Bobby Witt Jr. is he legit? - Page 3

crpav · 03-09-2021, 01:58 PM

Just packed up a 4 row box I had sitting behind me at work of cards from boxes I opened and cards from breaks. I'm sure there are some 1st Bowmans, I think..., but big 2 cards are a Bowman 1st Edition gold and a Bowman 1st Speckle refractor auto. Should probably do something with them but it's going home to be stored under steps with the other part of my collection not stored here at work in my cabinet.

At the same time he could be major trade bait if KC has a 5 year plan starting this season. Good time for a contender to snag a big deal next year...
Im not sure what the rest of their farm looks like though.

I had a sterling parallel card up on eBay that I was taking offers on for the past 4 months or so, with no real luck.

Yesterday, got an offer on it, that I reflected based on what sales are currently going for.... And countered with the full price.
The guy asked why bother putting that I take offers if I only want the full price
I replied that I was taking offers and 5 days ago, I would have accepted his offer, but after yesterday, is only take full price

Just sent 20+ Witt Jr's in for grading: Atomics, Sapphires 1st Editions, got these back recently.

Cool. Hope you get full asking price or more!

He one of my off-season targets, so I have a few nice cards of his, but, as always in these situations, I wish I would have bought more.

boxbuster7 · 03-09-2021, 06:44 PM

He is very impressive.

kabrune2 · 03-09-2021, 07:10 PM

I wish I had more of his 1st Bowman Chrome and/or Refractors, I have 2 chrome and 1 mega refractor but they’re badly off-centered, I do have a few nice paper centered. Maybe I’ll look into another few mega boxes or maybe a jumbo hobby box.

his regular bowman sterling auto was bought for my asking of $99.99...

considering 3 months ago, the same card could be had for $50, I'll take it...

could be worth thousands, could be worth $1...

but usually, I make the wrong choice, lol

glassofwater · 03-09-2021, 08:16 PM

Dang gis mojo are exploding I wish I still had more.

f2tornado · 03-09-2021, 09:46 PM

Witt with another ST homer. What are chances he gets the call this year?

boxbuster7 · 03-14-2021, 09:03 PM

This kid is going to be an absolute star. Haven't seen anything like this since Trout

I was just about to post Witt hit another HR... however I doubt he gets to the bigs this year though we can hope. I think he’s optioned to AA with an aggressive push to AAA if he does decent, with a potential May 2022 call-up (labor agreement pending, if they fix the service time manipulation he could start in the bigs next April)

They have no reason to hold him back aside from manipulating service time.

They’ll probably say he needs to work on his defense and get some AB’s above A ball, nevermind he’s crushing spring training.

kcroyalsfan8515 · 03-14-2021, 09:14 PM

Had a great AB his 1st time up.. 12 pitch walk after being down 0-2(just missed a home run foul) .Then made a nice pick and tag on a stolen base attempt by the Dodgers... Looks like he belongs
