If I prefer the more straight forward rookie cards...would that be also Topps Update for these guys? Not looking for fancy signed insert cards.

Looks like Acuna, for instance, has several different Topps Update cards (pink, short print, blue jersey, etc), not to mention all the Heritage version. Enough to make you loose your mind.

Thanks in advance for any insight here.

I would get this Betts, much cooler than the Update.

Thanks guys!

Just won this...so on to Acuna now, thanks Peter...then Bellinger next (so many too choose from...which one is the "flagship" rookie?).

Not sure if he's been mentioned but don't sleep on Nolan Arenado either. He's top 10 in the game right now but his rookies are still relatively cheap. Another 2013 Topps Update guy.

I think like Walker and Helton he suffers from Coors Field stat syndrome and will continue to do so.

I like Altuve -- 1445 hits and still a few days before his 29th birthday. Not a great power hitter, but pretty good power for his position.
