I have a buddy's birthday coming up, and we used to trade baseball cards. I think it'd be fun to get a couple packs for him to open up. Anyone know any sets out there for sale at Target, WalMart, etc that would include prospects like Baez?

I don't think he's in anything that's out this year because of the way topps does cards now. He has some cards in the past bowman draft sets and topps heritage minors tho.

Yeah if you want prospects Bowman is the way to go, but like illiniguy said you'd be better off trying to get packs from his first year. For starters the cards would be more valuable, and 2nd you know they'd be there since it's his first year and Bowman prides themselves on being the first RC of every new player.

I'm in a fantasy draft with non-Cubs fans.. Javy just went in the 19th round and 3 other guys responded in frustration. The word is getting out.

I'm definitely drafting him in my draft tomorrow and will be pretty angry if someone else takes him. Was hoping he'd last into the 20s but I might have to pull the trigger earlier just to make sure.

I made a massive trade a couple of years ago (2012) in my keeper league that included him in the haul I got. Deal was...

 

I send:

Albert Pujols

Cliff Lee

Martin Prado

 

I receive:

Brett Lawrie

Jacob Turner

A.J. Cole

Trevor Cahill

Trevor Bauer

Javier Baez

 

None of them are on my team anymore as I traded them all away or released them. Except Baez. He's not going anywhere.

I don't know if ever posted it, but when Javy was striking out every bat I had a feeling he would have a big impact on the next playoff run. :flythew:

This should be moved to the Cubs discussion forum.

 

change your av, dummy

I've argued with sneaky about Javy many times.

 

Javy is going to be amazing.

I've changed my mind this postseason on the young players in the majors I'd be willing to trade in the offseason, including Baez.

 

The answer is now "none of them."

yeah, f my Soler for Carrasco trade.

 

We'll find pitching in other ways.

I still can't believe he hit that. I don't think I've ever been so pumped up about anything in sports as much as that.... maybe Wood's home run in '03. I'm still just giddy. Good for Javy.

I bit my tongue in the game thread, but that HR reminded me so much of Wood's HR in Game 7. So glad that turned out differently.
