Where are you hearing that about him missing substantial time? I can't find anything about his "injury/illness"

Yeah doesn't that make you worried at all? Baker has already said that Tucker will get a lot of playing time so that makes me think that something is really wrong with Yordan. It's been weeks without news on him. I think he misses at least half the season if he attempts to come back.

Hey guys

Is the Yordan Topps series 1 missing logo card an actual error card? Will PSA mark it on the slab that it has a missing logo?

I have one at PSA and specifically marked it as a missing logo but just have to wait I guess. Just wondering if you fine folks knew.

edit:

PSA question answered: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2020-Topps-...8AAOSwrc9e8adL

I sent one in for grading....it came back graded. However, the case on 4 different Yordan cards were damaged, including this one. I've sent it back to them for a free reholder and now they have marked it as "No Grade, No Charge". I'm on hold right now trying to figure out what is up with the card.

Update: got off the phone with the supervisor and she stated that they do not grade error cards and will return it to me unslabbed. She says they are trying to crack down on it, but some get through the cracks.

Ugh. I have a number of Bichette, Yordan, Aquino, and Acuna Missing Logo cards that I pulled, all prepped for PSA. They won't touch them?

Some could fall through the cracks if it’s on a bulk order, but I wouldn’t bet on it after our talk.

Fingers crossed. I wouldn’t have sent mine back to get new holders if I had known.

Sounds like it might have been a prolonged case of COVID then?

They still haven’t said what it was, but it’s the only thing that makes sense.

Could be that very thing. I also heard some speculation that he (and possible Urquidy) could have had trouble with international travel trying to get back in the country. Entirely speculation, but I could see it fitting logically with the info/lack of info that the team kept providing.

In any case, I’m glad we got the update we received today.

Good to hear, hope his knee is OK. He's just DHing, which is smart, for now.

How long was Summer camp? Because apparently it's going to take him and Urquidy that long to get ready. Both didn't do any sort of baseball activities while they were away.

Yeah but he wants to play in the outfield. I wonder if they give a few games just to keep him happy. Or if they can convince him to just DH and tell him maybe next year he can play some in the outfield once his knees are a 100%.

Hmmm 3 weeks doesn't seem long but in a shortened season that's a good chunk of the season. Hopefully they don't need him while he's gone. Don't want to rush him. Would suck if they rushed him and he gets injured(that's the type of luck I have with my favorite teams )

Don't think it was ever said but people just assumed coronavirus. They also didn't say what was wrong with Urquidy (probably coronavirus) but there was another player away and they released info about why he was away.

I haven't been paying much attention, but he is still not playing right?

I have a hr challenge card for him, but I read about a week ago he was in their alternate player camp.

He has just recently been cleared to start camp. Dusty says he’s 2 weeks away from being game ready.
