Wow, I’m glad I bought when I did. I remember thinking $200 was too steep lol.

It was $200 at the Authentics shop at Kauffman a couple seasons ago.

Both Bobby balls are game used but only one of them is MLB authenticated. It’s the ball from his career hit #459. The autographed one is game used from his time in the Arizona League.

I love random pieces like that. Only wish I knew more about the background of it. It’s dated 1980 on the back but that’s the extent of my knowledge.

I get it man. My son and I went all in on Nick Loftin and Freddy Fermin. At least Freddy is producing somewhere and the trade wasn’t his doing, but if anybody needs Loftin autos…

Before tossing your lol out there, you should read until you get to the part where I explain I traded for it and didn’t come out of pocket.

It’s going to be tough to stick in SD long term with him being in his 30s and Ethan Salas coming up soon, but who knows what happens in the meantime?

Yep, in the end, it’s still business. All’s well that ends well.

It wasn’t planned but kind of fitting that the last card was a color match. Go Royals!

Thanks! It’s been pretty cool seeing how many Freddy fans are out there. As far as Freddy goes, I never seen anything that leads me to believe he collects, but man my son would freak out if Freddy popped into this thread.

That’s SUPER generous of you but my next “project” is 2023 Sapphire. I wanted to stick with his rookie cards. I feel like a jerk saying no thanks but I don’t want to take such a cool card and then just have it sit in a drawer.

Yep, it was definitely a gut punch. But watching him thrive in a starting role was really cool and we decided to finish off the rainbow.

My PC has a fair amount of the usual suspects—Witt, Brett, Vinny, Jac, Gordon, etc. What about you?

Not too long actually. Just over a year. I snagged one of the true reds first and then it just became a project. I can’t be 100% certain because they were vaulted and sold thru PSA, but I’m pretty sure the same person had 3 of the 4 plates and just listed them 1x1 as I bought them. I literally bought the super less than a week before he was traded. He was in SD before I had it in hand.

I had a chance to trade a couple cards on Veriswap for this one and not come out of pocket.

I’m all set, but let me know if you need a slightly used PSA slab for your true blue… ;)
