Ronald Acuña - Page 1889

I wish a 18 Topps Chrome blue /150 (non auto) in a 9 would come up for auction…

I don’t own a single decent Acuna right now and I think that’s the one I want. What do y’all think it would auction for right now?

I was at a card show a couple of weeks ago and a dealer had a raw on in their showcase. It was stickered at $700.

I tried to check comps and could only find autos on eBay. I collect Acuna but wasn't confident in what the card was actually worth and am trying to save for a BCA so I passed.

This was the 1 card I targeted more than anything last year and I think I got mine at the low water mark—or at least close. It’s amazing. I hope you are able to find one!

There are two PSA 9’s on eBay now for $750. I think if one auctioned it would go for <$500.

I’m also a fan of the waves which are to /75 I believe. I know most people don’t seem to like them as much but I’ve been hoping one of those would come to auction soon too.

Thanks! It’s a beautiful card no doubt.

Love that new age graphing. When 1 point is way above the others. The Phenomenal Anomaly! (Can't say outlier since those can be dismissed

)

Good read in relation to the new throwing metric added by statcast.

“ Going back to his 2018 debut, he’s tied for second-best in getting runners to hold (+23), despite missing nearly an entire year due to his 2021 knee injury. That, for all the great throws and incredible assists, tells you just as much about how opponents feel about Acuña’s arm.”

I'm all about those secondary brands. I have this coming on Thursday.

lauriontj · 07-20-2023, 04:59 AM

Will probably list this over the weekend. If anyone is interested, you can PM with offers.

Rabs · 07-20-2023, 07:50 AM

Why???

theplane · 07-20-2023, 11:13 AM

Getting close on the Acuna 2019 Topps S1 silver pack rainbow in PSA 10 -- if anyone has or knows where to find the superfractor or an orange refractor, please let me know!

Rabs · 07-20-2023, 11:31 AM

Ah so you have the Super I've been looking for. Nice!

Thanks! It popped up on eBay last summer I believe -- you might have been on the other side of that bidding war. If I can get ahold of the Series 1 super, I might be willing to part with the update super...

Yeah I do remember that being listed. Congrats!

Sounds like a plan keep me posted. I like the Update version better personally.

I've got one of these

And because this thread is lacking in pics, here's a few more I stumbled across while looking for that Blue Wave.

Some PJ Goodness:

Pro Debut:

Few of my low-key favorites for various reasons (all pack-pulled during the halcyon days of 2018):

And ending with a bang (also pack-pulled in '18) though it's been posted before:

Edit: Well, there actually were plenty of pics since I decided to go searching for that blue wave.

Love that Leaf Auto. Hadn't seen it before. Sick BB & Silver Pack runs...

Lonewolf · 07-20-2023, 01:16 PM

30/60 seems doable, and 30/50 seems all but guaranteed at this point. I would love to see him do 40/50 or 40/60 though.

I'm still not sure he'll get to 40 HRs but would love to see it!

He's on pace for 39.22. So he's right there with where he needs to be.

2018 Topps Update White Jersey w/ Bat PSA 10 up for auction. Guessing it'll finish just over 6K.

Awesome cards! That white jersey auto is insane!
