I don't regret the decision now. Especially because I don't think I could afford one now if I wanted one.
This might be the only thing I have signed that I would consider trying to get slabbed, only because it's so neat.
Side note: back in 2018 they had a practice here in Hawaii for the MLB team that was traveling to Japan. Talking to some of the staff, it sounded like there was a chance that the Japan team was planning to do the same in the coming year or two (practice in Hawaii before coming to the States to play). COVID messed with those plans. With the way Japanese players are coming to the MLB, I hope they try again at some point. Especially because I doubt the Japanese team would be the zoo this event in 2018 was.

That signed scorecard is a very cool piece.
In case you are open to a trade, please let me know, thank you.
