Ha! When I glanced at this, I thought you meant 900 home runs or even 800... and right away I was like, that's ridiculous. And then I took another sip of coffee, thought about it, and I changed my mind.

I know he got a late start relative to guys like Pujols and ARod, for example, but if he has longevity like them, or more like Dave Winfield, as I have always said, he still might get into rare space. Obviously not 800, but I think 600 is certainly within reason at this point.

People have always been scared by his size, injury-wise, but he is more like a LeBron James freak than a Phat Albert or pumped up Mark McGwire.

I seriously think we'll see him play well into his 40s, and stay productive, too. The hardest thing at that point will be convincing himself not to lay out for every ball.

I saw this, thanks! Strong price already. That's over $45,000 with the premium. There is another on eBay for $65,000. Both are BGS 9.5 "min" gems, each with a 9 subgrade. So my question is, do we count these at PSA 9s more or less?

Personally, the more I look at low-numbered color cards like these, the less I care about the grades, especially with all the shenanigans in the grading world.

So long as it's not like a 5 or a 6 with a very obvious imperfection.

That is a safe assumption. PSA grades heavily on centering, and with that having a 9, PSA would make that a 9.

A BGS 9.5 does hold a premium over a PSA 9.

Larry,

The National is in two weeks. You should consider attending if you are looking to pick up that type of card.

what justifies the 6 grade? looks pretty clean in that photo, really pops

[ThoseBackPages]

grade is accurate. the lower right corner is dinged like it was dropped (shows more on the back)

Judge fell to page 2? Let's change that with my latest pickup.

Those foilboards are so nice in hand. One of my favorite parallels in 2018. Nice grab!

Thanks! As soon as I saw it I knew I wanted it. The scan doesn't do it justice in terms of the glare and shine.

#36!!! Where my dogs at? Still pacing for 59. What odds do you give that either he or Raleigh or both reach 60? Wonder what the line is on them both doing it? Bet $100, make??? I don't know, because I don't gamble. Except on baseball cards

If Bellinger and Stanton remain in the lineup and keep hitting like this, Judge will see some hittable pitches. 60 is definitely in the cards if everyone stays healthy and Judge can’t really be pitched around.

Do you consider sapphire base a refractor?
