Default Wander Franco - time to throw my cards into the trash?

It's looking pretty dark for him ever playing in the MLB again. Is there anyone who will ever want to buy his cards again, or are they now just campfire kindling?

Julio Urias smacked around his girlfriend and probably won’t sniff MLB again.
Trevor Bauer had kinky sex and probably won’t sniff MLB again.
wander is accused of being a child molestor! dude is definitely not coming back to MLB.

So, personally, I don’t see his cards demand ever exceeding supply. Fire sale prices at best.

.99 7-day auctions and just get what you can get. There's still some people buying out there for some reason.

Remember Felipe Rivero? Obviously not the same value but that's where his cards are at.

If he Epstein's himself, he may get into Aaron Hernandez territory.

Team and set collectors I would imagine are the main buyers from here on. Maybe some very weird type collectors?

That being said, I don’t buy anything but base for the former Pirates closer. I will sometimes pick up rare cards busted prospects but no interest in numbered cards of Felipe.

It's just set builders at this point. I hope.

If you have any Wander hair cards I've heard of a guy around here who collects them.

That's rich. I'm a flipper and I haven't bought a Wander yet. Maybe I should get on it?
