Jose Abreu

gogosox40 · Apr 26, 2014

I am suprised there has not been more talk about Jose Abreu.

Last night he hit home run number 8 & 9 which 9 being a walk off grand slam and
setting an all-time rookie record for most homers before the beginning of May.

This guy is more than I expected when the Sox signed him this past off season.
This guy is a beast and a professional hitter.

P.S. Dayan Viciedo is also tearing it up and hopefully has figured things out.

I too am surprised there is not a lot of hype about him.

Dude hit a grand salemi yesterday to end the game

You'll see just how much hype there is when his Chrome autos start hitting the Bay anyday now. Trust me, there's plenty.

My thinking exactly! A base chrome of his is at $15 with 4 hours to go....his autos are going to go nutty

That's what I was thinking but just wanted to start talking about him now since so far this year he has had 3 multi home run games.

What do you think the base autos will be starting out at? $100 or more?

I'm looking forward to selling base lots of him, Bryant and Tanaka.

is he human?

I guess I should pull out the Leaf auto I have of his numbered to /25..

Austin · Apr 26, 2014

I just checked eBay to see what Abreu's Leaf autographs are going for, and dozens of "Rize" brand autographed cards came up under the Leaf search.
Ugh.

It's probably because he plays for the white sox. Not exactly a team on the top of my list whose fans... errr prospectors, seem to overhype their team's top prospects here on FCB.

corockies · Apr 27, 2014

I'm sure a lot of the non-hype is due to his batting average hovering around the Mendoza line the first 3 weeks of the season. People were wary that Abreu is another Adam Dunn or Mark Reynolds type player.

There is only like 5 sox fans on this site and I believe any of us don't post regularly.
I generally don't like hype threads since you know the op is usually teying to sell his or her stash of said player but I am just excited he is on my favorite team and excited to see how he adjusts to teams and pitchers the second time around.

So ill start the Abreu and Viciedo hype train

Im a sox fan. They are my AL team because of the Birmingham barons.

Rize, Panini, and Leaf all have handicaps in the marketplace. His Topps Tribute WBC cards do fine. His only actual MLB cards so far are from GQ, not exactly the go-to brand for RCs. Once Bowman brands hit, they'll be as hot as any.
