1998 Topps Scott Hatteberg Devil Rays Inaugural #228 value & prices

The 1998 Topps Scott Hatteberg Devil Rays Inaugural #228 is a Baseball card (Devil Rays Inaugural parallel) released in 1998. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $1.50.

An ungraded copy is worth around $1.50, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $23.60 and a pristine BGS 10 around $31.00. That's roughly a 16× premium for a gem-mint copy over raw — one of the clearest signals that condition-sensitive buyers dominate this card's market.

Is it worth grading?

The spread between raw ($1.50) and top-graded ($23.60) copies is fairly tight, so grading this card only makes financial sense for truly flawless copies — or for collectors who simply prefer slabbed cards for protection and display.
