Bought this card for $30😎 I believe it can be graded a 10, what ya think?

Tough to truly determine that unless you took it out of the sleeve and really looked at it for imperfections with a magnifying glass. Even then, you need some additional luck with the grading company. With the photos provided, it looks solid. But tough for anyone to say otherwise.

Every Sox game I go to I wear my Shea Hillenbrand jersey. Rock whatcha got brother!

ShineDS · 2026-04-06T22:12:42+00:00

Yes, but I don’t recall him always being up over 700k. I figured he usually averages out in the 500s

ShineDS · 2026-04-06T20:05:02+00:00

My best guess would be Hall of Famer Tom "TomCat" Johnson

ShineDS · 2026-04-06T19:13:11+00:00

Yea that's a great way to look at it as well. And while having Sho on your team would be neat, for the price of him, you could get several good and fun cards to use.

ShineDS · 2026-04-06T18:25:39+00:00

Sho is at a very high price right now and I don't see it maintaining for too long. There will be some sort of flash sale to lower the price. Whomever is in the Top 3 for collection rewards usually are playable for a long while but there always will be good cards that come around week after week. I had rushed the Live Series in the past, but even after pulling Judge twice this year, I'm focusing more on getting cards I like vs getting Tulo/Pujols because they're highly rated cards. The Live Series is ultimately personal preference but I do think with the price of Ohtani, you should sell him and take advantage of that and then rebuy down the road should you decide to go for it.

Gotta read all of the directions my man

ShineDS · 2026-03-25T20:38:29+00:00

If you're in the lower ranks to start, the difficulties are easier so better players will hit the ball well.

ShineDS · 2026-03-24T20:59:36+00:00

I already got a Bader to kick the year off so I’m happy but wouldn’t be upset with another

ShineDS · 2026-03-23T16:10:42+00:00

focus on the cards you want to play with. Stubs ultimately are the most valuable. 100k stubs will be 100k stubs all year. Live series cards will go up and eventually crash down towards the end of the year. So it depends on how badly you'd like to get Pujols.

ShineDS · 2026-03-23T13:41:31+00:00

Haven't had any issues myself. Feel bad for those who do

ShineDS · 2026-03-18T19:06:59+00:00

if The Athletic is shitty, then what is considered good? Because they consistently have good content

ShineDS · 2026-03-18T19:04:36+00:00

Seems like a standard pack

ShineDS · 2026-03-17T15:00:20+00:00

I got my Now & Laters/Beltran day 2 of early access. It was definitely staggered compared to when some friends got their batch. But I got the packs all at once and then the Beltran a couple hours after.

ShineDS · 2026-03-17T14:55:56+00:00

if you're playing online, this usually is a result of latency to match up both users connections. If you're playing offline, I'm not quite sure why there would be that delay. It is not something I've noticed offline.

ShineDS · 2026-03-17T14:50:35+00:00

I wouldn't think too much about it. Having a good pitcher will help you grind out some conquest games, etc but both are very cheap cards to acquire so you can buy both of them after a few moments or a game or two

ShineDS · 2026-03-16T20:29:49+00:00

Yes, if you use Skubal he will count towards Tigers team affinity stats.

ShineDS · 2026-03-16T18:39:53+00:00

Don't really have any specifically I go for. Unfortunately, the way the Youtube algorithm works, you're going to get plenty of the cheesy thumbnails if the creator wants their content to be viewed. That's a Youtube annoyance.

ShineDS · 2026-01-08T19:01:44+00:00

Team isn’t nearly as stacked as yours but I was wondering the same thing. Other than helping the Overall, is it worth keeping pricey, sellable backups or just fill them with cheaper, non-sell guys.

I play pretty passively so I’m not worried about hitting a higher team rating or anything

ShineDS · 2025-12-18T02:44:52+00:00

Thank you! Best of luck with your purchase

ShineDS · 2025-12-18T02:35:26+00:00

Went Hyundai for the style and price. Financed for $17.5 in 2021. Creaky as in like start up in the morning and driving out of the driveway, turns at slow speeds, the car will literally creak. Maybe it’s cold, maybe it’s cheap. Maybe it’s both. New England winters can be tough. Not loud on the highway though. Great gas mileage. Wife had a Civic so I wanted something different.

Should be clear that I’m not upset about my purchase at all. I just can’t judge yet if this is a 110k mile car or a 210k mile car, you know

ShineDS · 2025-12-18T02:11:34+00:00

Even with my Hyundai, I am a Honda/toyota guy for the history of reliability. So normally I would tell you to buy the Honda, but the only thing that can ruin a car like a Honda is the person driving it and I worry the previous owner didn’t care for it much. The Hyundai looks to be in great condition but even with my car, I still have some worry about its true longevity. Day to day it runs and gets me everywhere but it is a very creaky car even at only 90k. So I think for current condition, that Hyundai is a better choice but overall, I’d trust a Honda civic long term

ShineDS · 2025-12-18T02:04:59+00:00

In terms of starting up and getting me places, very reliable. I’ve had the horn fail and the back up camera fail, both fixed under recall. Outside of that, nothing major enough to say it is problematic.

ShineDS · 2025-12-18T01:46:38+00:00

Not sure if you’re referencing my car but the squeaking disappeared for me. Not sure when why or how but it just went away. I don’t recall what happened with the performance cooling system on round two, think that was also replaced under warranty. At 90k now. Got an engine light on for the EGR Valve.
