He was never a rookie and his card is a draft pick. I saw your other thread. Just wondering why you make the distinction for Trout that his rookie is the 2011 Bowman and not the 2009? I'm assuming it's because he was a prospect in 2009. But Taylor and even the 1993 Jeters are the precursors to the "1st Bowman" craze. Their initial Topps cards are as draft picks.
