6. Also probably overpaid, but it's PC so a wash at the end of the day.

IMHO, he's being underrated by the hobby.

Two very good seasons to start his MLB career, and now WS heroics that will keep his name in the conversation for years to come.

nm wrong user

Yoshi's mastery of his own body will probably lead to longevity. He flows so smooth and effortlessly when his mechanics are right. Just a matter of him compiling to make a case over the next decade.

the guy just breathes baseball

I mean that in the best way possible. Him doing his warmups in the dugout went very hard.

If you think he can win Cy Young next season, then no.

He will consistently be in post season spotlight as opposed to Skenes playing for a bad team.

As always, depends on the card and price-point!

He's worth every penny they paid for him, and watch out next season. The confidence he has in what he can do is going to catapult him into the stratosphere. Buy now, even if its high.

If you're in the market for a RC 1/1 this has to be one of the lowest "decent" options right?

That was awesome wasn’t it?

He walked out onto the field with all the swag in the world but you can also tell he’s being tongue in cheek about it.
