Tracking MLB prospect pricing is not an easy feat. But we have worked hard to put together a bi-weekly pricing ladder for you to reference. 2017 Bowman Draft is a great product but before you dive into singles BOOKMARK this page and use it to your advantage.
Before we dive in to the first report of 2018, let me give you some context of 2017 Bowman Draft vs 2016 Bowman Draft.
MLB Prospect Pricing Ladder
Week from 1/5 to 1/12
Overall Average Base Auto Sales Price = $32.22
Change from Week Prior = +14.7%
(Average Base Auto price for 2016 Bowman Draft (during same period) = $13.75)
Quick Thoughts:
- Adell SSP is tantalizing and absolutely skews the #’s, but it’s part of the product and adds to the value.
- Solid Performances the last 2 weeks. Over Christmas period we saw most singles take a dip. Expect to see the legit prospects to see continued increases until season starts.
- 11 Prospects over $20 and 21 over $10! That is impressive. This is a great start to a pretty well-rounded product.

Criteria
We run reports on all prospects’ Bowman Draft BASE AUTO sales for a given period. We exclude any variation, auto, insert, graded, or memorabilia prices to make sure you are getting a good representation of the actual base auto pricing. We use Base Auto prices as a baseline because they are considered by many to be the de facto standard for “base” prospect cards for MLB players.
We run a separate MLB RC price tracker after Topps Series 1 is released.
