2019 Topps Update
Good morning,
There is seemingly an insane number of hot prospects making their debut early this season. Are we going to see these rookies in Series 2 Topps or Topps Update? Topps Update will sell like hot cakes if Guerrero Jr, Tatis Jr, Kieboom, Alonso, and Jiminez are in it.

My bet is update. Isn't the slate of players for series 2 already set?

They will do Series 2 SSPs on of a couple of the guys and slap RC logos on them, even though they are inserts/variations.

I'm hoping for Topps Update. I haven't bought anything other than blasters for a while so I am saving my money so I can buy a couple hobby or jumbos of Topps Update when it comes out.

I purchased two boxes of 2018 Topps Update and was able to put together a full base set, more than half of the insert sets, and have plenty of trade bait left over.
Unfortunately, the 6 autos were not up to par for the price I paid.

Getting 6 autos out of 2 boxes of Update would've made me happy no matter who they were. Normally autos are 1 per Jumbo box and most hobby boxes are a single relic card.

Oh, I meant 6 hits (2 autos and 4 relic cards)...thanks for the correction!

RE: 2019 Topps Update
If the debuted in April than I say the usually show up in series 2 as they have 6 weeks and is a simple base cards. As for Tatis and Guerrero they probably already had them figured into the set before they played a game.

Heritage High Number might be good, too. This year should have many many hot RC cards.
I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.
