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.

Do yall know any good places in the Fort Worth area?

Hey JCB are you in the Frisco area? 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 pulled this guy a couple of days ago. I have 12 of his base 1st bowman's, plus this one /250

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.

Roughrider games are a blast!!!

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.

I lied. I was just going through some quarter box stuff from the last Dallas show and found a couple Walcotts in there that I dont even remember getting. I dont think it has been announced yet but I am hearing some rumors from some pretty reliable sources that are saying he will be signing at the next Dallas show the first of May.

Man I just checked, I was hoping that the next card show matched up with my DILs graduation.

Do you ever buy packs or boxes? 25 Bowman released yesterday.

Only one I have. Was given to me about 15 years ago by a friend.

That damn card i sent to PSA has been graded, but they don't post the grade...... I hate all this waiting..... its like having a child...

Is that a metal card?

I don't think so, I haven't taken it apart. Looks to be signed with a gold paint pen. All the print is gold. Pretty sure it's just a card though.

Very rarely. When I do I usually dont open them. I think I bought 2 boxes of '24 Topps and just put them on the shelf unopened. I only bought those just in case Paul Skenes lives up to his hype. The only recent stuff I have opened was some '24 Halloween football. They were super cheap and I thought the Halloween theme was interesting so I bought them on impulse. They were boring. LOL

I collect alot of Aikman stuff but havent come across one of those yet.

I will warn you that high gloss cards and foil cards do not do well in those screw down slabs that dont have a recess in them for the card. Every single one I have unscrewed suffered some sort of damage from the card sticking from years of being compressed between those two slabs of plastic. If I were you I would just leave it in there forever.
