In our thirteenth episode, we open by picking our MLB playoff brackets and talking about two recent card fiascos - duplicate Bowman Chrome Superfractors and Jackson Merrill's trashed Panini Immaculate cards. Then we discuss players we anticipate having hot playoff runs that will result in boosted values in fantasy/dynasty leagues and the card market (44:25).
