Lindor 2015 Topps Heritage Autograph

Pretty excited about this autograph, from the 2015 Topps Heritage Set (’51 Collection). This is been on my short list of cards that I have been wanting to add to my collection since it came out. I kept missing out on it since the ones that were popping up were all certified and graded–high–and going for about triple what I was looking to spend. This one came relativity cheap, and about $100 less than Lindor was charging at the National this past weekend.

Lindor is having another great year, and as of today is hitting .291/.371/.558 with 27 HR. His defense has been a little shakey this season, but he is still able to pull of plays like this:

Right now he is far and away the best shortstop in the league. Machado could give him a run, but he defense is so bad that it really kills his argument.
