    The #MilbDaily Thread - 5/23

    Hes only doing this because e knows that I sold off most of my stash for a quarter of what I paid.

    Apparently, I am not the only one....

    On the few occasions when I list high end semi PC 1/1s, I tend to overprice them. Some people have unique tastes, deep wallets and no impulse control.

    The #MilbDaily Thread - 5/22

    Interesting story, too. Played independent ball from the ages of 21-27 out of college before getting a chance with the Twins last year. He took Odorizzi deep twice in a game, and absolutely mashed a home run against Archer at a game I was at a week or so ago. Very nice guy, has good...

    Kevin Gausman Called Up to the Orioles

    many many HOFers pitched in the bigs at a young age. I don't think that youths of a byegone generation had more intestinal fortitude than do kids of this age. let him pitch and we'll see what he's made of.

    He was at vandy. He was also known for walking people, glad to see thats changed as well.

    Of course Norris stops sucking after I start selling of his stuff for 25% of what I paid for it.

    BA's Top 100 Draft Prospects List With Scouting Reports

    i don't know of any other top guys that've had injuries. I had thought maybe the write-ups would say so, or that you would know. I mean, Top 250 means what, Top 5.5 rounds? I seriously doubt even if he wanted to sign, he'd be picked that high, knowing that his characteristic that got him...

    BA's Top 100 Draft Prospects List With Scouting Reports

    Are there any other injured players (TJ injuries, specifically) on the Top 250? Plus, he was a tough sign to begin with, and probably won't change his number despite the injury (don't know if this is top 250 draft players, or just on the basis of pure ability).

    The #MilbDailyThread - 5/16

    I saw Wil Myers in person tonight. He is not looking very good in non-PCL ball. Tonight he walked, grounded out, and hit into a 1-out bases loaded DP and a 1 out two men on DP. He also looked completely disinterested in fielding his position. Perhaps I just caught him on a bad day. Archer...

    Paying for autographs

    I prefer IP autographs. Once I get a guy in person, I tend not to seek out his cards as much. I will say, the difference for me between paying for them at shows (which I've not done in about 12 years) and getting them at games, is that getting them at games just feels more organic to me...

    The #MilbDailyThread - 5/13

    I'd love to see him above low A ball. He's 22, he kinda should be that good against that level.

    Anyone else pull any NNOF from Bowman 2013?

    Hmm, well the Ryu NNOF sold for north of $100. So perhaps I'll start the bidding there. Ha.

    Anyone else pull any NNOF from Bowman 2013?

    Pulled this from a blaster. Doesn't seem to be an ink issue and there isn't even any recess where the letters would be. It's Colby Rasmus. Did I get a super rare 1/1tastic errorfractor? Because I will list it as such. Shamelessly. But no, seriously, am I the only one?

    2013 Bowman... What's your take so far?

    There are two guys who I am targeting as low-end (read, $5ish for a base auto) prospects. Other than that, I bought three blasters out of general boredom/weakness. that might be it.

    Official Thread For Notable HS/College Performances

    On 133 pitches, no less. His coach is riding him hard. Beede won, now 13-0, not that wins matter for pro prospects. Had a pretty meh game, though.

    The #MilbDailyThread - 5/11 (Pitcher's Paradise)

    Sonny Gray: 6ip, 0R, 8K, 5bb, 3H. In line for the W. in front of the hometown crowd in Nashville.

    The #MilbDailyThread - 5/11 (Pitcher's Paradise)

    Might be Sonny's last start in the Minors (lots of rumors going around that Jarrod Parker might needs some DL time). It is in Nashville, where he has had some success, a couple years ago...

    Going prices

    I buy scrub low #d cards (or, rather, pro scrubs. They weren't scrubs in college). I tend to overpay because they come up for sale/auction so infrequently. I mean, two of the Supers I'm most in search of are guys that have retired from baseball, one with never getting above short season A...

    Topps is tweeting some Museum Collection Autos.... love the borders

    Still like the 2011 the most. Have two Mike Minors #1 and #1 0. Still wish they had actually made the Pedro Alvarez one.

    Jim Callis' 2013 Mock Draft 1.0

    My initial thought is that the folks that bought in at such high a price on Meadows will be tiiiiiiiiicked off if he goes 12 to the M's. I (biased) think Ziomek sneaks into round 1. Odd to see Boldt fall out, but he is injured and a northern player whose season had barely started. Also I...

    1 Month away from the Draft---who are you prospecting?

    I'm pretty happy to see Unroe get some attention. He's gone from a 5-7 rounder to some rumors of late first/comp. Switch hitting SS with power. Now, since you guys might know better than me, how to sell them? Last year I tried to end them the night of the first round, which was stupid in...

    2013 Bowman Baseball Big Hit Tracker Thread (5/25 Update)

    The Sonny Gray Mini Superfractor was pulled and is listed. The BIN is higher than what I paid for the 2011 non auto super. Good luck to the seller, though. It is a nice card.

    2013 Bowman Baseball Big Hit Tracker Thread (5/25 Update)

    Right, I don't mean to say that there aren't some guys that could produce value with good luck. But the three I was targeting are still getting $20+ for a base auto. For someone rather small time like me, that prices me out, especially since they are highly volatile young hitters.

    1 Month away from the Draft---who are you prospecting?

    I figure it is close enough to draft time that there isn't much reason for secrecy about who we've bought into to sell after they get drafted. So, my big buy in got injured, which is fine because he'll just become a PC Vandy Guy (Jordan Sheffield) Other than that: DJ Peterson red ink auto /25...
