Im thinking of picking up a Joba Chamberlain Exquisite Rookie Auto....Advice?

Is this a dumb move. I kind of just want this card. I know pitchers are risky buys, but I like him and he seems to have a bright future. Someone talk me into or out of this buy.

I think he will have a bright future and the only bad outing I have seen him have was the one day with the bugs flying all around him , which was completely understandable .
His stats before turning pro are ridiculous .
His stats after turning pro are ridiculous .
He's got a few pitches we still have not seen .
I think unless he gets injured he will continue to improve , Jeeeze, can you imagine ?
The guy is already an animal , I would hate to have to face him as a batter .
Don't walk , run and get it !

After the signing of Hawkins and Rivera I would imagine Joba will be a starter.
one hand. I really think you are buying when its high and should wait until it is lower. I know its hard to wait, but unless he
comes out and wins 20, it aint going too much higher. Hitter get big money not pitchers.

Well , I don't want this to come out the wrong way , But I hope you're wrong and this guys cards all go through the roof over night .
I wish the guy a great career and I believe he's got a good a shot as anyone else out there .
If I had the cheddar right now to get it , I would get it .
Most of you gentlmen know the ins and outs of this card business a whole lot more than I ever will because that is what you do , you buy to make money in the future , I just buy to keep them .
So I understand . . .
But he don't just throw heat , also from what I understand , he will be a starter next season.
I passed by the new Yankee stadium this morning , The entrance is almost completed and it looks just like the original yankee stadium , I was like OMG !! I took some pictures , I'll try to get them on here as soon as I can , I was happy to see that .
