Unless Acuna pops for PEDs this week he’s a lock to win.

I could be wrong but I thought that the original concept for the Moment of the Week cards were going to be "moments" that Topps didn't do a TN card? Acuna, Albies and Cole all had cards this week! Bart did too, but at least this card being voted on is for the 241 wins/most active. Am I remembering that wrong or did they just change their minds on what this program means?

I remember this as well, and I also recall thinking that was a borderline absurd 'condition' for the concept.
So the "MOW" is going to be so good that it will win the most votes, but at the same time it will be something that didn't actually deserve a card when it happened?...

I stand corrected....the Colon card was not from this week, it was actually 2 weeks ago. Sorry for the incorrect reporting!

There is no way that Acuna is not a winner this week!

I hope when Big Sexy finally retires Topps does it right with an 11 book jersey relic Card with auto of all the teams he's been on.

Yeah, although both of these topics were discussed at the summit, I don't think they intended to ONLY do moments that didn't already have a card. They had some examples of photos they couldn't get rights to within a short timeframe which would be good candidates for MOW, but ultimately I think they meant for it to be the best moments regardless.

Is anyone else surprised that the Acuna is not 1,000+?

I'm happy to see just 830 copies but really thought with the traction of the program and it also being an RC it would have been higher.

Yeah guess people completely overlooked this one since his Living Card ended right before the Moment of the Week one did.

So true! Poor Topps Now...I feel like it’s been relegated to an afterthought in the wake of Topps Living. Ugh.

So what card goes live first? TN Acuna RC, Living Set Acuna RC, or the MOTW Acuna RC? Probably does not matter but interesting to find out which one ships first. My guess is the TN Acuna RC.

Mookie kind of made that MOTW card irrelevant today.

OP updated, we get our first official RC of the set! And strangely enough our first vertical card.
