-Both of these options are in the same price range but somewhat different types of cards.
Option A: 1989 Fleer Ken Griffey Jr RC autograph PSA 9/10
OR
Option B: 1982 Topps Traded #98 Cal Ripken Jr RC PSA 9 (centered)
Which would you guys prefer for the future in terms of adding 1 of these cards to your collections? Curious to hear what collectors think.
And hoping to get some clarity on what I should buy lol

Traded ripken gets my vote.
Personally I think autographs are just ink on cards and should get a MK notation 😁
Agree with coispacks - Ripken all day plus I'm not a fan of autographs.
Ripken for me too!
Investment? Griffey Jr. autos are golden.
I would go for Ripken as well.
What would be of concern to me would be the Griffey autograph fading as the years go by. If you were holding long term. But his auto is one of the best around based on readability.
Griffey
Get the Griffey now while his auto is still pristine and go shopping next time for Cal (whenever you have funds).
Close call but I may go for the Griffey. Especially since he's a real tough auto to get outside of a paid signing. But then again, I would chase the 89 Upperdeck signed over the Fleer.
Ripken
