2019 BC green Wander Franco - buckles2335 - 04-21-2019
Hey guys I dont buy to much Bowman Chrome but looking at sales this card is hot. What can you tell me about him?
RE: 2019 BC green Wander Franco - kerryandbeth - 04-21-2019
Only 18 years old from Dominican Republic. He had a hot 2018 in the Minors low-level (.351 batting avg.), and his 2019 campaign is average so far at A-level. Lots of potential, I guess.
For some reason, his 2018 Elite Extra Edition base auto is 3 figures, and goes up quickly from there. Maybe another Tomas (bust) or maybe another Gleyber (hit)?

Mainly his biggest pull has been that he's labeled as the next Vlad Jr. Mainly just potential hype, but he has lived up to it through the minors so far (albeit only so far as Single-A).

Oh absolutely, especially since he hasn't even played above Single-A. For his card prices to go higher then they are right now he would literally have to become superman, imo.

Traded it for a 2017 draft green refractor Acuna 9.5. How do you think I did?

LOL, the "next" Vlad Jr. ... currently, Vlad Jr. and I have the exact same amount of career hits, HR and RBI.
