Since I got back into collecting in 2008 there has been that one player everyone seems to chase and card prices go up who is your pick for 2013?
The big three I think will be either Myers, Profar or Machado.

Example
2008 - Evan Longoria
2009 - Jason Heyward
2010 - Stephen Strasburg
2011 - Bryce Harper
2012 - Mike Trout
2013 - ?
2014 - ?

Hoping the 2014 star is Rendon!! I wouldn't mind making a killing on some of my dupes, although it'd make adding new ones cost-prohibitive

Sadly the next star it seems has to be an American, as that's what the media likes

Personally, I think Slade Heathcott is going to make a big splash before he fizzles into obscurity.

Here's hoping :)

2010 Slade Heathcott Chrome Autos
Reg Auto – x11
Ref Auto /500 – x4
Ref Auto /500 BGS 9.5w/10 auto x2
Blue Auto /150 BGS9.5 w/10 auto x2
Gold Auto /50 BGS9.5w/10 auto
Gold Auto /50 PSA 10
2010 Elite Extra Auto/754 – x6
2010 Elite Extra Auto/754 BGS 9.5 w/10 auto

Jorge Soler or Albert Almora. Big market team and lots of publicity and tools don't hurt either

Matt Moore 2013, wouldn't be shocked if he won a Cy Young next season.

If I had to pick a prospect, it'd be Oscar Taveras.

The way Machado came in for the Orioles last year, I'd guess him in 2013

I think Wil Myers, but I hope Jurickson Profar has a huge rookie year to take the sting out of the Rangers trading away Michael Young.

Are you speaking in terms of sets released in 13? Or simply player breakouts? Because if the issue release year doesn't matter I cant think of a better candidate than Javier Baez. Large market, premium position, huge power.

billy "blaze" hamilton

I like this call. For someone to really break out they need something for the media to hype.

If anything I think it will be Trout round two.

Either one should be on a winning team. Which also helps.
