@DSifling @psa @FedEx @CardPurchaser Basically the answer is always @FedExHelp SUCKS!!! Garbage logistics company with thieving employees! I recently had a 40 Box case of 2026 Bowman Blasters go “missing” in their Memphis facility.

@FBTpod @CBSScottWhite @Roto_Frank @CPTowers Was just checking out the sleeper hitters for Week 7. No Casey Schmidt? He’s been looking pretty good and his Statcast numbers seem to back it up. He’s over performing a bit. He’s looked good though hitting out of the cleanup spot.

SlabSquatch Sports Cards@WaxMetrix·
2026 Bowman Baseball Analysis & Deep Dive Bowman season doesn’t sleep. Before the wax from Bowman Basketball even cools, Topps is already back with baseball…because apparently we’re all just supposed to reload the bankroll and keep ripping. And every year, Bowman mostly sticks to the script…at least on the baseball side. If you saw my Basketball breakdown, you know how that played out. Hobby and Jumbo carried the weight. Value and Mega, not so much. With release day tomorrow, rippers are about to find definitively that the Squatch was onto something. But Bowman Baseball has always had one wildcard… Year after year, value boxes have managed to provide…GASP…actual value. They’ve built a reputation as the budget rip that actually made some sense. Not amazing…just not lighting money on fire. This year? I’ve got some fairly definitive answers on whether that reputation survives. Hang tight, prospector. We’ll get there. Welcome to 2026 Bowman Baseball. Part 1: The Basics First, let’s talk about what actually changed…because there’s a decent amount of it this year. Hobby boxes got the Ozempic treatment. They’ve been trimmed from 24 packs of 8 cards down to 20 packs. Value boxes joined the party as well, now sitting at 6 packs of 10 cards instead of 12 cards per pack. Jumbo is a little hazy right now. Checklist sites still have them at 12 packs of 28 cards. I haven’t seen any official box rendering to confirm that, and with Bowman Basketball rolling out at 12 packs of 25 cards, there’s at least a chance baseball follows suit. For now, I’m rolling with 28 cards per pack based on data currently available. Even if that ends up being off, it won’t impact the hit fundamentals at all…just some of the base card calculations. Mega boxes also got a bit of a facelift. Instead of the usual base packs plus 2 Mojo packs setup, it looks like we’re getting 6 packs of 7 cards, with Mojo parallels mixed directly into those packs. So from an odds standpoint, we’re on solid ground for all hit calculations. The one piece I can’t fully lock in yet is the base card breakdown per player across paper base, paper prospects, and chrome prospects. I do have total base production accounted for, so once pack dynamics are confirmed, I’ll be able to dial that in pretty quickly. Pre-order took place on April 13th with the following prices: Hobby- $240 Jumbo- $520 Value boxes- $30 Megas- $50 Actual release date is set for May 13, and I would expect those prices to be a tick higher on the Hobby/Jumbo side. Part 2: Odds Sheet Autopsy Total cards in the product: 128,365,094 This. Is. Significant. Though it may not seem like it at first. Here's why: 2025 Bowman Total Cards: 152,262,136 YOY: -15.7% The crazy thing is, production of sealed product is very similar to last year. This shows the massive effects that a little trimming here and there can have on total production. Total cards by card type: Autos: 2026- 585,371 2025- 634,616 YOY: -7.8% Parallels: 2026- 10,908,836 2025- 8,343,680 YOY: +30.7% Inserts: 2026- 10,278,733 2025- 10,554,088 YOY : -2.6% Total Base Cards (Combination of Base Paper, Paper Prospects, & Base Chrome Prospects): 2026- 106,592,153 2025- 132,729,751 YOY: -19.7% Total Production by Format: Hobby- 116,412 boxes (9,701 cases) YOY: -1.4% Jumbo- 61,040 boxes (7,630 cases) YOY: +0.6% Breaker's Delight- 33,000 boxes (5,500 cases) YOY: +4.8% Value Boxes- 982,333 (24,558 cases) YOY: -10.4% Megas- 713,325 (35,666 cases) YOY: +18.9% Hit Rates: Hobby- 1 Auto, 8.5 parallels, 18.9 inserts, 3 numbered cards Jumbo- 3 Autos, 7.2 parallels, 30.2 inserts, 4 numbered cards Breaker's Delight- 2 Autos, 4.6 parallels, 1 insert, 3.6 numbered cards Value- 1 Auto per 9.9 boxes (4 Autos/case), 1.9 parallels, 5.3 inserts, 0.76 numbered cards (76% of Value Boxes should produce a # card) Mega- 1 Auto per 5.4 boxes (3.7 Autos/case), 10.3 parallels (includes 6 Mojos, 2 Lazer per box), 1.4 inserts, 0.8 numbered cards (80% of boxes should produce a # card) A couple important additions to this segment: 1) Of the total autos in the product, numbered vs unnumbered autos are split almost exactly 50% ea. 2) Non-Chrome Paper Autos are exclusive to Value boxes. Of all autos inserted into Value boxes, 55.5% are paper autos. So at a rate of ~4 autos per Value Box case, I would expect at least 2 of them to be Paper Autos. Part 3: Value Map (Pricing based on pre-order pricing for Jumbo/Hobby and MSRP on Retail formats. Breaker's Delight not included as it's generally not available to the public.) $/card: 1) Value- 50¢ 2) Mega- $1.19 3) Hobby- $1.50 $/parallel: 1) Mega- $4.64 2) Value- $17.05 3) Hobby- $28.37 $/Auto: 1) Jumbo- $173.33 2) Hobby- $240.00 3) Mega- $270.00 4) Value- $297.60 $/# Card: 1) Value- $39.47 2) Mega- $63.29 3) Hobby- $80.00 4) Jumbo- $130.00 Part 4: Let’s Play a Little Game I don’t think we have enough numbers yet, so let’s run a quick comparison. Imagine you’ve got the itch to rip, and your options are: a 40-box case of Value Boxes ($1200), or the equivalent spend in Hobby or Jumbo. (You might notice I left out Megas. That’s intentional. I just don’t think they’re good enough to be in this conversation. Yes, they dominate from a $/parallel standpoint, but that’s only because you’re getting 6 Mojos & 2 Lazers per box. So unless you’re chasing low-end, unnumbered parallels and non-1st Bowman autos, they’re going to firmly plant themselves at the bottom of the format value list.) Here’s what you could expect from ripping a near-equivalent value of each (results will vary, of course): 2 Jumbos ($1040) – 6 Autos, 14.4 Parallels, 8 #’d cards 5 Hobby boxes ($1200) – 5 Autos, 42 Parallels, 15 #’d cards 1 Case (40) Value Boxes ($1200) – 4 Autos (2 Paper, 2 Chrome), 70 Parallels, 30 #’d cards These results are pretty staggering. To be clear, it’s typical for lower-numbered variants to show up more heavily in Hobby and Jumbo. But the sheer volume of parallels and numbered cards you’re getting out of Value, over a decent sample size, is hard to ignore. That kind of volume creates a pretty solid floor for rippers of this product. Part 5: Best Formats I already laid out the case for Value Boxes. Though Value Box autos did take a step back this year (1 per 10 boxes vs. 1 per 6 last year), but let’s zoom in on where each format actually wins. For autos, nothing changes. Jumbos are still the most cost-effective path. Jumbos gonna Jumbo. For parallels and common inserts? It’s not even close. Value Boxes run laps around everything. For any parallel that exists in Value, they offer the cheapest pull rate across the board. Now, there are some exceptions. Certain Xfractors, Shimmers, and Waves aren’t available in Value. If that’s what you’re chasing, Hobby becomes your best bet and clears Jumbo in that department. Also of note, Snack Packs are a thing again in 2026. If you like rare refractors featuring ballpark eats, these are ONLY pullable from Hobby boxes and should land 1 in ~25 cases. To avoid weighing shenanigans, I would probably avoid ebay if I'm purchasing sealed hobby boxes. But let’s get to the real question… What about the nukes? As always, Topps threw some truly desirable inserts in this Bowman release: Anime, Etched in Glass, Bowman Spotlights, Crystallized, Final Draft, and the new Patchwork inserts. (And for those wondering, no GPKs here like we saw in Basketball.) Here’s where things get interesting. Almost all of these are live in Value Boxes (only exception being Orange Crystallized /25). And not only are they possible… Value is actually the most cost-effective way to pull them. Yes, even the case-hit level stuff! Outside of the ultra-rare Anime parallels (Black /10, Red /5, Kanji /5, and the Super), Value Boxes give you the best shot per dollar at hitting these. Panini fanboyss are going to hate that. “Nukes shouldn’t come from retail.” I get it. But from a pure numbers standpoint? This is a massive win for the average ripper. And honestly...I applaud Topps for that. Part 6: What Would the Squatch Do? You already know the deal…Squatch likes to rip. And this time? Squatch is ripping Value Boxes. But if you’ve been following me, you also know I like to identify products that are primed to move sealed. This is where I’ll throw in a word of caution: I don’t expect this one to double out of the gate like some of the recent hype releases. Bowman doesn’t usually work like that. The sealed market here is a slow burn. It often softens early, then gradually climbs as the top prospects start separating themselves. And I gotta say, that may be for the best. I truly don't want Bowman to double in price off the rip. If it does, it should make Value Boxes even more tantalizing because they likely won't spike in price. If you’re planning to flip, you might be waiting a while. We’ve seen this before. Even 2023 and 2024 Bowman Draft- both loaded with monster 1st Bowman checklists in hindsight- sat flat (and in some cases dipped below drop pricing) before they really started to move. So if you’re buying to hold sealed, just understand what you’re signing up for. These might collect dust for a bit, and that's ok. But give them time to marinate and you’ll almost certainly be rewarded. Overall, this is a Squatch approved product. Rip it. Hold it. Stack it. Just don’t expect a quick flip to bail you out. Part 7: Print Runs (Per Player Base Production to be added as pack dynamics become available.)
