DEREK JETER'S CLEATS
The Item: Derek Jeter 2018 Topps Diamond Icons game-used cleat card (1/1)
The Price: $210.50 after five bids (with five-plus days remaining)
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This is a one-of-a-kind crazy card with the bottom of one of this future Hall of Famer's cleats embedded into the piece. These rare pulls came from a high-end brand that's loaded with nothing but hits and these are among the most-unique cards Topps has ever made. Simple as that. It will be a fun auction to watch, though for my personal tastes I might just chase a common player's cleat -- or a complete Jeter cleat. (I think it might get that kind of pricey with this auction.)

Bryce Harper's first Philadelphia Phillies baseball cards are here.

There are a pair of cards and a pair of posters available now -- and in uniform -- thanks to Topps. However, they're not via Topps Now the real-time baseball card platform. They are instead more like wall art in their style and formats.

Poster A is the blue version, while Poster B is red and gray. Alone they are $19.99 apiece via Topps.com. The cards are the same images.

Bryce Harper is headed to the Philadelphia Phillies.

The contract to come? A record-setting 13-year $330-million deal that would lock him in until age 38 and his 20th MLB season.
