What's Buzz-worthy: I didn't really land any of the big prospects here and my Chromes felt a bit flat but this really was a pretty solid box on the base stars, Rookie Cards and insert fronts with those names you should know and then the Green card that's found one in 218 packs -- or one in 37 boxes. That's one per blaster case. As said last time, Bowman is as hot as it gets this year thanks to just a couple of guys -- and the borders are back that "everybody" says they missed the last few years so this one should be seriously considered if you find it. Those big names have box prices a bit nutty already but that comes with the territory more times than not with this brand. Jasson Dominguez, Robert Puason and Bobby Witt Jr. are three of the notable newcomers to look for here on the prospect front -- and with the release being staggered because of COVID-19 shutdown delays, there should be plenty of anticipation for everything in here, especially if you missed out on 2020 Bowman 1st Edition. If you haven't found any yet, keep looking ... it's coming and worth the rip.
