Is Aaron Judge Headed for the Best Single Season with 200 Strikeouts?

If he keeps hitting 40 bombs a year, being a Yankee I think his value will stay up.

I don't collect modern tho,except for the odd Braves prospects, so not sweating it!

Aaron Judge is in the category of Adam Dunn, Ryan Howard, and Dave Kingman. People need to pump the brakes on this guy, great potential talent, but still a lot of work ahead to show.....Someone last month compared him to Mickey Mantle, that is beyond humorous....

Totally agree, Kevin


- by the way, I just purchased 10 Hoskins rookie cards. LOL

Considering home many homeruns have been hit this year, a 40 homerun guy who bats in the .270s is valuable but hardly historic. But since he's on the Yankees he will get hyped well beyond that.

Looks like a Judge card sold recently for $18K plus.

...from the same seller I got my M116 Walter Johnson a few weeks ago.

I think I did better...for a lot less.

The Judge wasn't even a "1/1" but rather a 1/10. Of course there are probably 100 different 1/1s.

Since my super powers which, to date, had only effected folks in line behind me at banks and grocery stores, and Hoskins has not homered since my lot of RCs arrived, feel free to warn me if you see a hot player and don't won't me to ruin his future.

FYI- I had not 'loaded up' on Aaron Judge cards...I only have what I pulled from packs last year. So, I won't take credit for that one.

Judge has the edge on those guys because he both plays good defense and is a good base runner which boosts his value tremendously and makes him more playable.

It's hard to believe, (but each to their own), that someone would spend $18K, on August 13th no less, on an Aaron Judge card.

I can only assume this $18K from the buyer was like having $18.00 dollars in our pockets.

no kiddin, If I had the $$$$ to spend $18k on one card it better say Ruth, Mantle or Cobb on it!

If any of you feel the need to blow 18K,(Or 9K or even 3K, maybe even less) I'll happily make you a nice piece of furniture that with decent care your kids kids can use.

Heck, for 18K I can have the CNC router carve Judge into it too.

As we speak, the Yankees Manager just announced that he was going to bench Judge for a few games.....
