I'd have to say my AROD '07 Home gamer(MLB & Steiner Auth). Used through the month of April... arguably one of the greatest months of his career.

I feel a little silly posting this after all the other items in this thread, but it's the best I can do. I'm not sure if it's the most valuable, but it's the item I paid the most money for. It's a Delisha Milton-Jones game worn Team USA jersey from the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.

Don't know whether it would be the most valuable, but one of my all time favorites. I know there are a multitude of great pitchers, but I was able to watch him actually pitch a few games, he was the best I ever saw. So this K55 gamer of his is special. I am partial to pitchers bats and here are three more of my favorites. Difficult to pick just one.

I think any badeball fan can appreciate these but as a cardinal fan you can appreciate these even more...awesome.

As others have noted, theres more than one type of valuable.
As far as monetary, its gotta be a tie between the Garko College World Series Gamer or the first Gamer he ever had for the Indians, worn for 1 AB in 05:


As far as an emotional value, a great friend's mother was a longtime Breast Cancer fighter. She lost a battle that she knew she was going to lose on Mother's Day. This bat was used by Garko the day she lost her battle:



Thanks for letting me share.
