I'm sorry, but if Elly De la Cruz wins MVP over Ohtani, even I will cry foul.

Say what you want but he’s really good. Absolutely having a wild season.

Just a sports journalist that needed to put out an article and needed something to talk about. Ohtani and Judge are winning MVP in their respective league without a doubt.

Sho has a pretty good track record against Montas, hoping for a big game tonight.

Tell that to some of the Bobby Witt Jr. fans on here.

I agree with you but with 25 percent of the season left nothing is written in stone. Judge although still putting up good numbers hasn’t been hitting home runs as often, whether his performance can hold off Bobby Witt jr who I feel is his only challenge remains to be seen. Ohtani has been hitting home runs but I never expected his batting average to dip below .300 thing is even if he never hits another home run for the rest of the season there really isn’t anybody in the National League that I think could overtake him for MVP.

Yeah but Judge is now only .015 points back from Witt in average. He leads in 11 categories to Witt's 4 while playing all 3 outfield positions for the Yankees. Yankees are battling for a Division title while the Royals are trying to hold on to the 3rd Wildcard spot (which wouldn't even exist without Manfred). Unless Judge gets injured, I feel the MVP is his.

Oh I agree I meant his only challenge if everything broke right for him, whereas Ohtani really has nobody to worry about as there is nobody close enough to catch him even if tanks the rest of the season.

Ohtani has the "just a DH" stigma to overcome though. I don't think he's got it locked up, and if Ozuna gets the Triple Crown that's going to be interesting.

[seanrs1]

If Ozuna did get the triple crown it would be compelling, but I think with his past history and the Braves just holding onto the last playoff spot that Ohtani would still win assuming he has more WAR and also goes 40/40.

Besides Ozuna can't win, he doesn't have a Topps chrome card for Topps to buy back!!!

And this is why some people have a rooting interest in Ozuna, curious to see what Topps does if he does win.

Heritage action #17 PSA 10 ending in 30 mins with no bids at $500. Usually it’s an $800 card, am I missing something. Seems like a good deal at $500 (albeit no one else bids).

Unfortunately I don’t have the funds right now but if I’m correct on it being a good deal hopefully someone here can scoop it up.

A PSA 10 ended a few days ago for $547, it’s a card that has seemed to go down in value some this year for whatever reason.

[Trueblue]

It will get a bid

True, do you, or anybody know the print run deference between the US1 white jersey pitching horizontal ssp and the US1 batting ssp?

I do not believe there is a difference in PR amongst any of the Update SSPs. Was around 260 last we checked.
