    Back when 400, not 500 or 600, HRs meant a lot more

    I still believe that those numbers mean something, at least to me anyways. The way I look at it that list includes very few players who played in the 30' and 40's, so the in the 30 years from 1950 to 1980 most of the top 20 list was populated. In the 30 years since 1980 the list has doubled, or...

    Players 30 or under who were destined to be HOFers, but faded away in their early 30s

    +1 :( I still think he has a chance to get in on a Veteran Committees vote though.

    Yeah, I just lost out on what would have been my 10th. I'm convinced there are more than 15 for each player. As pictured I've collected 9 of the Thompson cards, lost out on at least 4 or 5 more, but some of those might now be included in my 9 as they come up for sale every so often by different...

    Anyone win the Robby Thompson? I lost out on the card, my three kids were sick all night long and I completely spaced on increasing my bid. If someone here did win the aution I'm willing to double the price to obtain the card. Thanks. Also did anyone win their player from the seller, I noticed...

    2012 MLB All-Star Game Thread

    Nice, you and me might be the only two on these boards who get the reference. Atlee was never the same after that game. Great showing for the Giants tonight!

    They all seem machine cut, some rougher than others from handling by previous owners. Most have some level of wear on the corners.

    As I promised earlier here are the scans of the nine Thompson's I own. I apologize for the large scans. The placement of the Aqueous Test printing is the same for all nine, and the one listed on Ebay looks to be the same. Also, each of the cards show the same cut pattern, hand cut or not, as the...

    I don't have a chance right now, but later tonight I'll post the Thompson's I have for comparison.

    I have a couple copies of Robby Thompson's Aqueous card and the card he has listed looks legit.

    Hottest Team in Baseball?

    It's tough to argue with how well the Giants are pitching right now, heck even the vaunted Phillies staff didn't thow four consecutive shutouts. I love to see some All-Star buzz for Vogelsong too, he's had an amazing year.

    So, MLB is pruposely shunning Ryan Braun, right?

    Why are people so down on Melky? He leads the majors in hits, second in BA, 3rd in runs scored, tied for 1st in triples and 7th in OBP. All that on a Giants team that ranks 23rd in runs scored.

    Who has the best signature?

    I'm biased but I enjoy Will Clark and Robby Thompson's signatures........ I also think Bannister has a nice one: And not baseball, but Richard Petty:

    Will Clark collectors are insane... WOW!

    This is one of my favorite Clark cards, love how these cards look

    Matt Cain

    Congrats Mr. Cain!!!
  17. ronfromfresno

    R.A. Dickey for Cy Young?

    True, but Cain leads the MLB with a 0.85 WHIP and at the end of the year a PERFECT GAME will give Cain a huge edge in the voting.

    What is the ONE card in your collection you will NEVER, EVER part with?

    This one for me, it was my Dad's when he was a kid, he gave it to me at a show in the early '90's so I could have Mays sign it.

    109 Bowman Blue Wave Redemption Packs - Screwed

    Did Topps state the odds somewhere or were the odd determined by math? I ask because this could be a case like the 2006 UD FX Blue card where the stated print run was something like 1 in 6 packs but in reality it was 1 in 30 or more packs. So if the odds were stated incorrectly or never stated...

    THE GREATEST PLAYERS OF ALL-TIME TEAM - by position - Centerfield

    I see it differently, but that's the greatness of the baseball. Wagner Hornsby Mays Ruth Williams Gehrig Schmidt Bench Pitcher Mays had too much speed to be put behind Ruth, Williams and Gehrig....they'd clog the bases eliminating Mays speed, plus Mays had the same or better power potential...

    THE GREATEST PLAYERS OF ALL-TIME TEAM - by position - Centerfield

    Mays as a 6th place hitter??? The man has the fourth most HR in the history of the game, he lost a year to the war, played in a ball park that was unkind to right handed hitters and he faced Gibson, Koufax, Spahn and Drysdale on a regular basis. Plus he stole 338 bases from the three hole in the...

    Will Clark Collectors Thread

    I would agree Nolan, both of those sigs look off.....The Clark has some of the right hallmarks, like the detacted L and the star looking K. But the rest looks too spread out, the W and C are too small, I can't recall Clark including a loop in the C, the A isn't typically closed at the top and...
