Rookie Cards Are OVERRATED—Baseball Card Hot Takes
Rookie Cards are Synonymous with baseball cards. Rookie cards are the first card of a player released during the first year of their professional career. Historically, these cards are extremely sought after and extremely expensive. In this episode of baseball card hot takes, a viewer disagrees and thinks that rookie cards are actually OVERRATED. In this video I share my thoughts on this hot take and many more!

    As a young boy I started collecting (12 yrs. old) my buddies used their cards in the spokes of their bicycles. When a 1983 Topps Wade Boggs was his rookie, period. No parallel inserts no specialty cards. I get it. Ventured into having my cards graded. With all certainty I can advise that Topps is horrible with their borders.

    Bonds cards are already expensive, pretty much only 2nd to Griffey for the era and I don't think he'll ever pass Griffey due to Griffey's likability factor. I think Bonds will get in the HOF some day. As for the Ortiz comparison, David Ortiz played the vast majority of his career and certainly all those Red Sox seasons with MLB drug testing in place. You can make the argument he got better AFTER mandated drug testing was implemented. To casually throw his name alongside Bonds is quite the false equivalence (or the hottest of your hot takes). Allllll this said, great segment.

    Someone needs to address the issue with PSA and their new slabs. The vast majority of them have what look like hairline cracks in the corners. Lots of posts on Facebook groups and PSA is stating there's no issue and it's part of their "injection molding process?" This is total BS and if that's the case, switch back to the older style or offer to repair at no cost as we already paid for the grading on our damaged slabs!

    Rookie Cards Are Overrated Is The Most Dumbest Statement I’ve Ever Heard

    • @rileyesmay
      @rileyesmay Před dnem

      To be fair, some players Rookies are just bad. I personally collect Randy Arozarena, and with the 2020 explosion, his rookie cards are just not there for me, as well as others. I have more of his high end vet cards than his rookie cards because they are well, better. That said most players rookie cards are definitely better, but I do think rookie cards are overated due to the fact the only difference is a logo, and with changes in the hobby players have as many rookie autos as they do autos the next 5-10 years, so they are pretty watered down

      @JayAintFake Again, it has some variables. If I am choosing a rookie auto with 5,000 copies so I am 1 of 5,000 collectors with the card, versus a 2nd year where there's only 500 copies of the card, it's hard to say the rookie is that much better. I have done the math with Randy Arozarena, and his rookie autos are around 10 times as printed as his equivalent autos to date. I think people get caught up in having a certain card, that they forget everyone else has the exact same card, and that their collection isn't rare or unique. Rare and unique cards historically have been the most sought after years down the road, have they not?

    Great takes as always Scottie. I do not believe Ohtani’s cards are overpriced as we are seeing a generational talent build his HOF career. The only thing that could derail the value is if he reaches the playoffs and does not have a huge impact (Which is hard to imagine). If he is the lynchpin for a Dodgers World Series win (Or multiple titles), his cards will likely go up further.
