Looking for some advice
I joined a case break and I ended up with the number 3 pick. The top 3 cards pulled were Lincecum RC Auto, Matt Ryan 2 patch Auto, and a Michael Bourn 1/1 Printing Plate Auto
The next best cards were a Ryan Braun Auto, Troy Tulowitzki Auto, and a Justin Verlander Auto
If it comes down to me getting the plate should I take the plate or one of the other 3 choices.
Thanks for the input.

As Promised here is a scan of the Braun

RE: Looking for some advice
I would take the Braun Auto over the Plate, I would also take the Verlander Auto over the Printing Plate. In my opinion. The printing plate is probably the 6th best card in this break.

I agree the plate is weak next to the autos. Good Verlander autos are selling like hotcakes right now. And a Braun auto is just nice to have.

Well it really depends what autos they are, do you have scans of them (or similar cards)?

Nice choice. I defiantly would have taken any of the other 3 auto's over the printing plate.
