Skenes could be one pitch away from Tommy John Surgery, which would keep him out for 2 years. Complete gambling by spending 80k on that card. Batters aren’t as risky as pitchers, but it’s all a gamble. Heck, look at Acuna who is gonna be out for another year now for the second time with a major injury, of his young career.
Big Congrats to Ryan on picking up that amazing Cy Young Rookie Cabinet. Cards, cabinets, postcards, photos, supplements, Programs, Magazines, etc… It’s all paper related with an image. It’s ALL good if Cy Young is on it. Heck, we can add bats, pins, balls, autographs to the list as well with him. His stats aren’t going to change and he will forever be one of key pitchers to ever be elected to the HOF. Very safe investment and there wasn’t too much available from 1891-1902 with a Cy Young image on it.

What happens if Skenes has a career ending injury this year (no, let's hope that doesn't happen). What would that refractor be worth? I can't imagine anybody would pay much for it. Total speculation. Even if he goes on to have a decent career, let's say borderline HOF worthy, what will the card be worth in 15-20 years? It just blows my mind people have this kind of money to just piss away. But then again, what if he has a prolific pitching career and is a first ballot HOFer. What would it be worth then? Well, to me, not much.

It is just another silly game of hot potato. Some will win big, some will win small, and someone will be left holding something worth less than a potato.
I used to go on BO because there are always these beyond silly cards being hyped up. I remember all the experts telling me how amazing Yasiel Puig was and how at 30k/40K(can't remember) his superfractor was a steal. I am guessing a cup of coffee and a five spot could own it now.

How are those 1/1 Wander Franco rookie cards tracking?

It would be interesting to see some sort of index that tracked these 1/1 cards that sold before the players had much, if any, MLB experience.
