Why Baseball Prospecting Is Actually The Least Risky Sports Card Flipping Focus & Which Prospects Can Make You Money
Many people think buying baseball prospect cards is risky business, and ask us why we do it so much, when we're actually pretty risk averse. We think it is perceived as risky because Bowman Chrome 1st Prospect cards can be quite expensive, for players that are never guaranteed to make a dent in the big leagues, let alone become Hall of Famers.While it's impossible to predict who is going to be a Hall of Famer, it's not hard to predict who will make it to the MLB, and the amount of hype that player will have when they do. The Call-Up is not only the name of one of our favorite podcasts, but it's the key point to sell prospect cards. We break this down further as Aram Leighton from JustBaseball.com discusses the following and more with Lefty McKee and Paul Hickey...- How to anticipate when a prospect is about to get called up- Breaking down the JustBaseball.com Top 100 Prospect List- Can Kahlil Watson turn it around? How to avoid future Kahlils- How Aram found Endy Rodriguez, Elly De La Cruz and other undrafted prospects- The great Druw Jones Sports Card debate and why his swing now doesn't matter that much- Each of our individual baseball card prospecting strategies differ, so Aram breaks down some penny stocks, Paul goes with the hype train, and Lefty falls somewhere in the middle.
