Just for you: Now it looks better!

More likely some sort of fingernail mark/line on the back of the card.

Beautiful card! Congrats!

Love the 6 as a grade. Indifferent towards 7. Don't really like 8.
Also very nice!

90 runs | 32 HR | 101 RBI | 11 SB
.270 BA | .407 OBP | .507 SLG | .915 OPS
4.9 WAR

More walks than strikeouts

Keep doing your thing, Soto

Reports of his demise were exaggerated.

Padres have an outside shot at a wild card spot thanks to winning 8 in a row. Going to need help, but it’s possible.

w/ the Cubs, Marlins, Reds and Giants (all teams in front of them) crapping the bed down the stretch...it's possible. They will need to stay electric for the last 8 games (4 games back currently).

I can already taste your tears when Soto beats Acuna in ATL.

It's amazing how a "down" year is still what, top 10/15 MVP finish(maybe)?

It’s a shame for him and his team that they’re just now starting to extract their head from their backsides. Too little, too late.
Maybe the most underachieving squad in recent memory. Cy Young season from their ace, a strong showing by Juan who is surrounded by a probable HOFer in Machado, an electric talent like Tatis, top flight player like Bogarts, one of the games most dominant relievers and seemingly enough complementary pieces to be easily a top 2-3 national league team and they still aren’t even .500 on the heels of an 8 game winning streak.

+84 run differential. That’s why I’m saying this isn’t simply a case of bad luck. They’re just a bad clubhouse. And bad clubhouses find ways to lose games.

No doubt that because Ha-Seong Kim threw an apple at Tatis' locker at 3pm was the reason they lost 5-4 that night and won 7-1 the night after instead of spreading those 11 runs over both games for two wins
