Seeing a number like for a baseball card is fascinating, it goes to show how far the hobby has come. Adley Rutschman’s SuperFractor (1/1) auto was already pulled and sold for $26,000. This may come down a bit but that is an amazing stat that shows the strength of this product. The product has 7 of the top 13 valued 2019 bowman product autographs by average sales. It seemed to be much more active than Chrome, and rightfully so. Garcia is selling for an average of $36 per base autograph.īowman Draft Bowman Draft hit the market in December. He’s also a Yankee so he will get value hike because of the market as well. Overall he struggled in his first AAA stint but has the tools to be a top-end starter. He posted an impressive 16% K rate in A+ but watch that number neutralize to 10 K/9 in AAA. The right-handed hurler progressed quickly in 2019 moving up two levels. Garcia is our first and only pitcher to make the list. Nova is currently selling on average of $48 per base autograph. Overall his ceiling seems more limited compared to the others, but is still only 19 and has a good system to move up in. He hits for a decent average and has an arm in the field. He may have more speed however which is still attractive to his development. Nova is very similar to our top 2 prospects on this list with a bit less power. The Astros have had a strong farm system that has built them into the strong contender they are. Canario is currently selling for an average of $70 per base autograph. He hasn’t put all 3 together yet but again his age and ability to do all 3 is appealing here. He has gained a lot of experience already at his young age, and has flashed speed, avg, and shown some power in spurts. Canario has been with the Giants for 2 years already and is 19 now. Giants seem to have a good future ahead according to what the hobby is telling us. They had Joey Bart and Luciano in Bowman, they have Canario in Bowman Chrome, and Hunter Bishop in Bowman Draft. The Giants have had strong options for all 3 Bowman products this year. Martinez is currently selling for an average of $81 per base autograph. Martinez is one of my favorite prospects in the Bowman Chrome product, I feel he has a good chance to increase in value as he progresses through levels. The one cloudy part about Martinez is his future, with Bichette and Biggio holding down the middle infield it will be likely Martinez will hope to play 3rd, but still has Jordan Groshans in the mix as well. 275 AVG, 7 HR, and 2 SB in 40 games of rookie ball. Not as strong as Marte in terms of numbers but was good enough to establish himself as one of the top Bowman Chrome prospects. Martinez had a nice initial showing in Rookie ball. Martinez has a similar allure to what Marte has with his skill set and also being a month younger than Marte. Martinez paired with Vlad Jr’s RC card made the Blue Jays a strong team to get in Bowman Chrome breaks. He has the frame to progress into a multi-tool hitter, which has the hobby of setting his value at a high level. It is also of note that he did most of this while he was 17-years-old. He was able to hit for avg, show some power, and steal bases with a. Marte showed some nice tools in his short time in Rookie ball this year. The Mariners have been highly touting the two international prospects of Marte and Julio Rodriguez as their much-anticipated future for the team. At nearly $120 per base autograph, he was 9th overall across all 3 products in 2019. Marte was the top-selling prospect in Bowman Chrome. For this article, I am going to focus on the top 5 selling prospects in each product. Mariners had the top coveted prospect, and Blue Jays with Orelvis Martinez and Vlad Jr RC were a nice value as well. In terms of top overall teams, the Blue Jays and Mariners held the best value. It also provided high valued rookie cards (RC) of Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Fernando Tatis Jr. Four prospects landed in the overall top 20 average sales between the three products, which is also with Draft currently being a bit inflated due to the recency factor. I thought it would be a bit slower with the Wander Franco craziness back in the Spring, and nobody in Chrome was the caliber of Wander or Adley Rutschman. Bowman Chrome Bowman Chrome hit the market with a flurry back in September.
