Tracking Rookie Cards For Top 100 MLB Players Right Now!

Every year, we track down the true rookie cards for Top 100 MLB players right now, after MLB Network completes their month-long release of their list. They just finished their announcement for the Top 100 MLB players for 2025, just before the start of the season, so we hunted down each player’s rookie card!

Many baseball card collectors will likely be surprised by some of the choices on this list, which means they’ll want to track down the true rookie cards for Top 100 MLB players they underestimated!

I found each player’s Topps flagship rookie card, and I listed which Topps Series those rookie cards came from in case you want to buy a blaster or hobby box to chase them!

You can skip picking up any blasters of 2022 Topps Series 2, since it’s the only release from the past eight years with zero players on this Top 100 list.
