No kidding.

But I do think he will come back strong. Especially at the plate and likely on the mound too.

Hold!

Not that I think Ohtani is a bust (hobby wise), but am really glad I sold my /25 S1 23 auto of his back in July.

Happy to pray for a future healthy and productive Ohtani. New peaks will occur in the next 3-5 years. Possible buying opportunities right now for those that did not buy at this years peaks.

You can always buy them back, but the numbered stuff might not show up in the future. Congrats on those who sold high. His stuff will go up again as you stated.

I think for long-term "investors", this winter may be a good time to pick up Ohtani's for the long haul.

Funny thing is that prices are still vey resilient. I'm hoping we see some declines and less bid volume soon. Prices are down at varying rates (low-end 20-40%, high end 15-20%) but it's still way higher than the start of 2023. It's shedding gains like a stock regathering momentum.

I really wish the prices of the cards I want would go down. Base RCs and slabs might be taking a tiny hit (especially as pop counts continue to increase dramatically) but the rare Ohtani's are still climbing.

agree with this...my sales of base have been rock solid....I'm still a cautious buyer on high value stuff.

I've got a target for a couple rare ones once the offseason hits. Need the lower prices

Seen on Twitter…Today was Angels photo day. But Shohei Ohtani wasn’t available for it. So they used a body double, and will presumably photoshop him in. He was taken through a back exit by Angels PR.

Sounds like he wanted to be in the lineup tonight but Nevin wouldn't let him.
