RE: 2012 Bowman Platinum 5 case break and contest thread [CONTEST #1 CLOSED]
Case #1, Box #4
Notable colored base:
Jarrod Parker gold
CC Sabathia gold
Dustin Pedroia emerald
Hanley Ramirez ruby
Notable prospect parallels:
Jurickson Profar refractor
Jean Segura xfractor
Notable die-cut:
Allen Craig
Hanley Ramirez
Notable Top Prospects:
Bryce Brentz
Vincent Catricala
Will Middlebrooks
Tyler Thornburg Green Refractor /399
Dylan Bundy Green Refractor /399
Eddie Rosario Red Refractor /25
Eric Arce Prospect Auto
Brandon Jacobs Prospect Auto /199
Starlin Castro Red Auto Relic /25
Grade: A+
Comments: When 3/4 boxes are assigned an A grade it’s a pretty good indication that I’m overvaluing the break. But I think it’s just a matter of degree; I’m getting value, IMO. I have no idea what the /25 Castro relic auto will bring, but I wouldn’t be shocked if it got $40-50. Terrific hit for a sticker auto. Okay, I have to go watch So You Think You Can Dance with my wife. Back later tonight.
