September Pick Ups

Kenny Lofton is the greatest player to fall off the HOF ballot after one year. It's a joke.

Agreed, and I suspect this will get remedied at some point by the veteran’s committee. There will be cases if there being not enough of his cards graded to meet demand.

For example, the ‘92 Fleer above is one of only 10 graded examples on the PSA pop report.

Lou Whitaker and Bobby Grich are in that discussion.

I think by WAR, those guys are #1 and #2 (75.1 and 71.1 on BBREF, respectively).

The surprise #3 (at least to me) - Rick Reuschel at 69.5, then Lofton (68.4) and Kevin Brown (67.8).

Got these Wade Boggs in the mail today. Used this lot to get to $25 on the Happy25 eBay coupon.

If anyone needs one I would do a trade in PWEs for almost any Boggs card from the last 20 years.

A couple more young stars arrived today.

Love it! I found a group of 4 or 5 1986 Topps cards that are all miscut like that..they were all in a 5000 count box and together so I think they came from the same pack.
