Ohtani CARDS are Mostly UNDERVALUED

[Fred]

Wasn't it not that long ago that Mike Trout limited cards were going vertical? What happened to those cards?

Shohei is Showtime. He's definitely an anomaly being a two way player and being effective in both disciplines. He hasn't been good enough to win a Cy Young award, but he's done pretty good on the mound.

He has almost 7 MLB seasons under his belt, of which only 4 are considered full seasons (including the current season).

What happens if Shohei hurts himself this year on in the next year or two and is laid up and no longer the same player he is today (let's hope that doesn't happen). What will the card prices be then.

Truly, how many people would pay that kind of money for a card? I'm guessing it's got to be a relatively low number. That's a lot of cash that you would only hope is someone's chump change and not part of their kids college fund or their retirement fund.

Personally, I'd rather spend my money on some nice 19th century material or other vintage cards.
