“ Who chooses the players to be included in sets?! How are they always making so many cards of guys who never make it? I mean, that is basically what most Bowman products are with a dozen guys worth chasing. How does this guy get a card in this set? Maybe I'm just not up to date on my Mets "prospects" from 2012 trades. ” -pjdionne12

Might be worse that he has 224 cards listed. I wonder who has the most cards and never played in the majors.

@pjdionne - I was on a call with Topps about ten or twelve years ago as part of a focus group, and someone asked that exact question. IIRC, they said it has to do with the contracts process; agents will say "okay, we'll let you sign this guy for cards, but you need to sign these other three guys we represent too."

At least the Topps Holiday cards have an interesting look. This, as a "Holiday" set, is shabby.

Trying to think of the logic behind player selection.
