Tim Beckham thought?

ryan92s · 07-20-2008, 07:45 PM

Alan I know a lot has to go into these things so this is just a thought and maybe there should be a seperate thread for things like this but I decided to post this here because it involves signings... anyway I know Tim is currently at Princeton which is rookie ball... also from what I hear he is very hard in-person and personalizes everything already. Anyway my thought was to maybe contact the agent (whoever he is) about having something with Beckham. So far I haven't seen anything of his yet and I figure mind as well go after him early before his prices keep going up as he keeps moving up. I think there would be a TON of interest here as well as other sites it could be posted on and for a fairly good rate I think people would def. consider it especially with him already becoming tough before the age of 20. Thanks for reading this Alan and if you want to delete this go ahead but just a thought

Probably a good idea, but I would like for him to have a card besides the AFLAC first.

I'm waiting for the Razor cards to come out.

He is exclusive with Razor if I'm not mistaken.

Razor did sign him to an exclusive deal, they grabbed some other top draft picks away from Topps and Donruss, too.

so Beckham, Skipworth, & Havens will ONLY be in "Razor" cards for the next 3 years or until they make the bigs?

mrmain18 · 07-21-2008, 03:20 PM

What does this mean for Just Minors with Scott Jordan jumping ship?

They will have cards with Bowman, but they will not have autographs or memoribilia. Just like A-Rod had a deal with Topps, yet they still put out Upper Deck cards, he just had his autographs and memoribilia with Topps. This angered the prospectors because they live and die with Bowman & Bowman Chrome, with no big shot DP's having autographs in the set, it makes it worthless to them.

I don't think so. I believe the deal is exclusive for base cards as well. Those guys won't be in anything but Razor. Topps signs players to individual deals for trading cards, and none of these guys fall under the MLBPA to allow them into the set on other grounds.

Actually, you are right. I read the website the day they signed him and it just listed autographs, but I guess alot of people asked them and they updated it. I know on BMB, everyone thought that he would have an Elite and BDP/BCDP, but they were told otherwise later that day.

BDP is going to take a huge hit then.
