This will always be his go to unless he ever gets traded. 1st Bowman Chrome, on card auto, in Astros uniform and multiple color variations. Just like Acuna's 1st BC auto in running pose, this will be his best RC to have in the future

100% agree with this. His prices on #/5,10,25,50 autos in Bowman Chrome are going to continue to go through the roof. The fact that he plays for a team that seems like they are going to be a perennial contender adds even more value. Sky’s the limit here...

I second this, with series one topps black being a close second.


The more affordable "must haves" are the topps gold #2020, and the rainbows from series one.

stupid question for the experts:


Can Alvarez autos be found in the regular 2018 bowman release? Or is he only in bowman chrome?

I know he also has auto's in 2018 bowman's best

I was able to pick up his Bowman's Best AU. Definitely not as nice as a Bowman Chrome but still on card so can't complain. Very curious to see how well he does in the postseason.

I thought it was only 2018 Bowman Chrome. I may be wrong.

Sorry if this has been discussed earlier, but any chance he is SP'd in 2019 Update...similar to Acuna with '18 series 2?

No. He will not have any RCs in 2019.

My guess is his 2019 Bowman cards will drop or stay stagnant in price as Series 1 approaches with high point in price coming at one month after the conclusion of Houston's season.

I have a /50 & /99 Bowman base & 4 Mojos I'll move (trade or sell) at that time.

Yeah I see the majority of the money going towards the 2020 RC logo stuff and the 2018 1st auto rcs while the 2019 stuff gets lost in the mix. Especially once everyone starts chasing the RC logo stuff next year

Agree 10000% on these points above.
His 2019 is stuff to play with until series 1 hits. I wouldn't be holding any 2019 cards when his RCs hit the market. Hell, we saw Acuna's 2017 stuff stagnate for a few months in 2018 even with good performance because of the chase for his RC stuff. Alvarez has a whole year of "in between" cards that will be largely skipped over in a few months.

Yeah but with the mass production and factory sets of series one, I don't see these boxes having near the value of update or similar sets.
