@MLBaseball_Live Nobody calls him FTJ

There's an expectation - MLB could see a flurry of Elite or Superstar talent moved at this deadline - like a wild one My Blockbuster Trade Predictions: 1. Yordan Alvarez goes to Tampa Bay 2. Devers goes to the New York Yankees 3. Mike Trout goes to the Atlanta Braves 4. Adley Rutchman goes to Pittsburgh 5. Yordan Alvarez goes to TB Rays 6. Murakami goes across town to Cubs 7. Sonny Gray returns to the Athletics 8. Logan Webb is dealt to St. Louis for a haul that includes one of their top Catching prospects - one of their outfield prospects and a current ML Outfielder. 9. FTJ gets dealt to Toronto 10. The Dodgers land Gunnar Henderson

@MeJohnson13743 @Pittsburgh1Pete Overrated? He’s 22 and has a 45 homer season under his belt…

@Pittsburgh1Pete Caminero is so f'n overrated IMO. Was going to say Xavier Edwards but hes 26 so ill have to add Jackson Chourio.

If you were to to have a “magic 8 ball” to see 25 years from from, what MLB player 25 and younger would be the best to invest in today? My thoughts are Paul Skenes, Junior Caminero, Bobby Witt Jr, Roman Anthony, Jac Caglianone, Konnor Griffin, Elly De La Cruz.. Who am I missing here

@baseball_cards The motivation for grading has never been, I wonder what grade Karl thinks my card is and put it in a new harder to store, clunky case.

What do you think about self grading? "About JCG Graded Cards: JCG Graded cards are professionally graded by highly experienced collectors with years of submitting cards to graders. JCG Graded Cards are cards that we graded. We are not trying to hide that. Our goal is to give high quality graded cards at an affordable price. All cards are looked at under magnification and sealed on a sonic welder just like the big grading companies."

@OleTimeHardball In 2026 style, bullpen game starting with Aroldis in his prime. 😂

You’re facing the following lineup in Game 7 of the World Series. You have your choice of any SP, in his prime. Who gets the ball?

@BBGreatMoments Against a guy that collects nazi merch? I’d say it’s encouraged.

Is bunting to break up a flawless game acceptable, or no?

@FBallAnalysisYT Posey had a relatively short career (11 season, more like 10) but won a ROY, MVP, 5 SS, a GG, 3 rings and totaled a WAR of 45. He’s an easy 1st ballot

Maybe this is a hot take, but I don’t think any of these guys should get in first ballot

@BrandiKruse You can also just look at track and field. The world record women’s 100 m would be beaten by a boy in nearly every state every single year in the high school state championship. Repeat with jumping, throwing, swimming…

Update: The women lost.

@BrianAhlin Near mint is a PSA 7… so…

Just made a sale on eBay and the buyer, after receiving the card, said that they “estimate” that the card would receive an 8 grade therefore I should not have listed it as “near mint or better”. Apparently there was a small mark on the backside of the card (which I did not notice). They now want to return the card or make a claim about it and told me that I need to reevaluate my selling process. For the record, this card sold for $14. What is everyone’s thoughts? @CardPurchaser

@CommanderJuve @CardPurchaser @Topps They want you to feel the authenticity of the 1990 Topps set. I gotta hand it to them, they nailed it.

This is by far the worst centering on any card I have ever pulled in my whole life….unreal @topps. With where prices are now this level of QC is just dirty.

@chefcurryrice2 @CardPurchaser All aces wasn’t SP/SSP in 2023 and earlier. Somehow people don’t realize this. I have 4 all aces from 23 and maybe spent $150 on product that year.

Learned hanger boxes are the way to go for hunting All Aces. Let’s give it a shot

@mathcain11 @CardPurchaser he rookie for sure. The 88 will be an 8 at absolute best, so maybe. The 89s all except maybe top left are not gems on centering alone. The holograms are a tough grade, fraught with corner and surface issues so be real sure. The rest I wouldn’t grade

@CardPurchaser what is your threshold on getting Jordan cards graded. Here is a few in my collection. Is it worth the process vs value in return if I would sell some of these?

@BarryOnHere You are legit making the longevity argument yourself. LeBron has all the years and counting stats and less championships. And played in an era with more scoring/possessions which means more opportunity for rebounds and assists…

Michael Jordan could come out retirement, have 2,313 assists in his next game, and still average fewer assists per game than LeBron. Michael Jordan could come out retirement, have 1,332 rebounds in his next game, and still average fewer rebounds per game than LeBron. Michael Jordan could come out retirement, make 486 shots in a row, and still have a worse field goal percentage than LeBron. "But longevity!! But rings!! But flopping!!" you say as you cope & seethe by watching clips of MJ beating Finals opponents that scored 54 points in a game.

@AndyHolloway Teeth are not tools Andy! 😂 I can’t wait for the story

Putting to bed the rumors

@BigBobsCards Total Prizm or even select vibes. Too geometric or something.

How do we feel about the 2026 Bowman design?!

@manof_sports @CardPurchaser I definitely like the card you sent in better in terms of visual appeal. But I think it’s as fair as you are gonna get from Topps.

Need opinions because I don’t feel good about this. What I sent in damaged versus what I’m receiving back. I sent the auto and I’m receiving the relic auto. Thoughts? @CardPurchaser

@BarryOnHere Grant? 😂 And never played without Rodman you say… became a bull in 1995… ok, pal

An overlooked part of MJ's title runs is that literally none of his best teammates ever missed games in the playoffs. He always had Pippen, Rodman, Grant, etc. there to pick up the slack. Insane luck. Never had to play a dynastic team in the Finals with Timofey Mozgov & Matthew Dellavedova as his best teammates.

@Softykjr Get rid of the seaweed, rice, and vegetables and you might have something

First time making sushi from scratch... what do you think?

@RRstocks @CardPurchaser If you are gonna sell the MJ, it needs to be graded. Maybe the UD Junior as well. Since it sounds you are keeping them, buy some 1 touches and bags and carefully get them out of the screw downs and the old top loaders and into a fresh case that will look better and protect them

@CardPurchaser #baseballcards My dad collected in the late 80s and early 90s. All of these cards have been in a safe for 30 years. What should he do with them. PS, many more, but best photo I have.

@BarryOnHere Triple double is a made up label to give extra credit for hitting threshold in stats we’ve always tracked. Nobody cares. 11-10-10 gets a label but 39-10-9 doesn’t. Sadly we are stupid creatures.

Triple-doubles: LeBron James career: 153 LeBron James after turning 36: 31 Michael Jordan career: 30

@Ihartitz I don’t know what about the history of elite NFL TEs makes people think freaky athleticism has anything to do with it.

Kinda wild the 4.39 tight end didn't have a gain longer than 30 yards in his last year in college
