The 2023 Topps Stadium Club was released in late January 2024. Well, yes, the product was delayed again. High quality photos are always the main theme of this brand.
Previously, I used to buy some hobby packs of the stadium club and some hobby boxes of this product. For me, the great thing about collecting this product is that you can get on-card autographs. In early February, I ordered a value box of the 2023 Topps Stadium Club. I never bought a value box of this product before, this time, I would like to give it a try.
There aren’t any guaranteed hits in a value box. However, for me, it could be cool to get some rookie cards.
Base cards: Eddie Murray, Brandon Crawford, Rowdy Tellez, Willie Stargell, Fernando Tatis Jr., Ichiro, Adam Wainwright, Alex Verdugo, Oneil Cruz, Nestor Cortes, Frank Thomas, Jason Varitek, Hideki Matsui, Cecil Fielder, Willy Adames, George Springer, Gerrit Cole, Carlton Fisk, Jimmy Rollins, George Kirby, Jackie Robinson, Teoscar Hernandez, Robbie Ray, Johnny Bench, Mitch Haniger, Clayton Kershaw
Rookie cards (5): Mark Vientos, Cade Cavalli, Michael Harris II, DL Hall, Joey Meneses
Red Foil (2): Stan Musial, Christopher Morel
Black Foil (1): Giancarlo Stanton
Beam Team (1): Adley Rutschman
Chrome (1): Miguel Vargas (RC)
Master Photo (1): Jordan Walker (RC)
Triumvirates (1): Jackie Robinson
In total, there are 40 cards in a value box. Well, I don’t find any hits in this value box. However, I did see some cool cards. For example, I like a sepia card, which is exclusive in the value box. Additionally, a Shohei Ohtani insert and a Mike Trout insert are both good. Moreover, a Miguel Vargas chrome card is interesting. Miguel Vargas didn’t have a great season last year and was sent down to the minors. It will be worthwhile to see if he can consistently play in the majors.
The most interesting thing is that I found an Adley Rutschman beam team card. I used to see some beam team cards from this product. While seeing an Adley Rutschman beam team card, I was just thinking that I got another insert. Nonetheless, when I checked the odds, I found something different. This time, beam team cards are a case hit in the 2023 Topps Stadium Club. It’s not so easy to see a beam team insert in a value box. For me, this card is the best card from this value box. And in the 2024 season, I’m looking forward to watching Rutschman’s performance.
