Smart man. Lol

That card does not suck. Wowzers.

Love this, not everything has to be graded. I like the quality of Beckett's slabs but they're too cumbersome in volume, was never a fan of PSA and since it's my PC, very little is even in top loaders.

Somewhere in this thread I saw a comment that everything worth grading already has been... well I disagree.

This comment made me reflect and dig through things I put away 6-7 years ago. I had a general idea, a base & purple 2018 Topps Chrome autos, more than a couple 2017 Bowman WBC megafractors. A lot of base Bowman RCs and Topps Chrome and parallels.

Older than you, not significantly but enough that I wouldn't wear a jersey of someone younger than my kids or have a smart phone to take a photo but do have a digital SLR that hasn't been used in years.

Don't have a final tally but it's a pretty decent amount, nothing extravagant but at least 50+ Bowman paper RCs, Topps Chrome & Holiday Updates and insert sets. Not a big flagship fan so wouldn't have much of anything but did break a small amount of the less desirable brands as well.

Great timing as this came in today. I was able to knock another rookie off my want list. Sold a couple of Witt cards, and a Caitlin Clark auto but well worth it

hammertime · 09-02-2025, 06:51 PM

LASER!

And gorgeous gold minted! That one's on my want list!

LMFAO What a joke. They need something to stir up ratings.

(Not including tonight's stats)

fWAR Ohtani 7, Schwarber 4.4
bWAR Ohtani 5.6, Schwarber 4.3

hammertime · 09-02-2025, 08:52 PM

Yeah they have hours of airtime to fill and need to try to drum up some suspense. But yeah, nah.

With only 32 innings pitched, his pitching WAR per baseball reference is only .2. Barring injury, Shohei Ohtani will win his fourth mvp.

I agree with you, I think plenty of nice cards haven't been graded. Probably 6 or 7 of mine were graded but it drove me crazy so I finally figured out how to crack a slab and went to town. I understand why people do it, its just not for me or my collection.

Updated WAR(counting last night's game)

bWAR (DH) 5.6, (Pitching) 0.2
fWAR (DH) 6.0, (Pitching) 1.2

For anybody looking at Fangraphs on their phone with a browser like me(not sure if they have an app), you have to scroll down a bit, then a button will pop up on the top left that says "menu", then you click on that, then "Pitching" to see Pitching stats and WAR. Because by default, it's on Batting stats and WAR.
