I’m liking the 2023 HFA that I picked up

Wrong. Up to 10th now after yesterday's game https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.as...date=&enddate=

He’s also got about 20% fewer plate appearances than everyone ahead of him in the NL, besides Sean Murphy
This is a big negative, not a positive, for his MVP "Candidacy"

TIED for 6th

It’s a positive because he has a higher WAR/PA than most of those ahead of him and tied with him. And I believe he will be starting almost every game moving forward, regardless of the pitcher.

I bid and lost out on a similar parallel the other night, starting to ‘track’ Gorman. I stopped looking at this one because well there only one league ROY and Gorman isn’t eligible this year. Anyhow nice pull and I’m gonna keep following Gorman

Boom!

Huge home run for him. If that didn’t earn him starts against lefties, nothing will.

Gorman has improved greatly since last season, impressive.

Does anybody remember last year when I sold a couple Nolan Gorman BCA gems at callup? I just checked to see how much that cost me given how hot he's been. Turns out the overall market has beaten him him into oblivion. I have a note for him from late October. Since that point he's doubled...to half of what I sold mine for I really thought he'd be up given how much he's produced.

He was really hot at call up last year. He hit a bunch of homers in the minors in April.

But yeah it’s pretty ridiculous.

I was a little surprised by that too. But his 2023 Topps stuff is moving. I bought a red foil /199 for $42 early in the season, and you can’t get one for that price now. His 1988 auto is a hot one too. In general, I think when a player has RC logo cards available when they breakout it hurts their BCA market a bit.

Another start against a lefty. A very positive sign.

I feel like that question has been asked here before. I don’t remember the answer, but I feel like there definitely was an answer.

Sorry I wasn’t much help… just remember that it was identified to an actual jersey.

Which Topps Flagship & Chrome parallels carry the best value? Just curious as I pulled this before the season and Gorman has destroyed expectations. How many Chrome parallels will surpass the clear /10?

I assume golds, clears, reds, and any autos.

Um, that's an absolute monster of a card if (and this is a big if) Gorman pans out. Looks promising thus far though. If I had a gold chrome, I'd absolutely trade it straight up for that clear. Same with any auto #'d above gold /50. Congrats!

One hell of a slump this guy is on. In June batting .117, .401 OPS, and a 44% strikeout rate

I'm still high on his future. Most hitters slump once in a while. I wouldn't want to sell at the bottom anyway!

It can't really get any worse for the Cardinals. Either they figure it out and everyone has fun again, or he gets traded and mashes elsewhere.
