Question on McCutchen Rookies...

[crosby87]

Where and when will there be mccutchen rookies? I was seeing some sort of rookie redemption thing...Mccutchen is on the list. He is likely the rookie of the year, and im not sure where his true rookie can be found...Will next years cards be his rookie?
Is his only rookies being found in the new products before next year?

05 Topps Chrome Update auto/05 Bowman Chrome base

Those are his rookies? I thought players had to have major league service time or certain service time that year to be considered a rookie?

He has tons of rookie cards from 2005.

Rookie cards are the first Major League cards made of a player.

Baseball + Rookies = ::facepalm::

I would think that 05 Topps Update would be his 1st Rookie

I don't think I really collected much in 2005. Sorry didn't really follow the hobby at all back then. I thought there was a difference between bowman rookies and rookies that are from your average cards not being bowman or chrome....Will there be another rookie card from 2009 cards then? Baseball rookies are confusing to me.

Probably in 2009 Topps Updates and Highlights - coming out in a couple months.

So just wondering, but which cards are more valuable? Early cards from rookies who aren't in the majors? Or rookie cards from players with service time?

FY cards are MUCH more valuable...

cards from before they make their major league debut

Andrew has a rookie-logo card in 2009 Topps Chrome.

cutch was a member of the last true rc class before the mlbpa rules went into effect in 2006. now that most of the 7th year rookies have been weeded out (like josh hamilton), the rc logo cards are picking up a little steam. the players 1st issue generally is the highest valued but that doesn't mean there isn't a market for rookies who made their cardboard debuts after 2006. guys like david price, travis snider, mat gamel, elvis andrus and evan longoria seem to sell fairly well despite having prior issues.

2005 are his hobby and industry recognized rookies. Anyone who says otherwise is an idiot

in a somewhat related note, do not listen to uniquebaseballcards. He is one of those aforementioned idiots

 

[thenumberonemetfan]

He also has a 2004 chrome aflac card

 

[BowmanChromeAddict]

Cutch also has cards in the 2004 Bowman Aflac set. Those have quite a nice following as well. His auto is especially nice.

Very limited (under 200 right?), only problem to some people is it's not in a pro uni.

Completely disregard this, JoshHamilton here is still smarting from completely missing out on his player's best RC :

Here are most of them.....

You're basically asking about his true marked rookies, meaning the RC Logo, right? Not his first year cards.
