Nightmare

Take a look at this card.  If you stare too close it will steal your soul.

2015 Goodwin Champions Austin Meadows Auto

I own this card because Austin Meadows autos are not cheap.  He is by far the least represented of the Pirate top prospects in my collection.  He had a good bit of hype out of high school and continues to make his way through the system quickly.  He will likely be the Pirates top prospect next year and possibly a top 20 in all of baseball.  Long story short, beggars can't be choosers.  

The card does have the positive of having an on card auto.  Austin also has a very cool signature.  When it was all said in done this card cost me around $3.75.  Cheap enough to look past other issues. 

Thanks for reading.

Top Ten List

Since the Pirates are off to a rough start I figured I would showcase some prospect cards.  Here is a visual top ten list of the Pirates top prospects.  I used the Fangraphs list as the reference.  Polanco looks to be the only one on the list that can have an impact this year since Taillon is having Tommy John surgery.  The system is a consensus top 5 in most publications and number 1 in Baseball America.  Another promising thing is that many of the guys that fall 11-20 would make most teams top ten, so that is encouraging for the future.
