I had a chance to buy that exact game used glove (signed) in that photo/card. I screwed up and didn't bid enough. Haunts me today.

Ronald's legs look good. Nice double earlier. Ran down and caught a ball w/ ease.

Pretty certain I have a camo copy laying around my room somewhere. Was going for the rainbow but you beat me to the platinum. Love the image of the card.

I'll assume you won this Salty? I was the 2nd highest bidder. Easy to tell when it's me bidding. Most my bids are with the players jersey number in for the cents. Sometimes I do them backwards.

What's your point? The goal should be finishing with the best record in baseball and not worry about it. Not look at some percentage chance on some website. Philly was sitting down in that level at this time last year.

My point being that there is no reason Atlanta should factor in Baltimore's record in any of their personnel decisions for the regular season.

Then there's no reason they should care about finishing ahead of the Dodgers. You know, the comment I was responding to.

Sorry, but the team isn't looking at odds on Fangraphs to make any decisions. I guarantee you the team isn't thrilled with how they've been playing, currently lost 4 straight.

I know, which is why it was so weird for you to bring up an AL team.

How is it weird? If you're worried about finishing ahead of the Dodgers for a potential NLCS matchup, then you should also be concerned about a potential WS matchup. This really isn't a hard concept to understand. Finish with the best record and guarantee HFA in every round, plain and simple

Nope! I was outbid, I wanted to pull the trigger so bad but I got bills coming up lol had to take the L unfortunately. But man it’s a beauty, hoping I can snag the next 1/1

I didn’t bid on it. Did have it on my watch list. I tried to make a deal with the original owner when the set was 1st opened. They wanted $1300.

I assumed it was your card. Knew Salty liked those type of cards. Figured he was the one who won it. Guess someone else snuck in. I won the 17 Bowman plate so I'm content with that.
