@bleacherreport: Matt Strahm on why he invests in Pokémon cards 😂 (via TylerBoronski/X) #MLB #baseball #pokemon #phillies

upaya :

Idk typhlosion had some allegations come out

five :

pikachu cant grape anybody

RyGuy F1 :

Peter Myers :

I had a $5k Wander Franco card

Brett :

But pikachu can’t win a cy young, charzard can’t win a World Series. All a gamble

internetsafari :

typhlosion might be one exception to this...

Chris Lee :

Pokemon card values are also random. It all depends on what someone wakes up wanting and thinking is cool now.

John Anderson :

but Diglett can't hit 50 home runs

Baaaabbbbaabaabbbaa :

That’s all true but I’m not about to get Pikachu’s auto on it.

Alexa :

Investing in Pokémon cards is safer than cars, no risk of accidents or value drops, Matt's got a point!

Priest659 :

Pokémon can’t sign cards. Or there’s no rookie charizard, that’s my only argument other than that I absolutely agree.

Mr.Almighty :

Pokemon only have a market cause nerds choose to make it valuable… if everyone just stops talking and paying attention then it will be dust, but for sports it goes on everyday and every year and whether u watch or talking about it it’s still all around us and yes someone can get injured but then come back and be the best player ever best example is Acuna.

averettesb :

Technically they’re better return than stocks

Terry Johnson :

Pikachus not gonna have a 5000 yard season

comradepink :

lmao half of me says he’s right half of me thinks this means the 2020s pokémon bubble is finally gonna pop

1n._myown_laine :

Mewtwo cant Average 34 9 n 9 tho

Chromosome.OS :

Somebody out there was betting on a pile of wander franco rookie cards

Dylan 💣 :

That my pitcher

Barracks Lawyer :

mewtwo can’t get me too’d

christian :

Faze Banks with long hair

Bobby D :

I’ve always loved Strahm. What a cool guy. Hope he comes back to KC some day!

Lebronsthirdleg :

Pikachu can’t have a 50/50 season

B :

Every hobby comes in waves. Pokémon has the hype rn it did during Covid. I’ll never invest in players that don’t have half or full careers. And also death sells I’ve learned which really does suck. Didn’t realize until Kobe died.. all his stuff went up 1000% in less than 24 hours.
