Five Years From Now...The 2008 Redemption To Have?

justwar · Jan 30, 2009

Assuming they get produced, who do you think will be the one to have. Will Villalona's power potential be realized? Will Flores be the next Miggy? Montero become a fixture for the Yanks? Inoa dominating the majors at 22? Or.... the opposite.

I'm trying to grab a 9.5 of each (obviously hoping/waiting for Flores and Montero) just in case. But, I'm going with Flores as the one of these four with the most hobby noise 5 years from now.

What say you?

Oh, please don't say Rene Tosoni

I like Tossoni.

But i like Montero.

Not to high on Villalona or Inoa.

i really hope the Flores gets produced.

Its pretty obvious that most will say either of the new york guys. First because they're both pretty sweet and secondly because of the market.

Me too, im waiting on 3 base. Staying positive but... its topps. I feel better about the montero simply because of that printing plate that was on ebay a while back

was that plate on-plate? or sticker?

Montero has stickers in the 2008 BS set, whereas Flores was yanked from BS

Well, if you have the redemptions in five years they will be worthless as they will be expired. However, if you have the cards in hand, I think that Flores will be the one to have.

If it's ones that are likely to be produced - it would be Angel Villalona - otherwise, I'd pick Flores.

You want the flowers to get produced. Flores mean flowers en espanol.

I need to get myself more Flores.

Ironically enough, yes it would have been nice to have a Tyler Flowers (catching prospect, white sox)
MLB Rookie Card as well

Villalona is the only one who has a chance to hit 50+ HR

That's not necessarily true. Montero has a small chance as well. But, there's a 95% chance that neither ever hits 50 home runs.

True, I would put more money on Villalona then Montero. Montero is a stud though.
