Will Jaimet of Heroes of Sport is being accused of trimming cards
I've become numb to all of this, and it's why I don't collect graded cards or high-end cards. This garbage has been going on since the '80s, and nothing changes, no matter how outraged collectors get. There's always a new scammer to take the busted guy's place. Always. I was just looking... -
How long until Phillies fans start booing Bryce Harper?
Bob Franklin, please respectfully keep politics off this board. We have a couple of off-topic boards if you'd like to discuss your political beliefs and complaints. Thanks. Oh, and you're getting trolled hard with Fresh Prince theme song references instead of serious answers. -
Fernando Tatis 2 grand slams anniversary
Yeah, he had that one great season in '99. Probably borrowed some steroids from teammate McGwire that year. -
How long until Phillies fans start booing Bryce Harper?
Wrong team. That’s about Nats fans booing Harper, not the Phillies fans. -
How long until Phillies fans start booing Bryce Harper?
Sure the season is only a month old, but Phillies fans are notoriously brutal. The Phillies are in first, but barely above .500 and Harper’s been struggling. After a hot 3-game start in March, Harper’s hitting .253 with 3 homers in April. And he’s on pace for a Major League record 230... -
The 2019 MLB Prospect Callups Thread
You actually remember the exact date of announcements of the call ups of big prospects? -
How is Craig Kimbrel still not signed to a team? (Update 6/5: Signed with Cubs)
It's been a month. He backed down from his demands in late March as the season was about to begin. -
How is Craig Kimbrel still not signed to a team? (Update 6/5: Signed with Cubs)
He came down from those demands a while ago. That's why his unsigning remains so strange a month into the season. Ken Rosenthal says Kimbrel is looking for a deal similar to what Wade Davis and Zach Britton got this offseason. Davis got three years and $52 million from the Rockies. Britton got... -
April pick up thread
Those 3D Topps cards are incredibly cool and unique these days. Reminds me of some of the 90s 3D cards like UC3. Go for the set. -
How is Craig Kimbrel still not signed to a team? (Update 6/5: Signed with Cubs)
I don't get it. Kimbrel is one of the greatest relief pitchers in history. He's only 30 years old and healthy. In only 8 seasons, he already has 333 saves, a 1.91 era, has an incredible 868 Ks in 532 innings and 5 top-10 Cy Young finishes, which is crazy for a reliever, especially in just 8... -

For his career, Ernie Banks made...
There were no billion-dollar TV contracts back then, nor were there massive marketing and team endorsement deals from corporations. That's why teams are able to pay today's players so much. It's all relative to advanced technology and our multi-media society. Why should owner's keep all the... -
Best Bobbing Head ever? 1989 UD Griffey
It looks nothing like him or his face from the 1989 UD rookie which it’s supposed to be copying. And Griffey’s bat was straight on the card, not slanted to the side. Maybe that’s an ‘89 Henry Cotto error picture variation. -
This Mike Trout Platinum Card is very very fake
For a modern card novice like me, what makes the card an obvious counterfeit? -
Happy 2019 MLB season!
And Ichiro is starting! The offenses are putting up some fireworks for the Japanese fans. 5-4 in the 3rd inning. -
CLEANING OUT DESK CONTEST Winner Randy Shields
Wait, so not only are you a trained professional autograph authenticator, but you’re also a seasoned lightbulb enthusiast? That is compelling and rich. You’re kind of a big deal. -
Hey Jeter Auto Experts
Be8el0ve has a gazillion Jeter autographs so maybe he can help. He's not a fully trained professional like CardCop, but he knows Jeter autographs. -
Favorite Fleer base set? 1981-1995
Oh man, if the base set was in that All-Star insert design it would have been incredible. I don't know why base sets have to be so safe and plain. But then when Fleer decided to go crazy with its 1995 set, the result was a hideous mess. But Fleer often had the best-looking insert cards. -
Favorite Fleer base set? 1981-1995
When 1991 Fleer came out, it was the only modern card with a design and type that I could accurately recreate on my word processor because it has straight lines. So I made a lot of custom 1991 Fleer cards by making the border lines and names and the cutting pictures out of magazines. I made... -
Favorite Fleer base set? 1981-1995
I loved Fleer, and the ‘82 through ‘90 sets are very nostalgic for me. My favorite design is the ‘87 set with the beautiful blue borders fading into white and the pictures that rise above the border. I still love looking at that gorgeous set in the binder and have fond memories of building it... -
CLEANING OUT DESK CONTEST Winner Randy Shields
Congrats randy! That's crazy it took the final few numbers and 110 posts to guess a number under 100. What's the Pujols card in the scan that looks like his rookie? -
80s 90s era picture trivia
I would have guessed the '89 Fleer Randy Johnson too. I never noticed there was a Marlboro sign behind McGwire on his USA card. I'm surprised Topps didn't airbrush that out.
