Reviewing the 2020 Rookie Cards

 Looking over rookie cards and properly valuing them is crucial to building a good collection as I have mentioned in passing over and over again on this blog.  Today, I will look over the 2020 rookies and "rate" the value of a couple of them.  

Bo Bichette a SS for the Toronto Blue Jays is an outstanding young player who is continuing the family legacy of his father who also played in the MLB.  As a result of both factors, one day if he has the career I suspect he will have, his rookie card will spike in price.  Right now, countless of these cards are up in eBay and supply is high so it's only going for roughly a $1.  

Dylan Cease is a special one for me because I was in attendance at Guaranteed Rate Field for his MLB debut July 3rd, 2019.  I went with some friends because we all suspected Cease would become a very successful big leaguer.  Despite some early struggles, he has really started to become more successful in the early portion of the 2021 season.  I think prices of his card will only increase in value as time passes.  

The 3rd and final card I will review is much different from the other two.  Danny Hultzen  won't have any more cards made after him, despite it looking much different in the early 2010's.  Drafted early in the 1st round of 2011 by the Seattle Mariners, he looked primed for greatness.  However many injuries and minor league stops later, he made his long awaited MLB debut 9 years later in 2019 for the Cubs as a 29 rookie.  He threw 3.1 innings and then retired following another year in the minors in 2020.  Some players careers take very interesting paths and Hultzen is one of those.
