Quick question. The 2012 update Harper is a RD right? Why does it have so much value vs his base. Or am I missing something? Is it a SP or something?

It's the stupid belief that anything from Update is better.

Without eye black on he looks like when a girl doesn’t wear makeup

kyle1707 · 04-29-2021, 10:55 AM

Probably be off tonight... Would not shock me if he did play...

Will be interesting if he slumps... Gun shy up there.. plus i think lefty tonight

probably sits

Reminds me of when Ovechkin barely flinched getting a puck in the mouth ...

Lefty

he has a SSP flagship which is his best card but super rare, then he has his update and has two different factory compete set variations. leg up / screaming, plus he has an all-star card from update with no rc logo. plus two different sp variations

The update is the only one with a rc logo that has all the normal parallels, plus the factory sets probably have a larger print run than update. (although these variations have sold pretty well lately compared to the update base)

Here's most of my US183 Update parallels. I think I'm missing a blue or two but oh well. I pieced these together from individual scans of the cards so the colors are a bit off. I also have a bunch of base but they aren't as fun.

Cards and 401K · 04-30-2021, 10:09 AM

I watched his short Twitter video, he seemed really matter of fact my face is ok...like many other hitters he has that Jaw guard and that did nothing to prevent this. For a second I was thinking about Tony Conigliaro, I think Harp will come back stronger than ever.

I like the Factory Orange. It's a difficult to land parallel and it's not RD.

oggie · 04-30-2021, 11:45 AM

Does anyone know the story behind the different 2012 Bowman Chrome autographs? There is a more rare white version with a bolder auto and the grey version. Anyone know how these were distributed? Were both redemptions?

WizCards26 · 04-30-2021, 07:42 PM

Really generous and mature response by Harper to the HBP, respect.

Yeah i sold this one back in 2017 for a good amount. Probably goes for more than double now but I've turned that money over 2-3 times at least since then so i can't be upset about the sale.

I like the Rookie Debut, as his RD isn't the same as what's going on in update since then he didn't have another non rookie debut in update besides non rc logo cards and his only other 'flagship' rookies are Complete Set Variations or the SSP so his Rookie Debut cards aren't the equivalent of other rookie's from different years.

Cards and 401K · 04-30-2021, 10:24 PM

Harper was so gracious in his interview actually concerned for the pitcher, amazing!

zbaseball21 · 05-02-2021, 10:33 PM

1-4 w/ BB - Singled to the opposite field in the first. Seemed to aggravate his wrist in the 8th on a swing, ended up bunting foul with 2 strikes, came up as the winning run in the 9th and struck out to end the game.

I was surprised he was still even in the game after how much pain he looked to be in, in the 8th.

I think he has matured a lot since his early days.

The day off yesterday was perfect timing.

zbaseball21 · 05-12-2021, 09:47 PM

3-5 2 1B's, 1 2B .. .308/.433/.577/1.010

All hits were to the opposite field including a double off the left field wall.

He looks like he's got his timing back, and all 3 hits were off of lefties which is always good to see.

His approach and swing looked so good!!

LCM1223 · 05-14-2021, 09:11 PM

That slash line though

On base 4 times tonight

Alwayslefty · 05-14-2021, 09:16 PM

baseball is better when Harper is ballin'. hope he keeps it up all year. I say that wishing I'd been in the hobby in 2012 so I had a stash.

HOFAutoRookies · 05-14-2021, 10:01 PM

Double, 5 times now tonight. Should have been a bomb. Dumb nerfed balls. Should be close to leading the league.
