And what does that have to do with Series 2?
You seem to be missing the point that Topps follows pretty standard historical lines with how rookies are distributed in the 3 flagship series. Series 1 contains a mixture of rookies called up after the cutoff date for the previous year's update release. There is usually at least one big name rookie in series 1 if there is one. Series 2 contains the rest of the callups from the previous season (and sometimes some SPs of opening day rosterees who will have their base rookie in Update). And Update contains those who made the opening day roster through some cutoff date in May (or June in previous years). That's it. The only maneuvering done is when is the cutoff date for a player to be in either Update or the next year's Series 1, which headlining rookie from the previous season to put in Series 1, or whether to have SPs in Series 2. That's it. The rest of the rookies from the previous year are spread throughout Series 1 and Series 2, with Series 1 getting top billing priority.
So no amount of pointing out how many great rookies will be in Update will change the fact that based on history, NONE of them had a chance to have base cards in Series 2. Players who debuted this season essentially NEVER have a base card in Series 2.
