No one is saying he's not really good

He's not even the best player on his team IMO

I'm from Baltimore and if you are saying Manny Machado I will respectfully agree to disagree.

Us Dodger fans got a glimpse of Manny in 2018 and it's not him

Not a Dodger fan but I'm a baseball fan that lives in LA and I totally forgot they had Machado. He's a very good all around player but something about him that is just boring to me. He never even pops into my mind when I'm thinking of the best players in baseball

Has anyone heard from mwheeler in awhile? I see they are still updating their site with Project 70 items but the other on-demand stuff on the site seems to have stopped being updated? Hope all is well with him.

I agree. It’s a great idea but the execution fell a bit short imo. I don’t think that particular Acuna image was the best choice for a comic book cover either. Needed more action. As a Braves fan and Comic collector, I will still purchase it so it must be sufficient enough lol.

Anyone doing a Tatis set?

I really like the Morning Breath Tatis. The statuesque head shot and colorful background remind me of 1952 Topps. Then, Shore's card is a great Gwynn/Padres tribute. After that, how I feel about the rest of the set depends on how much I'm in the mood for swagger. The set's a good advertisement for how cool Tatis is.

Thinking about it, my favorite player set is probably Ruth's, because it covers a bit of everything in the Ruth mythology.

Yup. Collecting all Tatis and Ohtani cards. Luckily the the artists in the beginning were mostly passing on Ohtani but I imagine a lot of artists have added an Ohtani card to their queue.

I know I'll get ripped but these look like a 7th grade art school show at the mall.

I think they're awful. I think the whole idea is terrible. The worst ones are those drawings like Tatis there or the GRiffey one that look like they were done by a little kid. I'm at a loss as to how people can want those but to each his own, lol.

i had wanted to, but there were some of his cards that didn't catch me. my favorite is the King Saladeen though, i've got the regular, foil, AP, and the autographed version too.

really like that card, idk why, but i do

the one with Gwynn is probably #2 on my list

i will say this...the nickname they are using means "The Abuser". was that Acuna's nickname? or who came up with that?

idk if going by the nickname "The Abuser" is a good thing in today's day and age

It's really tough spending 20 on a petite card let alone 179. I may just drop my vides set.

What mall are you shopping at? Must be some incredible 7th graders in the area. Just spelling his name correctly all those times is impressive!

He's just upset because his entry was not good enough to be part of the 7th grade art show.
