Worst Top 10 Prospects You've Bought Cards Of...?

[EricInCT]

How is Austin Jackson in there? Seems like you should have been able to sell at some point last year. Let alone probably this year as well.

the blue frazier could have fetch 100+ last year as well.

JR House...ugh

2000 taught me a valuable lesson: Vladimir Guererro's relatives aren't as good as Vladimir Guererro.

Sorry for being off-topic here, but I worked for the Altoona Curve in 2003, and the three best players I saw play in person at Blair County Ballpark, BY FAR, were Grady Sizemore, Joe Mauer, and JR House. I'm not talking about potential, I'm talking about how much better they looked than anyone else on the field. Still not sure what the heck happened to House. I thought for sure he was the real deal.

He left baseball in 2005 or so and played 3rd string QB for WVU for a season...then back to baseball.

I think he's still in some team's affiliated system or Indy ball somewhere.

My question is, "Where are the silent Alex Rios, Corey Patterson and Brandon Wood purchasers?"

Is Alex Rios the same as Alexis Rios? The guy with the 2002 Elite rc? I bought one for $90, once

Brandon Wood? You mean the guy with the 40-something home run season that convinced me to sell the savings bonds (some prematurely) that my grandmother had purchased for me? To buy a PSA 9 for $125, a PSA 9 refractor for $175, and a PSA 9 X for $230?

Happy, Mike?

UGH

End thread. Wow that sucks.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. lol

BAH

Worst move i've made. Anyone care to take a stab at what this would bring in auction today?

Probably $40.Why did it get hit with a 9 autograph?Looks clean to me.Anyway, at least you didn't get stuck with 2 of them like I did.

I didn't get why Young was on there either.He had a really good year last year if I'm not mistaken.

What about Milledge?No Mets fans on here spent a boatload on him?Yeah, right...

My biggest mistake was Wade Townsend, those 3 pitchers were supposed to be superstars, then surgery after surgery. It hurts just thinking about it.

 

[brianga26]

I actually bought up on Josh Hamilton 99 Topps Traded for .10 a piece.. Too bad I didn't think to buy his autograph at $20..
As for the GREAT TOE Nash..
Who remembers that story?

I think I'll just snap some pictures in my basement and put them on here. I don't know that my stashes of failed prospects can be reviled by many.

At least we share some of the same names.
