You follow the Rangers, so what do you know about Curley Martha? I have a pink shimmer /199 of his in the box also.
Never heard of him.

Never heard of him. He's a very young prospect. It sounds like Sebastian Walcott is the next highly touted the prospect for the Rangers.

Sebastian Walcott the Rangers #1 prospect is playing for the Rough Riders. I'm gonna check him out when they come down here to play the S.A. Missions. I just checked, and Ethan Salas is the catcher for S.A. I'll definitely will be hitting up some minor league baseball the year.

I am in the Lake Ray Hubbard area probably less than an hour south of Frisco depending on DFW traffic. I have never been to a Rough Riders game but my brother goes from time to time. He is pretty much my eyes and ears for minor league talent. He has been telling me about Walcott for close to a year now so he is probably the real deal. I dont really get into the prospect part of the hobby but if its home team prospects I will try to stash away a few of their cards when I find them. So far my Walcott collection is sitting at zero but hopefully that will change with the card show in May.

I wasn't gonna get into prospects, but I ended up jumping in. If your brother knows prospects he'll probably know this guy. I pulled it last night. Huge card, I'm sending it to PSA today it will probably come back as a 9, but I really just want to get it into a slab. It could be 2k plus, I saw where one sold on ebay for 1600 raw.

Huge card, I'm sending it to PSA today it will probably come back as a 9, but I really just want to get it into a slab. It could be 2k plus, I saw where one sold on ebay for 1600 raw. I heard some chatter about him at the last Dallas card show. There were lots of people lookin for his stuff so I dont doubt thats a big card. Thats one of those cards I call a "Hot Potato Card". They can bring big money before he is called up to the majors and even bigger money right at call up. After that there is a 95% chance you dont want to be the one holding that card because it will likely never be worth more than it is worth at the time he is called up. Very few exceptions to that rule. Another name I heard alot at the show was George Lombard for the Yankees. There were lots of guys going nuts looking for his stuff in the bargain boxes and paying $1-$5 just for his base Bowman stuff. I got lucky and found a few in the quarter boxes so I picked them up. Its hard to go wrong for a quarter. LOL

Yeah, I'm selling it as soon as it gets back. You'll never go broke taking a profit. Plus I'm sure you remember Wander Franco...... I ripped a hobby box case of 2023 Bowman Chrome, and boy did i pull a bunch of his cards. The wife got mad because I threw them away. She would rather give them to kids at her work. I told her she definitely doesn't want to give these cards to kids...... a lot of guys lost a lot of money on him. I'm selling everything I pulled, And buying old cards, my next target is a Clemens RC.
