And, those collectors from the 1990's who do return, will go after Griffey so I would not be surprised to see a bit of a renaissance in his prices. The three players since 1980 I would keep long term are Ripken, Griffey and Jeter

How about Cabrera? Career numbers thus far plus triple crown put him in high standing imo.
