I have like 4 Jose Ramirez RCs (Topps Chrome) that I didn't even realize until a few months ago just sitting in with some commons. He has definitely been an under the radar type of player.
Great list Scott, I'm mostly in agreement on your tiers. Great to see Kyle Tucker get some love, I think this is the first time I've seen him on one of these lists and he's a sneaky good player with a decent shot to make the hall if he can have a 3-4 year peak of 7+ WAR a year. He hasn't done it yet but I think he has it in him and he'd still be in his early 30's after that peak to keep accumulating. I'd put Tucker as having a better chance to perform at an old age than most of these players due to body type and his type of play.
Sale really went from ‘borderline Strasburg situation’ to ‘ok, we can have the conversation’. Despite him being Age-36 next season, having less than 2,000 regular season IP could keep him fresh(er) for a late 30s boom. He already has his Cy Young (finally) and 8 Top-6 finishes ! If he passes 3,000Ks in the next 4 seasons (586 to go), it’s not even an if.
Really solid job Scottie. You clearly put a lot of effort into this. The only thing I question is the importance/value of a World Series appearance/win in the calculation. Of all sports, I feel baseball is very team oriented and players like Ted Williams, Ken Griffey Jr..and Mike Trout can be amazing and never get a ring, and it’s not their fault.
great video :) I could have fanboyed on Shohei Ohtani like most home runs all time for japanese born player, 50/50 club, only 3 time unanimous mvp. I'm not sure if you done it, but have you ever done a video on the most loaded rookie card set of all time? maybe even one of those tier ranking of rookies
Hello Scottie, Great Video I have a few of these players cards Scherzer, Kershaw PSA 10'S,I hope Bregman has a good career along with a few more ofthese players Happy New Year bud🎉
Good video. I would take under 500 home runs for Aaron Judge, but he does have a strong HOF case. Another MVP or a World Series would seal the deal if he hasn't already.
I currently own one Chris Sale card that’s worth $130ish. That wouldn’t pursued me to hype one player over another. Full transparency however, I hope to get more soon if both players. As of right now, Sale has a much better HOF case in my eyes. For reference, here is a link that shows how Sale leads Cole in almost every stat: stathead.com/baseball/vs/gerrit-cole-vs-chris-sale? Both are good, but Sale is closer to the hall of fame as of right now. Cole is younger, but has work to do.
Some ‘cusp of even being the 25% guys, but it’s not impossible Scottie adds them in a future episode’ Edwin Diaz, Josh Hader and Emmanuel Clase. Diaz was on Kimbrel pace (losing 2023 might make all the difference in the long run), and Hader has his accolades (but still, they have 225 and 199 saves by Age-30 respectively). Behind them both, Clase has started fast (158 saves before Age 27 season) and if he can be around 250+ saves when he turns 30, could he get another 200-250 in his 30s, overtake Jansen & Kimbrel, maybe even knock off Lee Smith for 3rd All-Time ? Could Clase be the greatest closer not named Rivera or Hoffman ? If Clase gets to that 250SV/Age 30, he gets a 25% mark. The other one - have mentioned it on previous videos (and Spitballin’ Cards) - Aaron Nola. Age-32 next year, 6 more years under contract. 10 years in, 35.6 WAR, 1779Ks, 104 wins. He has time to accumulate BUT my worry is he’ll end up in the Dead Zone in that All-Time Strikeouts mark - #26-28 : Tanana, Cone and Finley. 2600-2700Ks for each, 3-5 All Stars, 57-62 WAR, Cy Young for Cone. When it came time for HOF voting : Tanana 0 votes (1999 ballot), Finley 1 vote (2008 ballot) and Cone 21 votes (2009 ballot)
Trea Turner was coming off an injury, which is why his stolen bases were down. He can still run among the best of them. I doubt Turner makes the hall of fame either, but he's a very good player. Acuna is one ACL injury away from being one of the bigger what could have been. Tatis jr is basically Manny Ramirez. He's not getting in. Unless he buys a ticket.
I didn’t include Xander, but I personally feel like he’s in the 25% range. He’s got a shot, but this last year really concerned me as he heads into his age 32 season.
Curious Scottie... i think i know your answer to this but I'll say Mookie instead of Ohtani 😂 Would you consolidate PSA10 Adrian Beltre & Barry Bonds rookie cards into a Mookie Betts PSA 10 rookie? For me, I'm debating doing that for Ohtani.
Scottie so in your opinion the days of needing 3000 or 500 to be a hall of famer are dead? Crazy to see most of these guys won't even reach 2500 or 400.
Never was. Those are well known milestones but most HOFers like Kirby Puckett, Johnny Bench, Duke Snider etc never reach those. HOF now basically comes down to WAR but back in the day it was usually just a combo of accolades you accumulated and your relationship with the media.
Both will get in. This video is if they retired right now. Harper will most likely be cared about longer, but might not be in yet, but he will easily make it when it’s all said and done.
I love and PC some McCutchen, but he hasn't been an All Star since 2015. Had a killer 4-5 year run before that, but since, just accumulating stats a little at a time and just isn't there (IMO). Maybe a veterans committee selection at some point if he does something like get to 400 homers or leads a crazy Pirates WS run, but, he feels like a miss to me.
Some of these guys you are judging way too early in their careers like Vlad Jr.. Not saying these guys won't make it but you should wait a while on them.
Correction Scottie B: "$hohei OHtani has lots of things "yet" to be D'one!" Get rid of all your "Judge" when opportunities arises & be ready to snag some 💵hohei OH! Better New Year to U & Yours Scottie B'ro❣
@@garygordon3075 Both Freeman/Harper will be HOF, I like both of them, but when comparing numbers against numbers, Judge is there, and will probably surpass both in numbers in the coming years. Judge has 3 years over 50 bombs, so he's not a fluke. Probably would have had it in 2023 if he wouldn't have gotten hurt, but still knocked 37 in 105 games. Freeman is clutch. Like him a lot. Bryce, too. What Harper and Freeman have done in 13-15 season, Judge is passing them in 9. My post wasn't to take anything away from Any of the players, I just think it's silly to have Judge at "Almost There" or "Need to see more" Appreciate the reply! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
If judge dies today he goes to the hall of fame in less than 12 months does that not make him a lock? Only one like that would be ohtani imo he’s the greatest. Hitter of our generation and yeah sadly he’s not an October player but that won’t hurt his hof chances a bit only his legacy as a historic yankee (which would make him top 10 instead of top 3 ever so still great)
@ yeah like you cant google what hállenos if a player fíes HEB eco es exigible immediately lol treinta to be finicky with Ruelas on yt juego is a hofgo to sleep astros fan or red sox or mets lol
I dont need computer stats to tell me who belongs in the HOF. Freeman, Betts, Trout, and Arenado will make it. It's still too early on Soto and Ohtani. They need more dominant years. Thank you for showcasing some of the non Yacht owners cards. However, Sapphire cards are still too expensive especially 16 through 18 to own.
Bro just wants to show off his Definitive 1/1 Judge 😂
Lol 😂😂😂
I would too. That card is so sick
🤣🤣🤣
Speaking of the HOF. I would love to see a video of how RC card values were affected of last 10 or 20 players to get into the HOF.
they weren't unless they are the best of the best
Wrigley not Fenway for Tucker. He’s officially a Chicago Cub. Love the content FYI.
I have like 4 Jose Ramirez RCs (Topps Chrome) that I didn't even realize until a few months ago just sitting in with some commons. He has definitely been an under the radar type of player.
Fantastic review!
Great job Scottie!
Love the idea, great video Scottie

Tucker is THE guy!!
Good video. I would take under 500 home runs for Aaron Judge, but he does have a strong HOF case. Another MVP or a World Series would seal the deal if he hasn't already.
Awesome thank you
Arenado should be a lock based on his 10 Gold Gloves alone.
Best video Scott has made. Informative and interesting
People tend to forget Mookie is not so innocent himself
Altuve and Bregman can get in when Barry Bonds gets in
Great video....
Dude, to pump Sale that hard, then low ball Cole makes sense I guess, considering ur showing off recently purchased Sale cards.
I currently own one Chris Sale card that’s worth $130ish. That wouldn’t pursued me to hype one player over another. Full transparency however, I hope to get more soon if both players.
As of right now, Sale has a much better HOF case in my eyes. For reference, here is a link that shows how Sale leads Cole in almost every stat: stathead.com/baseball/vs/gerrit-cole-vs-chris-sale?
Both are good, but Sale is closer to the hall of fame as of right now. Cole is younger, but has work to do.
I never liked closers before I met Chris and Jeff
How about some KC Royals? Salvador Perez and Zack Greienke?
Scott, you're not a homer. You're a home run.
Some ‘cusp of even being the 25% guys, but it’s not impossible Scottie adds them in a future episode’

What about Wheeler?
Still has some work to do.
@@ACD1994Agreed. But so do most of the guys on the list.

Acuna is one ACL injury away from being one of the bigger what could have been. Tatis jr is basically Manny Ramirez. He's not getting in. Unless he buys a ticket.
Soto is going to the HOF but not going to be a collector's favorite. Jumped too many teams too early
Bellinger and Yelich??
Xander Bogaerts?
I didn’t include Xander, but I personally feel like he’s in the 25% range. He’s got a shot, but this last year really concerned me as he heads into his age 32 season.
Ohtani is definitely already a lock to be a hall of famer. He has 3 mvps. Every player with 3 mvps (not tied to steroids) is in the hall.
You have to play a minimum of 10 years to get in. He has a few years to go.
@@nickdrago7390 Even if he plays three more mediocre years he'll still get in for sure.
“Barry bonds got bigger for some reason I don’t know “ 😅😂
Arenado is in. He's better than Santo and Rolen.
Curious Scottie... i think i know your answer to this but I'll say Mookie instead of Ohtani 😂
Would you consolidate PSA10 Adrian Beltre & Barry Bonds rookie cards into a Mookie Betts PSA 10 rookie?

Why did you X out trout on the thumbnail...
Just so I wouldn’t give away everything on the thumbnail!

Bryce Harper has a better shot than Goldschmidt man. Come on.
Both will get in. This video is if they retired right now. Harper will most likely be cared about longer, but might not be in yet, but he will easily make it when it’s all said and done.
Only problem is the amount you take about mvp placement
You either win or you don’t
Even lamonte Wade jr got mvp votes in 2021 😂
Flawless unlicensed rickey henderson autos out selling some topps dynasty rickey henderson autos. Jus sayin

@garygordon3075 flawless just as good yo
No Andrew McCutchen?

Your a homer ... and I'm right. Scotland B. Cards is very sought after.

And I'm a fan of your channel, too, and subscribed! Judge is more of a HOFer than Freeman, Goldschmidt, and Harper. Give him his credit.

Besides fake stat war. What criteria has trout crossed. 500 homers no 3000 hits no. Not a HOFer
Stat sheet should use asterisk to specify reason for PED suspensions.
