Nah. Once I got my Red I was pretty much done.

I just noticed today that the 18 Big League Red Foil 1/1 is in this auction, I'm watching that closely. I love the 2018 Big League design and parallels.

Yeah that was the real kick in the shorts... I'll be happy if he can stay in.

Love it. I remember pulling one and wondering what the heck it was. Not Ohtani.

saw somewhere where Ohtani was one of the most screwed over by the umps players in MLB. Both pitching and hitting.

Nice collection my friend. Baseballcardpedia.com is a great source for print runs. Just google will get most answers for you or head you in the right direction. A lot of unnumbered runs are just estimated too. DFJ gave some good info on the Ginter X a few posts back. Try those things and if you really hit a tough one post here and I’m sure somebody will have an idea. Much better chance to get an answer on 1 card than a whole stack.

Trout was healthy for only the first 40 games. Rendon was battling injuries and hitting poorly -- .712 OPS. Upton had a .816 OPS the first half -- .460 OPS the 2nd half. Walsh also dropped off a lot starting in July -- .892 OPS in the 1st half vs .536 OPS the 2nd half.

So I suppose it’s easier to see why Ohtani isn’t hitting as well in the second half of the season since he’s not protected by those other good hitters anymore.

Okay, but he's dropped off a lot since the break -- minus .222 OPS. If his performance is that predicated on the surrounding hitters in the lineup, how good of a hitter can he be?

Home Run Derby curse. It’s a thing.

I think Ohtani will admit later that his body felt heavier as the season dragged into the dog days. Especially with nothing to play for in terms of playoffs. It was his first full season both ways and he will need to figure out a better rest schedule to get through it with less fatigue. The bat speed just does not feel as electric - and I can't say I blame him.

Trueblue · 08-29-2021, 12:29 AM

Also, the lineup is a clear factor. You have 2-3 regulars (at best) and a bunch of guys that would be 4th/5th OFs or utility infielders. I'm not so sure even trout has been part of such an abysmal order. The fatigue would have led to a less steep dropoff if the pitcher had to worry or scout any other batter. Do you think they're watching video on David Fletcher and Jack Mayfield?

Gotta agree with Trueblue here. More likely fatigue. Maddon handling him lightly is an indication of that, IMO.
