About 2017 Bowman's Best Baseball

2017 Topps Bowman's Best Baseball overview, key cards and what collectors chase

2017 Bowman's Best Baseball is Topps' year-end chromium release, released December 20, 2017, combining a 65-card base of veterans and rookies with a 35-card Top Prospects subset. Its throwback hook is 1997 Best Cuts, which revives a 1997 Bowman's Best design as an insert and autograph set, alongside the Baseball America's 2017 Dean's List.

What's in the checklist

  • Base and Top Prospects: 65 base cards plus 35 Top Prospects, with Refractor, Atomic, Purple /250, Blue /150, Green /99, Gold /50, Orange /25, Red /10 and SuperFractor 1/1 parallels
  • Inserts: 1997 Best Cuts (30 cards), Baseball America's 2017 Dean's List (40), Mirror Image (20) and Raking Rookies (10), each with Atomic Refractor, Gold Refractor /50 and SuperFractor versions
  • Best of 2017 Autographs: 84 signers with Refractor, Green /99, Gold /50, Atomic /25, Red /10 and SuperFractor parallels plus Printing Plates
  • Other autographs: Monochrome Autographs (34), 1997 Best Cuts Autographs (18), Dean's List Autographs (26), Raking Rookies Autographs (8) and Dual Autographs (6)

Key rookies and prospects

Aaron Judge is card No. 1 as a rookie, joined by rookies Tyler Glasnow, Alex Reyes, David Dahl and Jose De Leon and veterans Clayton Kershaw, Max Scherzer and Jose Altuve. Top Prospects features Ronald Acuna, Rafael Devers, Victor Robles, Jo Adell, Michael Kopech and Amed Rosario. Raking Rookies covers Cody Bellinger, Andrew Benintendi and Alex Bregman, while the Dean's List autographs include Gleyber Torres and Eloy Jimenez.

Grading considerations

Aaron Judge base Refractors and Best of 2017 Autographs of the top prospects are among the cards collectors commonly consider for grading. The all-chromium stock shows surface scratches and print lines under light, and colored refractor borders make centering easy to judge. See our grading scale.
