Last year we had Ge-Off Wilson, Ryan from cardcollector2, etc..@topps releases this year's Big League Influencer Inserts for 2024!
Here are the influencers: @doctorcollectible @strykerbreaks
@chicitypulls @breakswithjess @jabs_family
While it's a decent idea to potentially gain some additional interest in a low end release like Big League, I have to wonder how these individuals get picked for this.. I've heard of Jabs family simply because Sports Card Radio has talked about him in the past, but have never even heard of the others. They look to mainly be breakers..
It kind of makes sense for Fanatics to include breakers since that's what they're pushing now. Maybe just my opinion, but I can think of a lot more people who have been around the hobby for a lot longer who are more deserving of a card. Pretty sure 4/5 of these people just joined the hobby in 2020.
I guess at the end of the day it doesn't matter all that much but it does kind of show you the direction Fanatics is heading with their marketing.
