I’d like to apologize on behalf of A’s pitching. A 3-run HR to Salvador Perez and two more games scheduled does not bode well for the RBI portion of the Triple Crown.

We need a few big RBI games from him. I do like the last two series of the season for the Blue Jays are against the Orioles and Yankees, who he has killed.With that in mind I’m definitely expecting Guerrero Jr to get to 50.

Bigger issue for the RBI title is that he's competing with 4 other guys. If it was just him vs Sal, it'd be alot more doable. Being behind Sal, Abreu, tied with Devers, and Teoscar within 1 it's very, very unlikely he comes out on top. Getting to 50 can easily happen

Vladdy is going to have competition from his own team for the RBI lead.

Teoscar just tied him with 103.

I searched this thread to no avail. Does anyone know the estimated PR for the Topps S2 NNO? I noticed today that it has the same code as the base cards instead of the SP cards.

Consensus guesstimate is around 80,000-90,000.

It’s not significantly short-printed, but it’s still less common than the pack-inserted S2 production run of 351-700. And then when you factor in factory sets, the SP factor is further accentuated.

Thanks! So, it's obviously not in the same ballpark as the Bat Down PR.

No, not in the same ballpark. But it’s still a notch above your average flagship base rookie, and even above the average Update rookie.

Regardless of the triple crown, vlads Has a strong shot at mvp boys.

Blue Jays now leading the wild card, and vlad leading in HR, batting .317.

Vlad dropped to +1100 from +1500 in MVP betting. Ohtani is still -7000.

Interesting.

I think so, but not 100% sure.

I'd say it's got a similar print run to Soto's US300.

The 2019 print run probably went up by 50% across all flagship products from the year prior. Vlad's NNO was in 5 of every 6 Jumbos that I saw broken and I saw lots. I bought 4 loose jumbos and got 4 Vlads.

The NNO is probably printed about 15% less than Fernando/Alonso/Jimenez across hobby. Maybe it's 25% less than those cards when complete sets are factored in.

Trying to gauge the NNO print run from pop reports might be difficult because so many of them were not grade worthy.

I'd be surprised if they printed more US300's than NNO's.

Normally I would agree with you, but the Press continues to ride O's jock with player of century talk etc.... Vlad can't compete with that kind of press and in the end, the voters are lemmings following cool kids.

That’s laughable since Ohtanis double duty will more than likely keep him from the HOF. He can’t sustain a full season at 27 yet many think he can do this for 4-5 more years. If he keeps this pace he will be done in less than 6 years.

I think this guy is a generational talent so a long term hold, but if you don't want to do that then yes.
