Yeah, never fun getting sick Especially COVID. He's so tired. I mean being sick always make you tired, but like I don't know Yeah, the fatigue is real with that stuff though. All right, here we go hit some monsters That must have been not fun at all God send me in blue moon 99, Texas We're in Florida. She had six blankets over me and I was still show It was for real dude Ricky refractor of Valdez for the Red Sox. I remember the the first time I got it Like yeah, I had that same thing like a one-fold night. I was like shivering bad Same thing I had to like take I had to take like a shower a couple like a hot shower and like, you know tough anyway Awkward, okay to 199 pigüto for the pirates There's just four spots left in the mixer next guys or there were four spots might be lower than that now They were starting to move trout extraterrestrial talents Should get two autos in this break at nucleus devours Red Sox refractor J. Ram guardians Three to go now Matt McClain Rolling a die on the triples here unless there's a majority They'll all go to the same direction the whole break if there's a numbered one of these that needs to be Nice roll or whatever will random instead so one two three four five six. That's Houston KC, Seattle Six these all go to the right unless there is a majority otherwise another majority So somebody had the ashes and whales in that one it would go to that spot Got a wit stars in the night Yeah, there you go exactly that's seager and young That's all you're doing the the stomp. You're getting better at it Corbett Koehl extraterrestrial talent I was a good catch. That was a great catch by Ben attendee in the netting Red Sox Royals and Yankees legend Austin Riley launched into orbit second netto rookie auto Josh young rangers nice hit Back in time for the playoffs their lineups pretty dangerous man Michael Harris extraterrestrial talent excited you we got playoff baseball next week. Oh, man. Am I excited? I can see Ben He seems like a depth signing they would have he just plays like left field and hits like eight or nine does well seems perfect for that Launch into orbit is a hulia Rodriguez They're gonna sign Otani and Ben attending off season. Oh ton attendee. That's that's the that's the move Yeah, exactly Chris Taylor replacement like better than Chris Taylor at this point for sure green speckle rookie auto Corbin Carroll That's a monster hit one of 75 for the Diamondbacks. They were one of the last they're like one of the last big teams to sell to There you go Andrew M Congrats gigantic hit. Let's go all day if teams have sat that they have they have hit Big time Carol. That's a card stand card right there. Oh, man. I don't want the Braves to win again Let's go Cubs are Marlins whichever one of them makes it Who's the most who's the biggest underdog, let's go twins So the problem for the twins is they legit have no shot. I don't care how good they are. They have no shot They will they will never make it Yeah, I mean brave should win at all Got Alvarez launch an orbit brave should brave should clear everybody Number two ninety nine is a Zagranke for the Royals Yoshida extra terrestrial talents Nucleus rookie of Miguel Vargas Dodgers and a rookie refractor Ruiz for the A's Is it gonna be cloudy all day because I'm totally about that It was very foggy like I was on 429 and dude and I got here at like 730. It was I could barely see the flashing lights or the fire station when I was really yeah It's foggy Got morel with the Cubs stars in the night. Oh, Sonny gray giving up runs already Julio Rodriguez extra terrestrial talent get ready for the postseason That's weird because he was like he was He was up there with like Garrett Cole like Cy Young in season Who holds launch in orbit? I Think it's very very interesting. I think it's awesome And it makes them so freaking good, but I think the trade made sense to some level for every team involved I think the Sun's got better And I think the Blazers are a good job of Trading games you wanted to get traded and you know, they got it They got a very good center in eight and as part of it to 1.99 is freed for the Braves Yoshida I mean I would say Some baseball cards are bigger than Pokemon cards. It all depends. I mean, there's some monster Pokemon cards in some monster baseball cards Both have huge markets to Fractor Bobby Whit for the Royals it's hard to compare though because Another green coming up and it's 75. It's Vlad E for the Jays We go Jays Popularity, I don't know about popularity Pokemon. Yeah, I don't know about popularity. We have a gaming shop, too. I Would probably say Pokemon cards are more popular than baseball cards I think especially worldwide if you could if you include worldwide It's not even close whatsoever, but even in the U.S. I would say Pokemon cards are more popular than baseball cards I mean, you would have to compare Pokemon and then sports as a whole I think Honestly Yeah, more people by gaming and sports overall You could probably compare all sports cards together with Pokemon cards alone You'd probably have to compare those numbers to be honest as far as like total like quantity sold Planetary Pursuit Shohei Otani Earth You may never there's guys in Pokemon that open their packs and put hits in what do you mean like resealed packs? Oh I see what you're saying. Yeah Now we only open sealed boxes But we don't even technically late sports as it is late in gaming that doesn't late sports car doesn't refractor Shane Bieber Yeah, it's huge. It's huge Roger a lot of people especially a lot of collectors of pivoted the game Because gaming still is like was affordable. I think sports is getting back to where like, you know, it's more affordable, but I'll be one to gaming They're gonna stay there, you know Volpe rookie Stella Nova for the Yankees I Stella Nova or Julian They gotta buy stuff from Trusted stores I've had friends that have bought like Pokemon boxes that were like resealed with like fake Pokemon cards and everything Like Mercari and stuff like that Got a Rodriguez launching orbit Yeah, yeah, exactly Vaughan Got a Michael Harris a second on these stars of the night Shohei and trout. Yeah, see that's that's that's not good even with like So even with like a nucleus rookie nice Fletcher for the dime of axe So they got a couple of plastic on three like that like like us like you have to like this tops like sealed plastic is like there It's like everything if you open a case you open the case on camera and all that so Wanted an orbit is Austin Riley Last spot daytime is a mixer spot 99 99 for two Bowman chrome hobby two Bowman chrome choice a Breakers the light and two cosmic chromes Aqua to 199 is Josh Young for the Rangers. I think worth more baseball cards. Yeah, but it's totally like sold I don't think it's close Worth more especially current day cards like not if you account for like non like 90s Pokemon early 2000s Pokemon I think it's for sure Baseball in that sense, but you're also paying more for box things like that Fracture send me and so on a scale. It's you know, probably about fair Both are very healthy markets. I'll say though Pokemon and baseball at McLean Yeah, depending on the roof. I mean some of those don't even PSA 10s might even exist. I don't even know like gaudies and stuff. All right, we got an orange And it is Alejandro Kirk to 25 for the Jays like old Harris trout notani Yeah, right on number Tarzan Pokemon or fracter semi in for Texas Yeah, I think the buck should I think the bucks deserve to be favorites after that trade Aqua number to 199 is Bobby witt's Okay, see Nice numbered witt's Gunner extra trust your talent. That's true Vaughan. That's the biggest. That's the biggest the biggest difference I would say definitely not Ricky refractor is Ruiz for the A's I agree Vaughan. Yep I'll never be able to come they'll never be able to compete Benny what's better about football or baseball? Which rather have Jose burrios or Braxton burrios Neto Shohei extra trust your talents Launch an orbit of Shohei Otani got Soto stars in the night Think football does better in terms of entertainment Yeah, I mean I guess numbers wise. Yeah, I mean that's it's probably like factual I guess I prefer to watch Like a lot of other sports the football to be honest, but yeah, I think At least the United States that's just judging by the numbers alone. That's that's the case It's a kind of skewed though because there's less games. So they give me more viewers Nucleus Josh Bell. It's kind of skewed bigger stadiums all that so Launched an orbit is Rafael Devers. I think The MLB and NBA are incredibly healthy though. Like they're doing really well Especially I think the NBA is doing really really really well for entertaining. Yeah, I mean, that's that's that's an opinion. I Don't think so. I also played 75 for the Nats a CJ Abrams a lot of people think so Sockers boring. I think it's freaking awesome Bradley Green extra trust your old talents That's what I'm saying Roger. I think the pitch clock was a good innovation Nucleus of cranky for the Royals. I Don't know how people can still complain about it It's crazy to me the pros vastly outweigh the cons in the pitch block like yeah, there's some downside but Not enough to where it's like you got to get rid of pitch clock. You know what I mean? Well, he's been performing the best out of everyone on that team. It's one that is Von Grissom rookie for the Braves. I Mean, I guess Aaron judge commuter pressure. He's had a great season His stats like per game or like you like season average really close to last season Rikki refractors Alvarez for the Mets their issue was they were like, oh the young guys can play like Okay, let's put all the pressure on the young guys like we need them to actually be good rather than like Them being complimentary pieces. They rolled out there with Donaldson and like no rotation God ever stars the night he signed an extension there because he likes money and he's just gonna stay with the Yankees like There was Kosas. It's a few things but like they paid him a ton. Yeah. Yeah, exactly It's because they keep all these veterans around Vaughan and they think they can do it man Yeah, I get that too Roger But I was on board from the beginning. I was like pitch clock. Yes, let's do it As soon as I saw what was happening in the minors last year. I'm like, yep, that's it. Obviously I was skeptical but they Numbers don't lie to you games are faster. There was more runs more offense Got to 99 Sean Murphy for the eight for the Braves Sold out of the daytime guys get your spots with laying up and that's why we just went live Yeah, we're done. Yeah, that's what I mean is like outside of coal. They had no rotation Walker Nesta regressed, which was kind of predictable Don wasn't healthy whatsoever even when he was he wasn't good nucleus of Thai France for the Mariners refractor Tim Anderson They just had a horrible job of putting together a team for this year if they were actually set on making the playoffs They did a horrible job You saw what happened. You can't if you lose one player and your team your season tanks That's really bad and they lost judge in their season tanked Even with him. They're just like a totally mid team and he's like Maybe the best He's probably the best power hitter Maybe the best hitter overall maybe Hard to say Either way, you can't have that happen I don't know how to put it. You know, I mean like there's like this. I always great power hitter Oh, Kuni is a great offensive player The stolen base to be more of a factor now it kind of expands the who's good offensively Got gold the 50s Suarez for the Mariners Rikki refractor Alvarez for the Mets You know the day is not a typical right to build a decent baseball team You get guys in the line that they get on base and can hit can hit well and you get guys in the field that know how to play defense That's literally Feel like in baseball simple you just pay the best players You got the money just get the best players by the Dodgers won the NOS like every season To 99 is nested Cortez Yankees Yoshida So the Red Sox 2018 they bought all the best players and they developed the right amount Tony extra terrestrial talent Yeah, your runs up there say judge of him by a little bit Nucleus to ground for the Rangers refractor and door for the Mets judges better defender though You know that that's definitely important overall I think you scoop up the best players. They don't spend as much money anymore Comparatively as they used to they still spend a lot of money, but these other teams like the Dodgers and The Mets were owned by people that really just Have like a ton of ton of money just spend it all Think he's get out bid now He's a fine like defender, but he's slow. So like he's really He's like okay as far as like reading the ball and all that but he is literally slow So that is literally cap his ceiling big time Nucleus arise for the Marlins honestly left field and he was in his perfect for him What's a Crawford boxes right there? Perfect for him Got gold sprint launch into orbit Yeah, if you got Chasmanian devil out there, you're good Alvarez chainsaw devil dude Alvarez stars of the night Yeah, they are out signing was over 20 years ago now. We know was that oh three There's a right oh two or three There's an Andrew Vaughn Homer You get some water Yeah as the 75 Giants, it's only one pack but I gotta get a sip of water Oh for really Yeah, that's right. Yeah, three was Day day without a rod the other Florida Marlins They lost to the Florida Marlins not the Miami Marlins. I mean Marlins stink Florida Marlins had had some had some respect Launch an orbit of Peter Lonzo Florida Marlins had sick uniforms Miami's are all right I honestly think a permanent change for the Marlins to go back to their like a like an updated version of their Teal and great pinch drive jerseys would be the move. I'd probably buy one right away Yeah, did the Miami Marlins ever have detrain Josh Beckett pudger Rodriguez. Nope. That was the Florida Marlins Got sell the Nova Volpe to 199 freed wit Piguero young Grissom 99 Cortez Murphy cranky and Semian to 75 Yastremski Abrams and Guerrero It's a 50. Hey, honey, a sore as to 25 Kirk rookie auto Josh young for the Rangers only three autos in the case We had more planetary pursuits though. We had earth Shohei Otani for the angels planetary pursuit Super cool and green auto big guard here Corbin Carroll to 75 diamond backs Green spaced us congrats to the diamond backs. Thanks again everybody last baseball break coming up next
