    A little quick out of the gate...but I will not receive this card until August. I'm happy to add this Tom Terrific card to my collection showing Seaver in his pitching motion during live action during a game

    Love this one. I have an 8 I pulled and graded but that is sweet. Maybe my favorite TS card.

    A nice 73 card.

    One of the better Killebrew cards. Not the most valuable, but great action photo................and he doesn't look fat at all.

    I love the 73 set, and that's my favorite Killebrew card of all he has. Just an awesome photo, and that's a great card.

    Looking for a Glen Rice Inkredible and Alex Rodriguez cards

    Inflation and gas prices are killing my budget. So I started shopping at the TJ Maxx store for cards.

    My new inflation friendly pursuit is Trevor Lawrence Leaf factory slabbed auto RCs. I really don't want to buy PSA 10's in this economy. These are a nice budget-friendly compromise.

    I have to stop at 1969 because he already has too much stuff but that is a really nice looking Mantle!

    My guy Nolan... Haven't seen blurry around for a while to argue that Rendon is the better rookie 3b from the class of 13, so we will just accept that it is Nolan, :D



    Nolan Arenado is so underrated and arguably the best third baseman of this generation. I picked up that card for cheap last year such an undervalued guy in the hobby.

    This 68 opc just arrived

    Hey, good luck with your mission. This one is mine.

    Very nice. Love the way the 68 #2 looks signed. Here’s my Topps that was cracked from a 6 holder many years ago. Hard to even find Topps dead centered

    Just realized it’s in a blue flip holder, so this was one of the first of my signed Orr’s. These are great signed

    Does Manny Machado count as a member of that class? Pretty close between those two.

    but it needs this

    This 68 opc is on its way

    but it too needs this

    This 68 opc is at eBay authentication

    and when it finally arrives it needs this

    and then needs this also

    😊

    Forgive me if I missed this elsewhere, are you putting together a run of Orr autographed cards?

    I only do Orr Boston. No Chicago. Mostly opc cards, but not all of them.

    He does, and I agree he is closer to Nolan than Rendon, but nobody likes Machado ! :D:D:D

    Great class of 3B men that year.

    I cannot hit curveball. Straightball I hit it very much. Curveball, bats are afraid.

    Nolan Arenado is so underrated and arguably the best third baseman of this generation. I picked up that card for cheap last year such an undervalued guy in the hobby.

    I'm not a young pup. Born in 76 and watch a LOT of baseball. Watched a lot of Brett, Schmidt, Chipper, Rolen. Never saw Brooks play but I'd argue that Nolan is the BEST to EVER do it at 3B with his glove. I think he still has to put years of offensive production together to be mentioned with Brett/Schmidt/Chipper offensively, but he is even better with the leather than they were when you watch him in person. I'm a Cleveland transplant to Colorado and my comparison defensively is that he is the Omar Vizquel of 3b, just amazing with the glove. And I agree he is still undervalued compared to a lot of the shiny new 23-25 year olds everyone is spending their paychecks on.

    FYI - to all you old heads who will never admit someone today is as good as a past legend, I invite you to go to youtube and watch highlight videos of Nolan at 3B before you comment if you haven't watched him play in person.

    While we're discussing 3B, I wanted to introduce the group to Austin Riley, who has quietly become the best offensive 3B in either league this season. He is a dark horse NL MVP.

    I don’t get the Braves locally but watch them when I can on MLB; I miss them being on TBS.

    I know the kid can rake but how’s his glove?

    Glove wise it's still Brook's! Second place would probably be Buddy Bell. On both choices I am slightly bias, I grew up an Orioles fan and my NL team was the Reds. I dropped the O's as my team after Washington got the Nationals and after Peter Angelos ran them into the ground financially.

    Jeff,

    Huge Nolan fan here. Guy will be in the discussion for best ever once he retires. Better bat than Brooks but not as good of a glove. Not a knock on Nolan - he can pick it, for sure - but Brooks was insane.

    Probably the only guy I’d put ahead of Arenado, honestly.

    Best,

    Tim
