It's going to be tough to get into that tier while Ohtani and Judge are still doing their thing

I think BWJ will be the next man up once those guys start to decline a little bit, especially if he keeps working on his game

Also, guys that can hit as much as Ohtani and Judge don't play SS and they don't play it well. The most HR hit while playing SS is Cal Ripken, somewhere in the 360s.

There was some guy named ARod who only moved off SS for some other guy named Jeter.

Without the PED issues ARod is a top 10 all time player, I don't think we really should be using him as a point of comparison.

Long term he's still very much in the game...

But the guys who were holding cards hostage at way above all time high market prices back in March are going to have to wait a little longer before they "double in price when he wins MVP".

I used the dip to pick up a Bobby card I had been wanting for a long time.

It's the right move to do selectively.

I'm keeping my eye out for panic sales as well.

I love these. Don’t have one yet, but they’re great cards. Nice pickup now that his prices have come back to earth.

Nice pickup!

I'm still waiting for WBC cards in 2023 Finest and 2023 WBC (in gold /50) to hit auction. Hopefully some will pop up in the offseason.

Good luck! There’s definitely some deals to be had out there now that the ‘25 MVP isn’t baked into his prices.

Thanks! It’ll get to PSA eventually. I keep a stack of cards going and when it gets to around 12-15 or so, and when I have some free time, I send them in. It’s no rush though.
