Did not see this one posted yet:

2008 first-round pick Justin Smoak earned a promotion to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Let the countdown to the majors begin. The 22-year-old tore up Double-A Frisco, batting .328 with six homers and 29 RBI in 50 games. He was getting on base at a .449 clip.

Won't be long before he is tearing it up for Texas!!!

Boom! Really wish it had a better patch.

Awesome! How have the prices of his Razor cards reacted, out of curiosity? Haven't followed them. I have a bunch of USAs, hopefully they see a nice little spike.

Good, get him up to Texas soon and send awful Chris Davis down to the minor leagues.

I still cringe - that coulda been mine! Stupid willpower...

Yeah, I was very surprised when I got it for the price I did. Green's /2 sold for higher than I paid for mine.

Wait, I thought you pulled that from a set you bought at Shriners? Then I'm thinking of something else.

No, I bought those sets from you, but bought this as a single for 150. I got a Smoak Hosmer dual black auto /295 or something I think as the best card from those sets I got from you.

About time to unload the stash!

With numbers like these, the Astros should have drafted him.

Sell now? Or wait until he tears up AAA for a little while?

has his prices really increased? I say sell now if so.

He's going to the Majors this year. Sell when he gets called up.

Not sure why they have different color ink, but it's the only red ink auto I have seen.

I can't wait for his call-up.

Anyone selling those blue Smoaks now are likely to take a 50% loss.
