Couple of recent pickups from Fandruw25:
My scanner doesn't scan slabs well, so it doesn't do this card any justice at all. Looks so awesome in person:
Only Online winner I have ever seen. The same one that surfaced on ebay recently.
Will depend on what he does next season. If he comes close to what he did last year, he will likely get 20 million at 7 years. And I think whoever pays it will be making a huge mistake. If he has a season closer to his 10 HR and 70 steal season, I think his price tag goes down considerably...
I can't view/access photobucket from work. But I have a scan of the front and back in my photobucket of the luminescent and illuminator. If I recall correctly, I believe the one that you can see completely through is the illuminator. I can post the scan in the morning if you still need a...
First of all, no way he signs for only 5 years. Boras will be pushing for 7-8 years. He will also be saying that Ellsbury can put up better numbers than Crawford who got 20 million a year. I like Ells as a Sox fan, but unless he ditches Boras or doesn't take his advice, I can't see him...
So what would it be based on, his inability to stay healthy from year to year? No way he signs an extension, Boras wants him to go free agency. As a Sox fan, I don't want him for the money he is going to want. I don't personally believe he is a 32 HR guy and if you think he contract is not...
Looks like you may get a 2nd chance on the Larkin. Not sure how this makes me feel knowing he has multiples. Not sure I would say fake, but definately appears to be backdoored somehow.
BIN listings will not be affected in my opinion. Sellers can just alter the auction to a ridiculous price that NOONE will hit and sell the item offline. Most other auctions that are ended tend to have low bids as I would assume they are ended within a day or 2 of being listed. Also, couldn't...
I guess you missed my point, I wasn't arguing that he hasn't declined in skills and stats since the age of 30. As I said, he belongs in this thread. I was just simply saying that if he is signing to be a bench player and giving the teams what they want from him, it surely can't be considered...
Andruw Jones definately belongs in this conversation, but I would disagree he has had 5 awful years since the age of 30. Yes his numbers are no where near what they were earlier in his career, but he has signed on the last 2-3 years as a bench player and has provided them with exactly what they...
I am happy for him, but we spent the last page or so patting him on the back for a nice steal and offering suggestions on how to sell it. I could have done without one last pat on his own back that ended with ? Did you really need us to pat you on the back one more time? You made a hell of a...
Wish there was a 90's insert with Cal Ripken and Andruw Jones together. Sadly there is not, so this will have to do to as a tribute to Andruw tying Cal on the all time HR list last night:
I do have this however, please don't stone me!!
Anyone who has read a number of PadresFan86's posts had to realize this is what kind of person he is. Can't say it surprises me at all. Class act he is!
