Well, I gave it a shot today and picked up my first couple of modern rookie cards. After looking over a lot of stats from the past few seasons, I opted to do e-bay searches for Mookie Betts and Francisco Lindor rookie cards. I ended up picking up what I believe to be the earliest issues for each, Betts was the 2013 Panini Prizm Draft Pick base card in a PSA 10 holder for $13.00 plus $3.50 shipping. For Lindor, I picked up a raw 2009-2010 Upper Deck Team USA Triple Jersey Relic card for $5.95 w/free shipping.

Not sure what your criteria were but you did not get the earliest Betts card.

Thanks, Peter. I opted to stay away from the minor leagues produced sets, I believe that the one you mentioned was the only 2012 issue, am I correct?

It’s been just about 2 months now since my original post so I thought it would be a good time to provide an update on how my modern rookie cards collection is going. I am certainly a good deal more knowledgeable than I was previously, thanks to all that provided excellent content here for me. I have been able to take advantage of three sources, local shops (only 2 near me in Central FL), local shows (very few, average one/month) and eBay.
For a while, I was picking up the players that I wanted as long as they were either RC logo year or prior. Now I am realizing that their cards notated “First Year” almost always the Bowman/Bowman Chrome issues are the ones highest in demand amongst base cards, running hand in hand with the Topps Update RC’s for those players. The ultimate jackpots seem to be the first year Bowman Chrome Refractor Autos. Some of the best ones seem to go for $1,000+ |
