Brendan McKay has a RC logo? Ummm.....what? Did he get called up without my knowledge?

(I do like the all on-card format.)

Topps has the inside track...after trading Archer and Snell to the Indians for Corbin Bernsen, Rene Russo and James Gammon, the Rays had no option but to bring up McKay.

I thought the RC logo was supposed to clear up any confusion of what a RC was?

Moved to December 21, week after Draft hits. It is only 2 days but a Friday before a big Holiday weekend.

Ive always liked busting BB (in January when wax prices drop). All the best vets and RCs along with some good prospects with a good amount of color and autos, makes for a fun break.

In theory, the price on this *should* drop given the normal rules of supply and demand - but we all know that those rules do not apply, so in all likelihood they will remain high for much longer than they ought to.

Bowman's Best is a great product and fun to open. I can't say that for about 95% of baseball. I'm in for a few boxes when this releases.

Anything that brings in the $$$. They don't care.

Ironically, people only started to like the RC logo after it was muddied.

On card BB autos are HIGHLY underrated in today's market.

This essentially replaced Bowman Sterling (which I loved), but features on card autos. No sitcky bandaids.

I am wondering if this is a sign of low demand and overproduction- it seems like products getting pushed has happened A LOT this year and they seem to still always have redemptions in them

I always enjoy Bowman's Best, and I liked the '90s sets -- but I hope the price does cone down a bit.

Any idea when we may see a checklist for this?

I loved the 1998 set as a kid... Really excited to see the 98'-style autos and atomics. Should be sweet!

It’s most likely overproduced, but it only got pushed 2 days. I think it was pushed because Draft was pushed, rather than because of anything regarding Best itself.

Is there anyone out there that's planning on opening a fair bit of this? Let me know if so 🍻

I think at release a lot of Best will still be unsold in the hands of distributors. It will be interesting to see if they choose to sit on it until spring or lower the price.
