Hey everyone, mods feel free to move if this is off topic.

I used to collect a lot of cards, mainly Cal Ripken, but others as well. My son is now interested in getting into cards. I’m looking for the best way, other than eBay type sites, to acquire Orioles cards, and when he wants general packs of cards if there’s some packs that are better than others?

And if there are any members who are looking to pass along cards to a young collector please reach out.

I will keep this in mind. I live a long way from where I grew up, but at the family home I still have thousands and thousands of cards, mostly 1979-1998. Most aren’t worth that much since the market caved years ago(other than the odd Murray or Ripken rookies), so I would be happy to donate some cards.

I have a ton of Orioles cards and memorabilia, including cards, balls, autographs of all the greats (Ripken, Murray, Brooks, Palmer, Weaver, Robinson)).  It was my hobby for 20 years and mostly focused on Orioles stuff since I grew up in MD.  I asked Tony if there was a place I could offer these items as I think they would be better in the homes of active Oriole fans.  If anyone is interested in some great stuff, then please let me know as I'd love to put these items on display on this site, many of which I got from Roy Firestone.

I sent both you and @scarey1999 a note, appreciate the potential help.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      By Filmstudy · Posted

      Holliday went 1 for 2 with 3 walks on Friday night. 2024: .444 OBP, .911 OPS MiLB Career: .447 OBP, .931 OPS His OBP is EXACTLY what this O's team needs, would fill a key offensive weakness at 2nd base, help grind opposing pitching, and magnify the power up and down the lineup.  It's all dependent on his ability to throw and play 2B at a passable level. If Holliday starts to hit at the ML level, the question of who bats leadoff is over for the foreseeable future and we can go back to complaining about 1 slumping hitter or backup catcher at the bottom of the lineup.

      This. We literally have no lineup holes right now, and Mayo, Norby, Jax lurk. Any trade discussion should center around the four most essential and crucial elements to O's success for the balance of the regular season and playoffs: 1. pitching 2. pitching 3. pitching 4. damn, forgot the 4th one. oh yeah, its pitching.

      All I know is that Suárez has earned at least one more start, after today.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      Scherzer still looks like a guy who would be a nice add to our rotation in the second half if the Rangers are sellers.

      Not happening. I don’t disagree, but Kremer will be slotted in the rotation.

      I wouldn’t either but the word here is that he’s going back to rotation . Suarez supposedly the one  to be moved to bullpen . I think they should wait and see if Irvin can rebound . If Irvin can’t match Suarez’s work, then he should be moved to bullpen

      Gunnar Henderson 2024

      Yes that’s what I was asking. COC was completely off base in his comment. Judge is a great player, and apparently a nice guy. I have nothing against him, or most Yankees, for that matter, though Gil’s tats are off putting. I am expecting a bit of pro Yankee bias, but that’s ok. Also, home runs is a very glittery stat, and might sway some folks. But it should be Gunnar, at least based on the first 81.
