There's too many short term thinkers running baseball. They can't get out of their own way. It's been like this for decades. And it's not changing anytime soon, unfortunately.

Heritage chrome is an insert

Purple come from “hot boxes” about 1:case where all packs have one

I’m sad that LouBob, Vladdy, and Wander weren’t invited to this battle of future dreams

This Tatis thread has really provided some classic Old Takes Exposed material. Somebody should go back and find the best of the best.

Just don’t see why anyone is so worried about who’s better Acuna Tatis or Soto.

Buy them all or don’t buy any or buy 1 it’s up to you.

I don't understand this need to plant a flag on a player. Arguing which of the three players is better is like arguing which of the three bullets heading toward the bullseye are traveling faster.

Newsflash: there's not going to be a consensus for a LONG time. There may not ever be a consensus. You're not going to be able to sway other people into believing what you believe. Why can't we just be happy we have three young, incredibly talented players to watch play and collect them all, as well? No one is saying you can only collect one of these players.

This is a great time to be a baseball card collector. Don't take that for granted. Appreciate it. Let your love light shine.

Do you know why LA is not playing Miami, given they are the worse seed?

Because the seeding only set the first round, and that's how brackets work?
