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.

In any event, maybe it's a bit of a copout, but once there are official MLB designations I think we have to abide by those?

If the companies get to make up their own definitions I think you get to make up your own too. Officially the MLB doesn't consider you a rookie until you've exceeded rookie limits.
Fun discussion though. |
