This is not buying or investment advice. I’m simply reporting the data I’m seeing. Please do your own research and make your own decisions. Just because cards have increased in value up to this point, it doesn’t mean they will continue to do so.
I’m getting all of this data from the Market Movers platform. It’s not my platform, I’m simply a user and affiliate.

Market Movers isn’t perfect; no tool is. I’ve seen instances where a graded card was being included in the raw numbers, which might cause a huge spike in value. So trust, but verify.
Following up on the previous post about 5 potential MLB breakouts, here are, not 5, but 18 PROSPECTS who could make some noise in the minor leagues, along with what their 1st Bowman Chrome Auto market looks like as of today.
Original article source is here. Please not I’m only including the players who are being tracked in Market Movers. So, just because a player mentioned in the article isn’t mentioned below, it doesn’t mean they are garbage and have no shot. It just means they aren’t in the Market Movers catalog.
I’ve also included the player’s article blurb in the mentions below, along with how they Market Movers charts look like. Things you can take away from each snapshot:
Last sale $$$ amount
365-day average
365-day trend
Will every one of these cards take off? Most likely not.
Things to consider when figuring out who you might want to chase:
What team/organization is the player in?
How have similar players fared?
What makes the player exciting?
How old is the player?
How quickly can they make the major leagues?
Some of these names should be familiar given they’ve popped up all over my hot card reports throughout last season. Others are new mentions. There is a Bryce, but not Eldridge. Some have 1st Bowman Chrome autos $30-$50, others are barely breaking $10. There are two Georges, and a handful of catchers.
In no particular order…Enjoy!
