Scotty b, could you please do a video on top prices on base cards no autographs no gold no silver no Chrome if you know what I mean, just the base cards! A lot of these cards the only people will ever have it or the rich people or people that save money for these kind of things so please consider the lower income people and do one that is more relevant😊
I remember thinking Acuna’s superfractor was a steal. Still think it was a decent price and has upside.. but it’s definitely scarier to own today then a year ago
Great video. A few stood out, especially when they were back to back. The Tatis is ridiculous compared to JRod for a similar price. I question the legitimacy of the Tatis sale. There's a veritable army of Tatis bag holders out there probably trying to stabilise the card. That's a crazy price for Tatis given his circumstances. I'm not discounting that folks with lots of money don't care what they pay for a pc card but it still seems sus. I think the most reliable prices are those for players who are close to retirement. That's likely where the card ends up long term. When you compare Verlander with Tatis you realise how little sense the modern sports card market makes. Again, great video. And I had to stop at the ten minute mark.
Would you rather have a PSA 6 1952 topps Willie Mays or a /5 Julio Rodriguez...which there are multiple numbered Julio cards from different Topps sets.
Like i say, Pete Alonso gets no hobby respect. Top 2 in HR n RBI the past 5 seasons even with a low BA. Go figure & in a big market. We know the Mets stink & doesnt get much exposure.
What are your thoughts on on the C J Stroud signature on the topps series 2 baseball Let’s play ball ! Good card to grade ?? Should this card be worth more in a few years ?? Like your videos
For the Devers I’ll take the sapphire, I can’t stand his “1st” bowman not having the 1st logo and also his autograph on the bowman’s looks like a elementary school auto while his RC autos look great lol
Not sure if possible, but this would be an interesting video idea…. So this video has a bunch of talent in the top echelons of active WAR (using Baseball Reference numbers here). Keep going down the list until you find someone with good WAR and the cheapest ‘highest sale of the past 12 months’. You don’t have to frame it as a bargain, just the opposite of these younger players with little WAR but an expensive high-sale. So names not on your Top 30 - McCutchen, Semien, Stanton, Heyward, Yelich, Bogaerts and so on. Also interesting to note- * Matt Olson had a max sale of $5,160 (2013 Bowman Chrome Orange Auto /25 BGS 9.5) on PWCC that would’ve put him between #24 & 25. * Alex Bregman had a max sale of $7,980 (2016 Bowman Chrome Prospects Red Refractor /5 BGS 9.5) on Goldin which puts him between #18 & 19.
Good stuff as always! See a few familiar cards here.😁😁 re: Purples /10..two years 13/14. There is a Betts purple... Never could plunk down big cash for those, rather just go after an orange at that point. Same with those Sotos...that platinum would be cool if had shine, but it's just a dull grey. Agree on the Ohtani. Easily 400-500K at this point. See a red Acuna just went for over 60k? I was a bit shocked it still commanded such a price, all things considered.
I would also add that Wander still has not been charged with any crimes yet. He is also still taking batting practice regularly, even so, doubt he will ever be welcomed back in the MLB family.
Okay. This is pretty awesome. Good work. I suggest continuing this series, and do the top prospects cards of each team and their highest value. Thatd be cool too. We all know in cards bowman is king. So thatd be awesome seeing what bowman 1st and bowman of prospects at each team are going for. 🤝
BGS 9.5 is not lower than PSA 10. They are both considered the same grade and gives Beckett the room to utilize the BGS 10 grades, which is higher than PSA 10. While considering the market "prefers" PSA 10's because (insert any random and silly reason here), anyone with 20/10 vision can argue that PSA 10's tend to be of lower quality than BGS 9.5's or even TAG 10's....
Aaron Judge has 281 HRs and is now the record holder for most Home Runs in a players first 1,000 games. He has 2 more than second place, but he also has only played 902 games. Figure a fairly conservative estimate, for him, of a HR every 3 games, that gets him to 33 HRs, give or take, and a total of 314 in his first 1,000 games. He also.currently has the second best HR/AB in history, behind a steroid cheat named McGwire and beyond a GOAT named Ruth. Add to this that he is top 15 all time in Slugging and OPS. Add to it the fact that after 902 games he has the 27th highest WAR of any Right Fielder in history. Plus how great he is with fans... Is it any wonder he's one of the biggest draws in the hobby? It truly is not hyperbolic to say Aaron Judge is one of the 5-10 most impressive sluggers in history. (This isn't saying he's greater than others necessarily, it is just judging what he has done so far)

I’m a base head, my buddy needs to buy numbered. There’s two kinds of collectors.
I would love to meet and talk to the people that can spend this kind of money on baseball cards. Great video Scottie.

Dude your hilarious i like how; subtly call yourself out for the typos and stuff😂

510k for a trout rookie lol. Even if never got injured that’s just nuts
"stars" must be a loose term.

Buy Vintage. You will get burned in ultra modern
These prices are insane.

A little surprised Kyle Tucker didn't make the list! Must've been just off. Thanks Scotty B
For the Devers I’ll take the sapphire, I can’t stand his “1st” bowman not having the 1st logo and also his autograph on the bowman’s looks like a elementary school auto while his RC autos look great lol
Crazy my favorite players have ths most expensive cards, so i guess ill never own them 😢
I would value the Ohtani Red at 2 million compared to the Acuna and Harper sales.
Guarentee like 9/10 of these come down considerably in next few years
Id like to hear more about that altered Soto super...anyone know that story?
Thanks Scottie, what a great list! I do appreciate all the work you put into your content. It would take me a full day to compile something like this.
Rodriguez way too much.
Can't imagine buying that wander 💀
Lots of players that nrrr to drop prices
Imagine if those cards at #2 and #3 were straight 10s. What would they have sold for?
A nice 1986 topps traded Tiffany Barry Bonds is way better than all this trash
With some andro on it!

"It might not be every player that youd like, Yordan Alvarez isnt in here; and i shouldve included him" 0:16
"At #16 we have Yordan Alvarez!" 7:00
😂😂

Lindor is going to the HOF but will not be elected first ballot. No where near going to be an all-time great SS. Underwhelming career as a Met.
I would also add that Wander still has not been charged with any crimes yet. He is also still taking batting practice regularly, even so, doubt he will ever be welcomed back in the MLB family.
I think Paul will get into the hall

“Another Goldschmidt sold recently that one went for less” Spitballin listeners know who got that card 🤫
Some expensive current cards. Beyond my budget.
Wander = dust?
Love these kind of videos! keep em coming! don´t listen to skinnyvinnie :D
Awesome info. Thanks Scottie
I think judge and Ohtani will be #1 and 2 in three years
What happen to Torkelson? Olson?............Vladdy blows :)
As a Toronto fan, yes Vladdy has disappointed but Olson gets dinged cause of his age & Torkelson hasn’t been great either
Grinding those numbers.
Awesome topic to cover Scottie B
Wait ? Is yordan Alvarez in this or not ? 😂

Pookie Butts for POTUS '24...Scotty Buttons VP
Ohtani shit is grossly, I mean grossly overpriced.
Buying an Altuve is the same as Franco. Useless.
Anybody who pays these prices has to be crazy with a pocket full of money
