I’ve been big on Hunter since SI did a profile on him right before he was drafted by the Reds. He came off like a great kid with a good head on his shoulders. Been a fan ever since.

Great cards!

I agree. Just listening to his interviews after games you can tell what a mature and classy man he is.

Totally agree...he's an outstanding pitcher but an even better human. Love his attitude and nice to see him turning into the ace we hoped he was.

Obviously a ton can happen to derail along the way but Im getting some early career JV and Mad Max vibes from this guy right now. Took a minute to harness and command but this feels like a guy you just hand the ball to, get outta the way and know he's gonna give you 6-7+ and a great chance to win for the next 10 years.

Couldn't agree with this more. Seeing HG pitch last year totally reminded of watching Verlander pitch in his first couple of years.

My new favorite card here. I’ll add to all your awesome Greene’s. This is the first mini auto Ive ever bought. Not sure what I was waiting for…

Quick and dirty photo dump. The picture that really didn't come out is Topps 3D.

^ Wow! Great cards.

WHOA BUNNY!

Is the red the 1/1???

It is:) It snowballed me into a summer of Hunter Greene excess and enjoyment.

Nice! I've got a blue /99 for $2-3 recently that I was pretty pumped about.

Some recent HG pickups.

This guy is kinda good.

[Soxrule111]

Almost out of my USA stuff, but dudes been dealing. I wasnt a Fan when he was pre draft seemed too arrogant, but since his debut I havent seen anything negative about his attitude.

My only Greene of note. Had tucked away and forgotten but this thread had me looking through my cars storage box.

Nice HG Heritage! I think that error version is pretty hard to find.

Just received this one myself. I'm a bit of a sucker for Flagship mini.

Another recent HG pickup. Hadn't seen this one before.

Anyone else get in on some of the HG collection that sold on EBay last night? It was probably the best collection I’ve ever seen sold all at once for a player I collect.

I’m glad I didn’t know about it, otherwise I might’ve broken my vow to collecting celibacy.

I just checked it out, and yeah, that was a nice collection that was just offloaded. One thing that stuck out… I think I was as dialed in to Greene rookies as anyone. But somehow I completely missed this Topps Chrome SP photo variation?! Was this a late release, or a redemption? I feel like I should’ve known about it before, but I’m just now seeing it for the first time.

It looks like it may be the 2022 Topps Chrome Sonic Image Variation (1:6,399 packs).

Edit: that's what it is, per Cardboard Connection, "CMP code on the back ends #477."

You not collecting anymore? Out of the game?

At least for now. I rode such a high on the Acuna/Soto/Vlad/Gleyber wave (and a little Tatis), that it really warped my sense of collecting. I realized I was trying to recreate those moments. I guess I kinda lost my collecting identity.

I felt the same on this. It took me a bit to identify it. Unfortunately I didn’t bid aggressively enough to win it.

No love for Rookie Debut issues, I know, but this card has a beautiful throwback/retro look to me especially the gold border. I bought a couple since I collect what I like. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20250619/9f8e1d9d263bc81309b53b4516dd03a7.jpg

Sorry about the crappy screenshot! Didn't dig mine out!

I hear ya, man! That’s actually one of the reasons I feel everyone should have a non-hobby-stud PC guy. My Jazz collection acts like a guide to help me figure out which cards are worth having or not (not monetary value, just like, what’s actually a cool card to have).

You always bring insight to the conversation here, so I hope you still hang with us bleacher bums a bit.

Agreed on eye4talent. He strikes a rare balance of card and market knowledge without being condescending or smug towards others interests/ card pursuits.
He’s in my upper echelon of blowout members and hope he sticks around.
