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.

A nice 1986 topps traded Tiffany Barry Bonds is way better than all this trash

Buy Vintage. You will get burned in ultra modern

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.

Guarentee like 9/10 of these come down considerably in next few years

Anybody who pays these prices has to be crazy with a pocket full of money

Awesome info. Thanks Scottie

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.

Anything reaching four figures is a mistake. It's cardboard and ink and Rubin is not an artist.

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)

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....

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.

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.

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.

Cool video 🤙🏼

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😊

What happen to Torkelson? Olson?............Vladdy blows :)

I would love to meet and talk to the people that can spend this kind of money on baseball cards. Great video Scottie.

Awesome topic to cover Scottie B

Love these kind of videos! keep em coming! don´t listen to skinnyvinnie :D

Imagine if those cards at #2 and #3 were straight 10s. What would they have sold for?

I think judge and Ohtani will be #1 and 2 in three years

Pookie Butts for POTUS '24...Scotty Buttons VP

Wait ? Is yordan Alvarez in this or not ? 😂

Buying an Altuve is the same as Franco. Useless.

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

Grinding those numbers.

I’m looking forward to those SP’s. All 3 are nice looking cards.

There’s also a Jackson Holliday in here supposedly.

And now you have to include 'Fun Face' (Jackson Holliday) it appears.......#1

Why are they ruining my wyatt langford by making him an SP this makes me sad

Great video 👍🏽

This video is incredible. Thanks for making it.

So the Taco Refractor, if you win, you can have a lifetime supply of diarrhea. Thanks, but no thanks.

enjoyed the video! the rockies fan in you came out with the arenado comment though, hed need to play into his 40s or go on a crazy run of post season performances to even have a remote chance at this point

this is actually an awesome guide to some of the newer inserts as someone who is just getting into baseball cards

Preordered an hta box of series 2 and was disappointed when the checklist came out.

Scottie i don’t agree with I love 1’st on babe Johnny and Pete that’s a genius move

I have used many grading companies and CGC has been the best experience so far. I will never buy or sell PSA again unless I can get the card for raw value and crack it to send to CGC. I was really high on HGA until I used them, and after having to send back many cards because of flaws in their slabs over and over again, I have written them off for good. I like SCG as well but their slabs are nowhere near as nice as CGC. I am also very interested in TAG but I am holding off on them to see what happens with them, they have had far too many changes to their grading strategy lately and it worries me, but I like the idea of having a grading report you can look up and see exactly where all of the flaws are. CGC please take note of what TAG is doing.

i love your content but in no way would this set ever be determined to be good. it might be good for true collectors hunting specifics as you point out, but its going to be lighting money on fire for sure for pretty much everyone else. i'll buy singles if i buy anything from this, and maybe 1 hobby box just for fun and science

I really don't think major league stats should be included in these rankings. The sample sizes are so small that they are essentially meaningless.

Kevin Heart are actual size of him.

I like the my 1st bowman auto only because my last name is Bowman. 😂

Holliday in Update then?

Wyatt Langford could be Torkelson Mark II. Heavily hyped college bat who stinks at MLB - from a hobby standpoint of course. At least Langford's SP has him hitting.

I could only assume you caught a fair amount of flak for the first vid. However that's to be expected giving the SP's and people's perspectives and biases. Appreciate the update. I really like Wyatt Langford. Great pop and speed on the bags.

I'm happy to see my guy Lawlar made your list. I've been grabbing up his stuff whenever the price is right. Even got a couple Panini autos, I don't mind them when they're on card signatures and relatively low numbered, plus they added a RC shield before Topps did which is a nice touch.

You say who to collect/chase.. than rag on them in future videos… 🤷🏽‍♂️

So can you get like a Wyatt Langford hot dog card, or no?

Looks like a horrible checklist
