2023 Topps Bowman Sapphire Edition Baseball Checklist

2023 Bowman Sapphire Edition is a prospect-only release that reprints the 2023 Bowman Chrome Prospects checklist in Sapphire chrome. Released May 19, 2023, it has 150 Sapphire Chrome Prospects and a 29-card autograph set, each with a short numbered rainbow ending at Padparadscha 1/1.

What's in the checklist

• Sapphire Chrome Prospects: 150 cards (BCP-1 to BCP-150) with Green /60, Aqua /55, Orange /50, Purple /25, Red /10 and Padparadscha 1/1 parallels
• Sapphire Chrome Prospect Autographs: 29 on-card signers (BSPA codes) paralleled in Aqua /99, Green /50, Orange /25, Purple /10, Red /5 and Padparadscha 1/1

Key prospects

The base checklist opens with Zack Gelof, Justin Crawford, Daniel Susac, Cole Young, Ryan Clifford and Moises Ballesteros. The autograph list is built around 2022 first-round picks such as Druw Jones, Elijah Green, Brooks Lee, Cam Collier and Jacob Berry, plus Edouard Julien and Hao Yu Lee.

Grading considerations

Autographs of Druw Jones and Elijah Green and the Red /10 and Padparadscha prospect parallels are among the cards collectors commonly consider for grading. Sapphire chrome shows surface scratches and fingerprints easily, and autograph cards should be checked for ink smudging on the signature area. See our pricing.
