It's complicated. The card you posted is from the regular Topps Chrome set. It is the Aqua Raywave parallel. There are a TON of parallels in that set with lots of colors and patterns. The one I posted is technically from a different product called Topps Chrome Logofractor Edition. All the parallels in Logofractor Edition have that same pattern with the MLB logo.

As you can see, it gets insane. It's why I said we may be in a junk parallel era. It's why I pick one or two that I like of each player I collect, and that's it.
