Current eBay Price: $4.00-6.00

Sure, this is not a first year card for Snyder (he has a few 2005 offerings) and, true, he is no longer a catcher (he now plays 1B). Make no mistake, though, Brandon Snyder can HIT and is one of my prime time breakout candidates for 2009. Snyder played at High-A Frederick this season and hit .315 with 13 HR and 80 RBI with 33 doubles. He fared even better in the Arizona Fall League batting .349 with 4 HR and 10 RBI in just 17 games. The crazy thing about this particular card of his is that the refractor and x-fractor autographs have been selling for not much more. Snyder will likely play most of the ‘09 season at AA Bowie, which should provide us with a good barometer for where he is developmentally. He is the top 1B prospect in the O’s organization which looks really good right now. Other bargain basement autos of his include 2005 Topps Rookie Cup ($8-12), 2006 Bowman Sterling ($5-7), and 2006 Bowman Heritage ($3-4).
