Yankees fans are extremely excited for top prospect Oswald Peraza to take over the starting shortstop gig in 2023, but maybe this is taking it too far.

You know what they say about Rorschach tests? Sometimes you see what you want to see? Anyway ... here's this.

For a potential Rookie of the Year candidate, Peraza actually doesn't have a ton of licensed autographed cards on the market at the moment. Most of his available signatures come on Panini products, which don't bear MLB insignias or team names -- perfect if your favorite team is New York (AL) and you love a blurred-out hat, but not great otherwise.

When he hits the bigs for good, Peraza's most valuable card will be his 2020 Bowman Chrome autograph, as is often the case for top prospects. The card can be had on eBay ungraded for between $100-200, with refractors and parallel versions selling for higher.

Or, if all of those get sold out, you can always grab this one particular Peraza autograph, being offered for $19,999 because the seller believes his autograph looks like a dong! That's also on the table.

Who wants a Yankees Oswald Peraza autographed card/NSFW doodle?

Hey, check for yourself, but looks like a stretch to us. The signature sits lower than, uh, that would, and doesn't look terribly dissimilar from Peraza's other rushed signatures -- which don't usually take a minute, minute 30 tops. Sorry, sorry, this doesn't usually happen.

Skepticism aside, the description is pretty hilarious; the seller seemingly knows nothing about Peraza, but relishes an opportunity to riff when it's presented to him (or her ... no, no, very clearly him):

"When I first saw this card--I had to own it. Is it because I'm an Oswald Peraza fan?  The brutally honest answer is that I have no idea who Oswald Peraza is, and I legit have no idea if he's even a good player.  However--what I do know is that this card is truly something special. Either Mr. Peraza is literally the funniest man on the planet, or this card is a miracle.  Oddly enough--many would say that I'm a miracle as well.  "

Or you could simply buy one of the other Peraza autographs before the shortstop blows up, signatures that don't have a juvenile meaning attached.
