So I stashed the card and followed him passively through the years. Several trades, a visa hiccup (I believe), and 10 years later, lo and behold - he got his flagship RC in 2020.

Excluding the USA and AFLAC/Under Armor/Perfect Game insert subjects, can anyone else think of a player that had a 10+ year gap between his 1st Bowman and flagship RC?
And to think we thought the Strasburg mania back then was nuts. Now you can barely buy a single box of bowman for that much. Crazy how much things have changed in only 10 years
