Victor Vodnik is a former Braves reliever prospect who was pretty filthy in the Braves' organization pre Covid and then he struggled after that 2020 layoff season and was then a part of the trade they made for Pierce Johnson. He has a pretty live arm and had a decent enough rookie campaign for someone who has to pitch in Coors. ERA right around 4 across 55 apperances.
Thank you for just doing a reveal and not having to slow roll the label to show the grade. AND thank you for not doing the “Lets Go!” Scream. Keep up all the great baseball card content :)
I sent 12 to PSA a couple months ago and got all 10’s. I even got an upgrade charge on a 24 chrome green refractor auto /99 Yamamoto. I remember being super picky on that order though, no wishful thinking cards. Thanks for sharing!
Sometimes cards have light scratches you can see with a 4x magnifying glass. I don't know if the card graders use it but is noticeable. Because some cards gets tossed around inside their sealed packs. 2024 Prestige Sunburst football has this. Some. You can also see tiny dot patterns on the cards
I’m loving the Orioles and Phillies this year, have been buying up Holliday and Marsh rookie autos but love seeing the amount of rookies in the Series 2 update set. Can’t beat the throwback 89’ series inserts and parallels too
I feel like every order over 20 cards from PSA now has an obligatory 6-7 head scratcher to keep us wondering. And yes the gem rates have dropped considerably in the last year.
2022 HFA's have a 10% gem rate across the set and the Black Gold's are about the same. I've been hearing the Raywaves this year have been grading tough.
Great video, thanks Stryker! I haven't yet sent any cards in to be graded, but I really need to soon. I'm unsure whether to use PSA or another service. PSA seems so secretive on their reasons for grades. 🤔
Since PSA and SGC are part of the same company and own 90% of the grading market, I sense their standards for grading went up. I have no evidence but my gut says yes because they monopolized the grading market. Thank you for the content.
Stryker you must rip the double rip card from Allen and Ginter, if you're careful and use a exacto knife you can salvage the outer card, and then when you're done with a little bit of super glue put it back together. I can't wait to be able to get back to work so I can pick up some of the new A&G.
Good to see this. I actually cancelled my PSA account after two submissions (40 cards or so). The grading was a coin flip, and I’m not interested in turning $500 cards into $50 cards, so it’s a hard pass for me. I’ll eventually crack open most of my 9’s, which could easily be 10s.
For what they charge for grading they should take 15 seconds to indicate what they found wrong with the card. Then again, if they did, they could possibly have less cards sent in for grading if we knew what to look out for.
Hi, I'm new to card grading. Is there a discount when sending higher quantities of cards? I ask because I don't understand why people would spend $20 to grade a $5 card. Thanks.
Hey, wanted to give you a heads up that i sent you an email, after watching one of your videos, where you mentioned selling off extra Update inserts. Knowing youre a busy man and probably get 100s of emails daily; just wanted to let you know i sent one of them.
Do you get most of your cards graded as a potential future investment? I just noticed that some of the cards are only worth roughly $20-25 as a PSA 10 right now but have potential to grow in value. Love the content!
I love how you just get into the video. No nagging for likes, comments, etc. Just great content! Thank you!
Glad you enjoy it!
Samez much approve of just facedown flippy. Only need to sweat maybe some of the big boys
I love that and the fact he just reveals the grade. There's no thunmb over the grade talking for 30 seconds lol

I sent in 2 Chrome Chourio RC. Both came back as 6’s. Brought them into my LCS and all 3 guys could not figure out why they weren’t 9’s minimum.
Who the hell would ever grade a Freddy peralta, that right there is the definition of way to much crap being graded
The PSA 7 has an obvious print line in the center where the ray wave is

Great video!! Psa reveals are my favorites

It's the NJ office. Whenever my cards go there, I know I'm going to get some future recracks.
I just posted a comment … I cancelled my PSA account over this.
Appreciate so much new content Stryker!!
No problem!

Yeah man definitely tough grades on Chrome this year, especially those xfractors and raywaves. Seems like kind of a toss up. Great return!
Vodnik is nothing crazy, but he’s a solid back end of the bullpen guy for the Rockies. I only know of him because I had him in fantasy this year
Thanks for sharing. Sent away my first PSA order last week - used your code to save $25 👍
Fantastic!
Jordan Westburg is underrated, keep grading those!

Some great returns. Thanks for the promo code. Will hopefully be able to apply it soon.

I got the same Hurley auto card, plus I live 5 minutes away from their stadium. You just insured me too check if I can gem it up😅

is a gunnar henderson yellow crackle /50 2024 topps series two good
By any chance do you have a how to send to psa video?? Or any plans to make one?? Thanks
I do. ua-cam.com/video/ERULj3ALQvo/v-deo.html
@@StrykerBreaks thanks.. Definitely gonna use ur discount
Just got back my 50 card submission:
33 10s
13 9s
4 8s
Did the Wilyer 7 have a print line or issue on the right side near his knee?
I just got back a jackson holiday x factor that got a 10 also, was stoked on that!! My sparkle /99 skenes got an 8 tho, was sad to see that one 😞
Did you end up getting the new slabs or did you get them back in the ones you’re used to? I got an order back last week 20 cards all in new slabs
my red wave Dominguez got an 8. not sure what to do with it.
Try listing it as is. I think an 8 of a low numbered card like that is better than a raw. At least I'd rather buy an 8 than a raw.
As a guy who has never sent anything to get graded, how does it work?
Best in da biz , always great content
Stryker happy monday and I hope Caminero studs up this next season.
Happy Monday!
was it expensive for the box ? also what are your thoughts on Beckett ? I really not a fan of how PSA force a memberhip
I just hit a Jackson Holliday X-Fractor that I’m going to be sending in to PSA. Wish me luck!
Anything about that Outman being an error with the RC logo? Were all the True Photos of him also errors?
Do these graded cards come in sleeves?
Great video stryker 🤘🤘
Thanks 👍
@@StrykerBreaks I live vicariously through you brother keep pulling heat and I'll see ya on the next one
I have that exact same Freddy peralta auto
Have your recent subs come back with surface scratches? Just curious. 20 of the 26 of my last order did. Pretty easy to get off but 🤷🏻♂️
Let’s go Stryker!
Let's GOOOO!
Wilyer Abreu watching this:
😔😔😔
The Trout Ohtani is WAY off-center bro, one side has barely one snowflake and the other side has two!
Stryker what would you say the best bang for your buck in update?
I've made lots of videos and streams talking about it. Here is a detailed video about that: ua-cam.com/video/G838e-wpp1Y/v-deo.html
I graded the Mike trout shohei ohtani mvp caliber card Mother’s Day and also got a 9
Good video !!
Thanks!
My fanatics boxes aren’t coming until nov 12-18 now🙃I better get a refund for paying for 3-7 day delivery

Yes, check out my ebay store: www.ebay.com/str/decorgalorestore
gotta be a surface issue

You’re smoking nickel rocks if you think PSA is looking at the centering on the back of modern cards lol..
Nice
