The annual prospect chaser’s delight is back. 2015 Bowman Chrome Baseball makes its debut this weekend.
Each box will have two autographed cards with all rookies signing on-card. Hobby boxes will have 18 packs of four 
cards each for around $65-70 per box while Jumbo boxes will carry 13 cards including five autographs and six prospects for around $130 at retail.
Topps announced in late August that rookie sensation Carlos Correa had signed cards during a visit to the company’s offices and they will be late additions to the product.
2015 Bowman will have some new subsets including Superfractors That Never Were, 1/1 cards showcasing past and present players who have never been featured with autographed versions.
Other new insert and autograph content this year will include:
- Series Next Die-Cuts, a “futuristic die-cut chrome insert” according to Topps, with ‘Haze’ ‘Vapor’, ‘Torrent’ and ‘Superfractor’ parallels.
Prospect Profiles Minis: “The game’s top prospects on a vertical mini design”
Prime Position Autographs: On card autographs of the best prospects at each position.
Hot Packs return with Wave Refractor cards featuring top prospects.
