With two days left in ’s auction, this Jasson Dominguez card is currently at $88,000.
Dominguez is batting .077 in Double-A this season, with 1 HR & 3 RBI in 39 At Bats.
Definitely taking Dominguez over a 1952 Mickey Mantle card in a PSA 4!

Must be said. Ryan Reynolds has shown nothing but class since arriving at Wrexham. Treats every opponent with the utmost respect and often reserves praise for Notts County in his interviews. Football needs more owners like him
