I understand prospecting is perhaps the biggest thing driving the hobby these days but did I miss Wander Franco's HOF induction somewhere??? How is anyone thinking they can make money if they buy his **** on the secondary market??? Blows my mind...

These buyers can profit in no time. All they need is for him for to get hot for a month or two

I suppose that's what I don't get. For the money of a Franco color auto I could buy a Ted Williams rookie. Anyone want to bet who has the better career? We are always looking for the next best hot thing.

I don’t disagree it’s nuts. I really don’t get it but I’ve made plenty of money on prospects so I keep buying them. Only small time stuff though

For me it's not he money, I collect to collect, that's what makes it hard for me to comprehend, I feel like an old man shaking his fist at teenagers sometimes

It’s less a hobby and more of a business. Prospecting is mostly playing hot potato hoping you’re not the one left at the end

Also, you can blame Mike Trout. Everyone has FOMO as ThoseBackPages says

Guess I have to go read the prospect handbook. I've never heard of Wander Franco until this thread and I guess he must be some kind of big deal for his cards to sell like that.

I'm just amazed about the player I'm looking at - didn't know he had a card in 2019 bowman until my ebay search email for his cards blew up a day or two ago.

Well u know how things go. He’s 17 and was amazing in rookie ball. Gorman was tremendous after being drafted and his prices are nuts. I don’t understand spending 15K on an 18 year old’s SuperFractor but to some people 15K isn’t that much

yeah, I know how it can go. Amazing in rookie ball, never makes it past AA or AAA due to injuries or difficulties handling better competition. ;)
