Checklist

Base Set

The base set is rehash of the 2019 Topps Baseball base set. Repeating the checklist would be pointless. With that said there are a handful of changes from the flagship set.

  • Card #340 in the flagship set was Tyler Skaggs, who died of a drug overdose in the middle of the 2019 season. He's been replaced on the Sapphire Chrome set by Vladimir Guerrero, Jr. who had a short-printed and non-sequentially-numbered "gimmick" card in Series Two.
  • Card #650 (Diego Castillo) was replaced by Austin Riley.

We estimate 1025 copies of each base card were produced.

All 700 base cards are available in the following parallels.

  • Orange Sapphire Refractor (serial-numbered to 25 copies)
  • Purple Sapphire Refractor (serial-numbered to ten)
  • Red Sapphire Refractor (serial-numbered to five)
  • SuperFractor (one-of-one)

NOTE: Many of the same players who had SuperFractor parallels in 2019 Topps Chrome, also have a SuperFractor in this set.
