2026 Topps Series 2 Trey Yesavage 1991 Relic Blue 050/150 #91R2-TY RC
Trey Yesavage's first official Topps Rookie Card — embedded with a piece of game-used jersey and serial-numbered to just 150. The 2026 Topps Series 2 1991 Relic Blue #91R2-TY lands right at the intersection of two of the hobby's biggest pulls this year: the 35th-anniversary 1991 Topps throwback insert program and the most explosive rookie debut in recent postseason memory.
The backstory earns the card. Yesavage missed the 2025 Topps rookie crop entirely due to his late-season debut , meaning collectors who were smart enough to be paying attention stockpiled his prospect cards in anticipation of his official 2026 Topps RC debut — and this is it. What he did to earn the spotlight: he recorded 39 postseason strikeouts, the most by a rookie in a single postseason in MLB history , including a 12-strikeout World Series Game 5 performance that set a new rookie record, surpassing Don Newcombe's 11 in 1949 . Yesavage is the only pitcher in MLB history to record 12 strikeouts in a World Series game while issuing zero walks.
- Set: 2026 Topps Series 2 Baseball — celebrating the 35th anniversary of the 1991 Topps design

- Parallel: Blue, serial-numbered 050/150 — the Blue Holo Foil parallel is numbered to /150 , placing it squarely in the short-print tier of the relic rainbow
- Status: RC — his true Topps rookie designation, years in the making
MLB executives voted Yesavage the prospect most likely to win AL Rookie of the Year in 2026 , and his cards are among the most actively traded in the hobby right now, with over 1,500 Yesavage cards being tracked by Sports Card Investor . A Blue /150 relic RC is the sweet spot of scarcity and accessibility — rare enough to hold real value, attainable enough to own before this window closes.
