Topps just isn't serious about being a good baseball card producer.
They're ok with being below-average from pretty much every aspect since they are the only baseball card producers and don't have to be anything more than that. It's a crying shame that they wouldn't really take advantage of exclusivity and prove that they are all the hobby needs for baseball.

Still doesn't mean there will be an auto.
Exclusive is exclusive.

Exclusive is exclusive.
If he makes the MLB he can have a card in any MLBPA set. I don't think at this point they could squeeze him into Topps Chrome but im sure theyd include him in whatever releases they could down the line. Not 100% sure of the Razor contract, but im pretty sure as far as auto exclusives go, they go out the window too once the guy is on the roster. Maybe BG can clarify.
Anyways....to ALL THE HYPEs point...I think that if somebody was going to buy up all the prospects as exclusives like Razor did in 2008 Topps would step up to the plate and do better than they did last time. They wouldn't get them all im sure, but they'd do a better job in securing a checklsit than they did in 2008. Of course, if Razor hadn't have done that....there would be no 2008 Jesus Montero chrome autos. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise? lol.
