What’s actually left after eBay fees and shipping? Sold 2 baseball cards this week — breaking down the real numbers, not just the sale price. 📉 #baseballcards #ebay #Cardsky

THE STREAK LIVES! At least 1 card sold everyday since we started last week! #TheHobby #BaseballCards
Happy Week Birthday to the CandidCubs’ Cards store! Check us out today on Collx and eBay!
I’m trying it. Yesterday I “launched” my Card Store, CandidCubs’ Cards. Mainly $1 cards on eBay and Collx. I want to see if I can get momentum and turn this into a store. Check out what I have listed with hopes of more listings everyday!
Some of my Topps/Bowman pulls of late. Getting back into baseball cards has been a blast!
@sahadevsharma.bsky.social - saw this a week ago on Dansby. If I recall, Dansby mentioned he was working in the offseason to reduce swing and miss - bsky.app/profile/bbti... Looks like he has opened the stance and moved a bit
Still working on building my WhatNot store. Branding is almost done. I have listings on eBay, CollX, and WhatNot. Just want it to be a fun place to open and sell cards, chat some baseball.
Anyone do WhatNot for baseball cards? I am working on having a CandidCubs Cards store and show there. Stay tuned! Meanwhile, Happy MLB Topps Series 2 release day for all that celebrate!
Fun with numbers (not) Look at the HUGE increase of breaking balls. Bregman is getting less fastballs, and his aggression is down. He has a career 23.7% First pitch swing percentage. It’s 19% this year. He is not getting 1st pitch fastballs, and he isn’t crushing fastballs.
This trending MLB Bowman blasters are really truly loaded. Here are some of my faves.
A reminder that Lego is reviewing this to be made. Please happen.
Not saying he is perfect, but look at Ben Brown’s season numbers in that swing role. He had some rough outings and still sitting sub 2 ERA and nearly sub 1 WHIP. Under the hood looks nice too. Throw more strikes and we have something.
I joke with Rachel that when I die, drop me in the Ivy. My heart will forever be with her. My soul will be at 1060 W Addison, waiting for Spring. Happy Opening Day to all who celebrate!
Working on a new side business. I have played weddings with a String Quartet/Trio for 20+ years. Now I have an electric cello and a loop pedal. Classic standards. Pop. Rock. 1 Cello. Multiple Sound. 1 must have for your event.
It’s the Curveball sequenced with a cutter that retains its height, and sweeper with similar glove side run to the curve that generates whiffs. He had a 36.2% Whiff Rate in 2025!!! Also, 49.6% GB rate with this defense? Yes please. Good addition, Jed!
Cub Cave, otherwise known as “The Fortress of Cub-itude” as of 11/2025. Constantly changing:
Marcus Mumford is a guy I would listen sing the phone book. Is Delta the most underrated Mumford album? It’s big in scope, great instrumentation and just well produced. Check this track out. Just gorgeous.
Tweeting Pete Crow-Armstrong should be on the cover of @MLBTheShow 26 every day until it happens, Day 8. What do you think of our mock cover? #PeteCrowArmstrong #MLBTheShow #BeHereForIt
📦 Cubs Trade Deadline Grade? Jed made some small moves… but was it enough? Cubs sit 1 game back — and the front office played it safe again. 💬 Drop your grade (A–F) for the deadline & let us know how YOU feel. 🎧 Watch/listen/subscribe ⬇️ buff.ly/p4WQktn @ibwaa.bksy.social
🚨Cubs beat the Brewers 10-3! • Shota: 5 strong • Mo Baller: 3-run double in his MLB debut • Cubs now just 1 game back in the Central with 24 hours ‘til the deadline. Time to go get some reinforcements. Let’s cook, Jed. 🔥 #Cubs #FlyTheW #BeHereForIt
Only 5 IP, but a nice 15 WHIFFs for Shota Imanaga. Way better splitter location than vs the Sox. Nice to see 8Ks, as the strikeout rate this season thus far had been down. 4 Whiffs on the fastball, as the Curve and splitter do the lifting.
