Parallels

Essential Credentials

Similar to other year's sets, each of the 102 base cards has two Essential Credentials parallels, which are limited to an aggregate of 103 copies: Now and Future. Each Essential Credentials Now card is serial-numbered to a production figure that matches the card's sequential number, while the Essential Credentials Future is numbered to 103 minus the card number.

For example, Tom Glavine (card #44 in the set) has 44 Nows and 59 Futures (103 - 44 = 59).
