Frequently asked
What makes 2020 Select Baseball special after a 7-year gap?
This is the first standalone Select Baseball set since 2013. The brand has evolved significantly in basketball and football with bold parallels and a tiered base structure, all of which carry over here with opti-chrome technology.
How does the three-tier base set work?
Base cards (#1-100) are most common, Premier (#101-200) is the middle tier, and Diamond Level (#201-250) is the rarest. All three tiers have the same parallel lineup, so you can chase parallels across all three levels.
What parallels are in this product?
Base and Premier share parallels like Holo, Tri-Color, Zebra, and numbered versions (Red /199, Blue /149, Neon Green /99, down to Gold Vinyl 1/1). Diamond Level has its own set including Cosmic Die-Cut and Holo Die-Cut. Scope parallels (three per retail blaster) are exclusive to retail.
What are the key autograph inserts?
Launch Angle Autographs highlight power hitters like Aaron Judge and Yordan Alvarez. Rookie Signatures focus on young prospects. Rookie Jersey Autographs combine ink and memorabilia. Most autos come with their own parallel tiers.
Who are the biggest rookie cards in the base set?
Bo Bichette, Abraham Toro, and Jake Fraley are among the notable rookies in the base tier. The set also includes established stars like Mike Trout, Fernando Tatis Jr., and Ronald Acuña Jr. in the Premier tier.
How many cards are in the full set?
The base set is 250 cards total: 100 Base, 100 Premier, and 50 Diamond Level. There are also numerous insert sets and autograph subsets on top of that.
What's the difference between hobby and retail boxes?
Hobby boxes have 12 packs with 5 cards each and guarantee 2 autographs and 2 memorabilia cards. Retail blasters include three Scope parallels, which are exclusive to retail and not found in hobby boxes.
