Absolutely can not wait to get this autograph in hand...Now I will have to buy 100 sets and hope to get the 1/1. Might be my favorite Now card going forward! Love to see something with all the Phillies Rookies on one card! I need Pat Neshek though...come on lets make it a good one of him getting an autograph from a teammate!

The Baez card is sweet again this year!

It most certainly is. Love the Happ and like the Bryant as well.

Rizzo is awful, but can’t expect them to hit it out of the park on all of them.

If you’re going to get one right, make it El Mago.

Just got this in the mail today. As someone who only collects Topps Now and whose fav player of all time is Ryne Sandberg this was a card that I HAD to have! Thanks to the Plat member who sold it to me!

I keep wondering who he pissed off at Topps for them to not include him. He would probably buy 100 by himself lol. And everyone knowing he would love to sign 1,000 of them TTM or however many if they would just produce the card. I’ve always been salty about the way the Twins did him. Was good with us and then he had his Tommy John and they never gave him a chance to return from it really. He got like a month or so and the pen wasn’t anything special. Wouldn’t have been even considered to be cut I thought. And yeah I’d buy a Neshek Topps Now Auto even knowing how stupid that sounds because he signs everything already.

Funny story, I only have one of the 54 PS-145's (Pat Neshek Cards) and KO was trying to buy it and I wouldn't sell. I told him to go to Pat himself since he collects and KO knows him. Seems Pat owns one and in now holding it over his head that he has SOMETHING the big kahuna collector KO doesn't.

I think he picked one up later one so no big demand for it now...but I am still looking for an extra one to get autographed.

And actually Neshak and Now are on real good terms and I heard he may even be partnering with Now like Syndergaard did last year.

TwinsJake · 03-19-2018, 03:16 PM

I definitely screwed up by not doing the postseason team sets. I went on vacation that week and skipped them because I didn’t want to do the work or spend the extra money. Didn’t even buy a Twins set. Stupid stupid stupid. Neshek would be great for Now.

Thanks for the Baez Jake!

New updates on RTOD sets look great!

Been watching eBay to see if you snagged one, looks you didn't have to go that route! Congrats!

There is one ending tonight that I was watching and planning to go big on to get. However someone listed one as a BIN last week and I bought it right away. Very pumped!

I really like the Bryant and Contreras. Guess I’m going to buy 5 Cubs auto sets now!

Major congrats. That’s a beautiful card.

That game was amazing. Can still recall watching it live at my grandparents’ house when I was like 13. Willie MCGee hits for the cycle in national telecast during a pennant race and MVP chase and no one gives a crap bc of what Ryno did that day.

I still can’t believe that team failed to get to the WS that year. Had they done so, I doubt they could have beaten the juggernaught Tigers (how did that team just win one WS?), but they were better than the effing Padres. Damn you for eternity Steve Garvey (and Leon Durham’s glove)!

Oh yeah, once again, great card.

kpete42 · 03-19-2018, 04:20 PM

Can a Plat member ask Jeeves if there is any amount of Yankees auto sets that you can buy to guarantee a Judge? 6? 10? 15? Or just the luck of the draw?

I haven’t seen the Contreras yet. Can’t wait.

Edit: Okay, now I’ve seen Willy. Really like that as well. Still like Javy and Happ a little more, but sure ain’t gonna quibble with that Contreras at all.

If Contreras stays healthy this year, I think a whole lot broader audience is gonna get a big dose of him this year. Probably aren’t going to be able to buy his graded 2016 Heritage RCs dirt cheap for much longer.

Hey, speaking of Contreras, I really need one of you to sell me a Contreras blue Auto from the WS Champs Set. Along with the Game 7 Ross, that is the Auto I don’t yet have that I most desperately want. If anyone has a BGS 9.5 they’d sell, I will pay very fairly.

I’m big on Contreras too and think he’s going to have a monster year. He was tearing it up last year when he got hurt. I was at Wrigley when he made his mlb debut on 6/17/16 (although it was very brief) and he’s been one of my favorites since.

I know a few peeps ordered 10 ... I doubt that there is a guarantee.

Jake, you going big on the Twins RTOD auto sets? I really like that Buxton card and think I’m going to pull the trigger on 4 of them to guarantee one.

1989 was the first baseball season that I can remember as I was 7 and the Cubs had that great run to the division title. I was crushed when they lost to the Giants in the NLCS. I can remember coming home from school and the games being on in the afternoon. Such a cool time!

I’m actually not buying any auto sets. I don’t kid myself. Twins are worthless. I’m buying 20 regular sets but that’s only because of presales and friends from Twins games buying. I do want a Buxton but I can get probably get one for cheap enough if I wait. Id like Dozier but I don’t really care. I think he wants out of Minnesota and I’d rather not bother if I don’t think he’ll be here. Felix Jorge will obviously be the most common and might not even play for the team this season other than some more coffee. Not much room for Granite either and I don’t think much of him anyway. Look at me sandbagging the Twins so I can own a large chunk of their print run again haha. But yeah I want them but not that much.
