Ok I purchased the online Beckett in baseball and am not very happy because there is nothing on this player stating RC next to his name.&nbsp; I need to know what is the true rookie year for the awesome 17 year old Catcher Bryce Harper for Southern Nevada.&nbsp;&nbsp; It list his cards but there is no RC next to any of them and I checked all of them.&nbsp; I realize hes not been drafted yet but I don't think the 2010 will be true rookies since hes got cards in 2008 and 2009 will they?&nbsp; What would be considered his true rookie is what I need to know?<br />

He doesn't have a rookie card yet because the standard hobby definition for that is a standard card in a regular issue pro set. All cards of him thus far are considered to be prospect cards or more like minor league cards because he's not a pro shown in an MLB uniform. Once drafted, he will have MLB prospect cards only in Bowman sets (which many consider to be more of an RC) but by MLB's preferences RCs are those showing in an MLB uni AFTER one has played in an MLB game.<br />

As for his first card, I'd lean toward his 2008 USA and his Aflac.<br />
