Don’t get me wrong, Robert. Trout is clearly the premier player of today’s game, and if I had cash lying around to burn, I’d probably own several of his rookie cards. I’m not disparaging anyone who does, or who invests in them. I do think the card is very high for what it is, but that’s fine.

I always consider buying modern but I still have PTSD from making my dad buy me a Leaf Frank Thomas Rookie thinking it was going to make me rich when I got older lol. Once people move on to the next player prices go down. The Wander Franco hype makes me shake my head, he may be a good player but the prices for an unproven 18 year old are crazy. Excuse me while I dig up my Brien Taylor cards
