Barely missed a third.

Still has only struck out 4 times this year. That's the most impressive thing to me.

His glove impresses me. I'd collect him just for his fielding.

He'll make the HOF just because of his glove. Human highlight reel.

BTW it was only a matter of time until he got hot...

Glad to see this thread get started! And very happy to see Nado get hot over the past few games.

Here are a couple of my favorites. Maybe we can keep this thread going.

Nice updates!!

The gold and black refractors are notoriously off-centered. 10's are nearly impossible.

7 consecutive Gold Gloves to start a career will do that.

Ichiro has the record (10 straight GG to begin a career). That record could be in play.

This is true. My gold update is O/C. But can't complain when I bought it for $30.



Here are some of my favorites just to celebrate the thread:

That Camo Update is sweet! Looked for one of those for about a year and now they are a bit too pricey. Also looked for a black, either from Update or Chrome Update, and they have gotten really expensive.

Here are a couple more of my favorites. The 2014 Topps Rookie Cups are so cheap and a great looking card so I started working on the parallels last year. Below is the best looking of the bunch.



And this Chrome Purple Refractor just got back from PSA. I bought it for around $10 raw (it was listed under "Arenando") and lucked out with a 10. LOVE when the color parallel matches the team colors.

Very true, and it's incredibly difficult to find low numbered parallels of nearly every release.

One thing I have noticed, whoever his fans/collectors are, they are cheap AF. Not sure if that is a CO thing, or what, but it is embarrassing.

I'm buying for sure, and willing to pay handsomely!

There's always been a negative "Coors" stigma around Rockies players. He falls in this camp with home/away splits, bit his defense will be what sets him above the rest.

I forgot I was buying his cards a few years ago. Just found nice PSA 10 Wal Mart, Black Refractor, 1st Chrome and Topps Chrome Update. Sharp cards.

Will do! I have noticed the 2010 BC Auto is tough to price, never see them in PSA 10 a whole lot.

Yeah, those are tough due to centering. He has very few 9.5/10's compared to other stars as well.

I am saying to price. I know the pop is low, 15 or whatever. But what is it worth is unknown to me.

Yeah, I was saying the same thing. There's so few of them that the prices are all over the place since they come up so infrequently.

Will show off some relatively big ones later when I get home. Here’s a decent start since a few others have mentioned it.
