Review Bowman Draft Picks and Prospects - M L B

Bowman Draft Picks and Prospects - M L B​

24 packs - 7 cards per pack
1 Auto in every box

I received these:

68 BDPP - Bowman Draft Pick Prospects
22 Bowman Draft Picks (nearly 50% of the 45 card set)
23 Top Prospect cards - ( a little over 50% of the 45 card set)




Same design as previous Bowman sets in 2013. This issue takes a bit of getting 'accustomed to' with 3 sets in one box and chrome versions of each.... as well.

For the Bowman collectors and the rookie card collectors and the future speculators, Bowman Draft Picks is a must buy. This is the set - once built - that is put up in the closet and pulled out in 5 years to see who made it to the bigs and who was a bust. Pure diamond mining - nothing more.

The entire set - 3 paper/3 chrome - is a total of 440 cards (if my math is correct - after all I did go to a government school - in Texas no less!) It could take a few boxes to get enough chrome for the set - but the journey will be fun. There are jumbo boxes (guaranteed 3 autos per box) that one should get a complete paper set and have a good run at the chrome set as well.

Team set builders will find this to be an enjoyable hunt. So far, I have found a number of Rays in the set.

My favorite insert is the mini Future of the Franchise card. There are also parallels - at least a blue one of these cards - #ed to 250.

Autos - on the card - as it should be -- YES!!!

Overall grade A- a little hard to collate the chrome set - but doable!

Go buy several boxes and send the Rays parallels to me!

Duane,
Great review as always. I am interested in the green refractor of Carnes for my friends Yankees collection. If it is available PLMK and I will check for Rays from the boxes we opened.
Thanks,
Trish

Hi Duane

I opened a jumbo and got a Myers orange #/250 looking for Bogaerts or Bradley.

Thanks,
Mike

Thanks for the review Duane. It's amazing how many cards are produced from these prospects sets, that the players never play for the teams they are representing. But I always have to get them if they have my team's logo on them. I have around 200 cards in my collection of players that are pictured in a Marlins uniform that never played for the big league club.
Would love the K.Bryant/C. Moran Draft Double and any of these if you pulled them.

Thanks, Brett
