Just check this tweet below comparing the home run pace set by Gary Sanchez and Aaron Judge, both of the New York Yankees.

Incredible, isn’t it? Of course, Sanchez had dealt with injuries during that time but on a per plate basis, he’s hit the same average number of home runs.
So perhaps while Judge’s rookie cards are still a bit inflated by hype, there might be a good buying opportunity for Sanchez’s 2010 Bowman Chrome autographed rookie card.
Here’s an ungraded Gold Refractor of that card numbered to 50 currently going for $1,749.
A BGS Graded 9.5/10 Gold Refractor card is currently on sale here for $6,000.
Contrast that to an Aaron Judge 2013 Bowman Chrome Gold Refractor autographed card (BGS Graded 9.5/10), which costs $10,990 (click link to see posting on eBay).
