As the regular season comes to an end and the playoffs begin there are some great baseball cards to have graded. Here we will discuss some of the hottest baseball cards that may get hot as a playoffs start. First we will start with the New York Yankees. They are the most popular team of the bunch and they have some of the most popular baseball cards in the industry that we believe are worth getting graded. Alex Rodriguez rookie cards are at the top of our list.
Alex has had some health issues during the season but he seems to be swinging a powerful bat. This makes him one of the top sports cards to have graded as the playoffs begin. The value of these cards would truly be based on the New York Yankees success in the playoffs.
Derek Jeter cards are also great cards to have graded. The Yankees shortstop has not had a a great season with that. He is still one of the most collected players in the hobby and if he can lead the Yankees to another World Series title his rookie cards will skyrocket. Jeter has many different rookie cards that are worth grading. His Topps rookie and SP rookie card are his most popular RC cards to date.
Ryan Howard rookie cards are also becoming very popular with collectors. The power hitting first baseman has a chance to take the Phillies back to the World Series again. His 2001 Upper Deck rookie card should be on your radar as one of the best cards to buy right now.
As the playoffs develop their are some other baseball cards that we are paying attention too. These cards include David Price cards as well as Evan Longoria cards. If the Rays have success in the playoffs they will be great cards to pick up.
