At least he's connecting - even on his k's he has a lot of foul balls. He'll straighten them out.

I was at the game today and all I heard were kids yelling "there's Yordan Daddy!!!". I can't count how many times I heard kids yelling for him. If he gets hot, look out.

This just in... baseball is a game of failure offensively. It’s the only sport in the world that celebrates success of less than 35-40% of the time.
It’s also a marathon, not a sprint. Lots more baseball to go.

The other thing Yordan has going is he wasn't on the Astros 2017 World Series team. He's also larger than life similar to Aaron Judge.

Snuck that 1991 Bowman Retro Super Auto in there...nice...

I haven’t seen many PSA 10 Topps Chrome Base Autos out there. Lots of colour around

Sstroh84 · 04-11-2021, 12:41 PM

Added this to the Yordan collection. Pop count of ~300 total compared to 12k of the base. Gold has ~175 graded. Feels like there were 4-5k of these printed so that is pretty limited compared to the base.

Close. Print run on these is actually closer to around 3000. Higher pop count with PSA on these because they grade better. Lots of golds get chippy or show white on the corners easier than the base/SP, so they don't get submitted as much.

Pretty card. I know a vocal group derides horizontal cards, but I really like them when they are used to allow for some great photography. Topps SP rookies are great pickups for the long-term I think. Reminds me a bit of the Ripken 2020 SSSP.

Mymoneypls · 04-11-2021, 05:43 PM

I think for PS or if you just like the horizontal card. Go for it. I’love been to the Skydome many times since I was a kid.
I purchased the Bo Bichette Stadium Club RC cause of the view from the Skydome. Something that just went in my PC.

Jose altuve only team member not likely to return, I know people don't like altuve but hope he's recovering fine

Good...I noticed he’s scheduled to play LF tomorrow? Is that true?

callou2131 · 04-19-2021, 06:00 PM

So why do the advanced stats get no love? Cause it's just a card with a number?

Pretty much...just a base card with a serial # & different code. No variation but I suppose its a mirror parallel?

I think he should get some time in left field in at least one game
Yordan hitting in Colorado, he just needs to put the ball in the air somehow with half his strength

His prices have sagged so much for the :checks notes: five games he was out, I am now nearly broke. A PSA 10 sold for over $1000 on April 7 and under $600 on April 20.

I mean the second he's back on the field and getting hits he should be back up to $800 or so for a PSA 10. I think what happened is he looked like he was kinda hot so a lot of his 1st Chrome hit the market all at once. Then they all ended while he was out, crushing the price. There is no change in talent and missing a few games is no biggie.
