Now is a great time to buy...

Messier2 · Aug 31, 2010

IMO...Donavan Tate autos. One of his chrome autos ended recently for under $10 and most have been ending under $20. Does anyone else think he's a great buy now (with all his injury-history concernt) at current prices? I totally think so...

Who else are your "great time to buy" guys?

I think Tate is always going to be a guy that shows flashes, but always gets hurt. Never will reach his full potential..

If you think Roberto Alomar will get enough votes come January to make the Hall, it might be a good time to buy.

But at chrome autos sitting at $8-$20...it's certainly worth the risk to grab a few...

He's a project, and at almost 20 in rookie ball (granted, it's his first season and coming of an injury), he's not lighting the world on fire.

Let's see what next season brings in Low-A ball before I would consider buying in, even now with almost no risk at $10/under.

Translation: Lyonel is now done buying Tate autos and is looking to generate some hype so he can flip them

I wish...prices are so low that I'm continuing to buy... ::facepalm::

Not selling any Tate until he seems some real game action next season...that is why it's a great time to buy now at current prices.

If what we have seen the last two weeks is the real Rick Porcello and Jay Bruce now is the time to buy before prices go back up

too injury prone

Wait till January...in the dead of Winter when he's forgotten and all the hype is on Harper. Best time to buy if you're a believer!

I'd say now is the time to sell Tate if you can get anything still.

Long-term most anything vintage in decent condition is probably best, short-term is always a crap shoot but anyone in the news for good reasons may be best.

Rather buy a nice looking Rickey Henderson RC at 28 rather than blow it on a guy who might not make it to AA.

The same thing was said about Mike Moustakas. (And countless prospects as a matter of fact)

Not really, they though he was a guy who wasn't going to reach his ceiling but I never heard anything about injuries.
