    Jeter Topps RC makes history

    There's another one: Tony Kubek (1957 Topps) is in the HOF as a broadcaster. And since Cox was honored as a manager, Jeter's the only one to get in as a player. That's just mind-blowing, since Topps has been around for almost 70 years.

    Son of Ex-Mariners Coach Accuses Mike Trout of Using HGH Through MLB Loophole

    The media is not calling him an ex-Mariners coach to undermine him. It's because it's relevant to the tweet and story. The son's tweet says his dad, when he was a coach, and the Mariners, knew about the Astros cheating, and knew of players like Trout using alleged loopholes to take PEDs...

    Shoeless Joe Jackson is now eligible for the Hall of Fame. Pete Rose will be after he dies.

    Update: Hall of Fame says they will NOT allow Shoeless Joe and Rose on the ballot. ESPN -- Any player on Major League Baseball's ineligible list will not be considered for induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame, even after the banned individual's death, a hall spokesman told ESPN on Saturday...

    Shoeless Joe Jackson is now eligible for the Hall of Fame. Pete Rose will be after he dies.

    A new rule means Shoeless Joe Jackson could be on the Hall of Fame's Early Baseball ballot this December. Pete Rose would also be eligible after he dies. ESPN -- Major League Baseball has shifted its view of deceased players who have been banned for life, a group that includes "Shoeless" Joe...

    MLB suspends Astros GM Jeff Luhnow, manager A.J. Hinch for a year

    Red Sox manager Alex Cora will get worse. He was the bench coach of that Astros team too, then brought the cheating to Boston. ESPN says Cora is identified throughout MLB's report as "the ringleader" of the cheating for both teams.

    Get With The Times

    Actually, the number of kids playing video games and game sales are higher than ever. The gaming videos are so popular because kids can't get enough of the games they love, like Minecraft and Overwatch, for tips, ideas and entertainment, not because they're not playing games anymore. The...

    What would you do?

    The "indentation" is the chrome etching. The picture is the original eBay pic of the card in the case, not how he received it. MrMet says in the original post that the card came in a penny sleeve and toploader.

    ‘Keep the Change’ 1990 Topps Customs

    Topps actually made a set of cards for Home Alone 2 using a similar design to '90 Topps, but never made a set of the original film.

    Ted Simmons and Marvin Miller have been elected to the Hall Of Fame

    Ted Simmons got only 3.7 (3-point-7) percent of the vote his first year of eligibility and was removed from the ballot. Now he's suddenly a Hall of Famer? Even Harold Baines was on the ballot for 5 years.

    Can someone please tell EBAY this 1990 Fleer Jose Uribe fad is stupid.

    Why are you telling us to tell eBay when you can do it yourself? And eBay is not trying to "prove" anything. It's just part of their algorithm based on search results.

    10 Hall of Fame Modern Era candidates announced.

    With Harold Baines being elected last election, it's impossible to predict who will make it this time. Each of the ten candidates is more deserving than Baines in my opinion. ESPN -- A 10-man ballot of candidates who will be eligible for selection to the Baseball Hall of Fame this year though...

    Major League Baseball proposes eliminating 40 Minor League teams and moving others.

    Hopefully your local Minor League team is not shut down or moved. It actually sounds like Minor League players would benefit from this, including higher salaries and less travel. But I feel bad for small town local fans of the teams that are eliminated or move. ESPN -- Major League Baseball...

    What brings you here day after day?

    It's too bad that most people just lurk on this site. Not just with discussions, but polls too. After four full days and about 350 views, only 28 people have voted in the poll, and even fewer have written a response. I understand some people can't see polls on their phone for some reason, but...
