Honestly, I cant imagine you making your money back on that deal ever. It's pretty unlikely there will be a hobby run on journeyman pitchers in the 52' set high number or not. I would offer 400 less than that price and negotiate from there if you really want the Church.
Really though, if I had the extra scratch for the month and wanted to spoil myself, the suggestion above of getting a star or HOF that impresses yourself and the uninformed everyday colector in your 6-7 range might be far more fun and more apt to hold value as the amount of registry builders vs. everyday collectors who focus on well known players is a vast difference when it comes to cashing out if needed. I focus from a limited budget perspective though in my choices, if costs are not an issue than do as you please of course.
Just my two cents.
