Here we go! March Madness is cooling down and the springtime breeze is in the air… Opening day is here. This means as collectors/fans we start to shift our focus to over-analyzing 🧐 our favorite MLB teams and the 100’s of prospects we think are the next Mike Trout. Starting this week we’ll start to see volume slowly ramp up toward the peak volume in June/July. This is going to get fun!
But…before we dive in to this week’s report, we want to thank our sponsor for the MLB PRICING LADDER – Big Hurt 35. If you haven’t had a chance to check out Bryan and his BH35 breaks, get over to his website or breaker page!

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 also do our best to remove the countless MISLABELED listings for players, but there is always a chance a random auction can slightly skew the #’s. We’ll keep a close eye.
We will run a separate MLB RC price tracker after Topps Series 1 is released.
