MLB spring training camps are now in session and its an exciting time for baseball fans. For baseball card collectors its time to start getting serious and loading up on your favorite player(s) or promising prospects. One player that I have been loading up on is Joba Chamberlain.
Joba's stats from last season are incredible: win/losses: 2-0, saves 1, ERA 0.38, 24 innings pitched and 34 strikeouts. His fastball hits over 100 with movement. I know its really early, but this guy appears to be the real deal and he's 22. Projected to be a starter this year he might end up staying in the pen and eventually becoming Mariano Rivera's replacement.
I primarily focus on rookie cards and so I wouldn't advise people to load up on Joba Chamberlain autographs but thats a personal decision. My advice is to load up on his rookie card before it rises too high. Here are a couple of custom searches I've been using to find deals: Joba Chamberlain Rookie Card or to lower your per card price and get a bargain Joba Chamberlain Lot of rookie cards.
