Mojobreak The Hype - A Sports Card Podcast

Fanatics had another record setting auction on their Collect Marketplace filled with Topps cards pulled on their live platform. Has the sports behemoth gained too much control of every avenue of the hobby? Doug, Dan & Cody discuss on the latest episode of The Hype!

After Dan gloats about the return of future Hall of Fame defender Aaron Donald, the guys discuss another huge weekend for Fanatics Collect and the upcoming NBA Debut Patch auction coming up this month. The guys talk about how Fanatics has made themselves into a one stop spot for all things hobby related, if they have an unfair advantage as the manufacturer, live e-commerce channel and auction house and how competitors can still get a leg up under these circumstances.

Plus 2026 Bowman Chrome Baseball is almost here, so Cody breaks down the top prospect to chase in this year's set and the guys dig in to what looks to be one of the biggest checklists for the product in years.
