2024 Topps Series 1

2024 Topps Series 1 Baseball #141 Elly De La Cruz RC

The Elly De La Cruz hype train left the station almost a year ago. And the hype added to his actual on-field success helped Mr. De La Cruz earn an RC in 2024 Topps Series 1, one of the most renowned honors in trading cards. In 98 appearances in 2023, the world-bending phenom totaled 13 homers, 35 stolen bases, and even broke the Statcast record for fastest infield assist, dialing up a heave that clocked in at 97.9 mph. “He’s the best runner I’ve ever seen, and he has the most power I’ve ever seen. And he has the strongest arm I’ve ever seen,” said Reds teammate and multi-time All-Star Joey Votto. That’s enough of a reason for De La Cruz to make this coveted list.

2024 Topps Series 1 Baseball #60 Jasson Dominguez RC

Dominguez makes another RC list, and yes, it’s because we believe he’s the future. There’s been plenty of legendary Yankees throughout the years. But the baby-faced Dominguez holds the Yankees record as the youngest player in franchise history to hit a homer in his first at-bat — 20 years and 206 days. The legendary start to his career could lead to a legendary collection of trading cards. Dominguez’s RC in 2024 Topps Series 1 is a massive deal.

2023 Topps Series 1 Baseball #250 Adley Rutschman RC

Through two seasons, the 26-year-old Rutschman flaunts an All-Star appearance, Silver Slugger, second-place finish in AL Rookie of the Year honors, and 33 homers. Rutschman’s arguably the best catcher in Major League Baseball, and his spot as one of the top dogs at his position won’t likely change anytime soon. A Hall of Fame career equals Hall of Fame trading cards. Rutschman’s initial appearance in Topps Series 1 is a must-have.

2023 Topps Series 1 Baseball #226 Michael Harris II RC

Through two seasons with the Braves, Harris II, a metro Atlanta native, made his mark on the club, finding his way on-base with a .295 average, totaling 20 steals in each campaign and flashing the leather in the outfield. In 2022, he earned NL Rookie of the Year honors, and entering 2024, Harris II has the chance to earn his first All-Star selection and continue solidifying himself as one of the game’s young stars. He’ll be 23 in March, making him still one of the more experienced younger players in baseball.

2017 Topps Series 1 Baseball #287 Aaron Judge RC

In 2017, Judge became the first rookie in MLB history to draw more than 100 walks in a season since Al Rosen in 1950 and set the league’s rookie record for homers with 52. How’s that for an introduction? Since his legendary rookie season, the slugger has set the AL record for most homers in a season, tallying 62 in 2022, and climbed up the Yanks’ history books. As we said with Jasson Dominguez, there have been many legendary Yankees. Judge just might go down as one of the greatest.
