will nelson cruz ever see a spike in his cards

[colts1888]

aside from his 05 auto none of his cards sell for more than 5.00 will he ever see a big jump in his chrome rookies or non rookie autos?

If he goes on a home run binge or hot streak during the year.

If he gets back to the A.S. Home Run Derby and actually wins it.

If he helps the Rangers get to the postseason or gets traded to a team that does.

The way I see it, he got a late start, so much of what he'll do will be under the radar.

He's got a ton of power, but perhaps not much else. He'd excite collectors more if he was five years younger.

His cards get overlooked because he's older than most second/third year players. In my opinion, he's the best outfielder they've got and I think he's a very good player. That said, I think his cards are priced pretty reasonably.

His blue Refractor gets $30-$35, gold ref gets $70-$85 or so. Not bad considering his rc auto is a year earlier.

They already did spike. When they came out he was just another dude.

I did fairly well with the Cruz stash I had. All sold for pretty decent money during the hot streak he had last season.

What card is this? I was never aware of an earlier crd, and checking eBay can't come up with anything.

To me Cruz's stuff has plenty of room to move up if he can replicate last season (and possibly improve a little.) He started old, but $1 or so for a Chrome RC leaves plenty of room for increase based on last seasons performance.
