Rising and falling card values

[ANDYCOCHRANE]

Can someone answer me this question? I am new to this game this season so don't have anything to go on. Who has had the biggest rise or fall in card value in recent years? I was thinking about next year's card and how someone like Beltre is going to be rated? Surely he is going to be lower than 11M? Any other spectacular risers or fallers anyone can think of?

Off the top of my head I think Tony Clark, Clint Barmes, Andrew Jones, Bob Wickman & Jorge Cantu will rise significantly. Ichiro, Foulke, RJ, Beltran, Beltre, JD Drew, Thome will all fall like a rock.

Bonds (SF Leftfielder) will certainly drop. Most likely won't even be included in the set. That will have to be the biggest drop since he started the highest. :wink:

How about Small (NYY), Carlon (LAA), come back kids Griffey and Giambi and the Atlanta rookies on down side Schilling, Kolb, and YA 8)

[LMBombers]

Small, Carlon and the Brave's Rookies weren't in last year's set so they don't really count. YA won't be in next year's set so he should coun't either.

You are dead on with Schilling & Kolb going down and Giambi and Griffey going up though!

Who has had the biggest drop or rise in recent card sets? 2005 is the only year i've seen. Any other big changes from 02 to 03 or 03 to 04, or indeed, have any players just dropped off the scale altogether??

[HizzyForShizzy]

i would definitely say Thome. He'll probably be .50 next year. Can't remember what Jason Giambi was last year, but only .98 this year. Had to have been over 6 last year.

Rolen will take a huge hit.

Jae Seo should have a good card, and Dontrelle will surely be at least 6-7 mil next year.
