His offensive threat reminds me of Bonds. Don’t pitch to him, he will CRUSH it. He has a shot of hitting 400 in this shortened season.

I would walk this dude if pitching to him with the baes loaded.

Maybe now they regret buying so much Acuna hype.

Nope not at all made a lot on Acuna. But Soto is a long hold for me. People should’ve been buying both

Wow your Soto collection is AMAZING!

KhalDrogo · 08-15-2020, 08:27 PM

Do you guys remember how badly he struggled his rookie year and early last year with offspeed stuff? I mean, he looked like a high schooler out there. This is so unbelievably impressive. Best hitter in baseball. Hands down. Not even close.

there was no reason not to collect all three in 2018

JRX · 08-15-2020, 08:32 PM

He really benefits from the schedule. What good pitching is he facing? Mets have nobody outside of Degrom, Braves have no special starters, Marlins?, Nola is only good Phillies starter and now he's facing Baltimore.

ThoseBackPages · 08-15-2020, 08:33 PM

US300!!!!!!

Interestingly, he's only faced the Mets and Orioles this year lol

We'll see but 12k+ of paper and 7k+ of the chrome isn't that small a supply. Seems that year graded well. There's about 5k more Soto paper than Tatis 410.

Lol!!
He only destroyed the best pitchers last year in the playoffs. Cole, Verlander, Kershaw am I missing anyone...?

it's quite apparent he can hit good pitching and bad pitching.

his average against the fastball took a dip last year and so far is only .200. Just wait until he ties it all together he's still learning at 21!

Tatis is in the factory set

JRX · 08-15-2020, 08:42 PM

He's one of the best hitters in baseball, but I think a .583 ISO and 483 WrC+ are a tad unsustainable.......unless he gets to keep facing the Mets and Orioles lol

Well you see when you win and and hit lots of hrs before your’e 21 people send your card in for grading. Tatis is going to the grading companies as we speak. By the thousands and thousands. Tatis 410 probably has dbl? amount printed compared to us300 when you factor in complete sets etc. go buy tatis. Watch what happens
