I made the first draft of this article right when the checklist came out and mentioned that guys would move around in my rankings as I did deeper dives on them. Now that I’ve finished all of my player writeups (top 10 hitters will be released tomorrow) I figured I’d update all of these PYT rankings using my final player rankings. Here’s the order in which I’d be chasing the autographs for all 30 MLB teams in 2026 Bowman Chrome.
Scoring System
1st Autograph Hitters
Tier 1 - 250 points
Tier 2 - 150 points
Tier 3 - 100 points
Tier 4 - 75 points
Tier 5 - 50 points
Bob’s Sleepers - 30 points
Other Sleepers - 20 points
All others - 10 points
1st Autograph Pitchers
Tier 1 - 100 points
Tier 2 - 75 points
Tier 3 - 50 points
Tier 4 - 25 points
Tier 5 - 15 points
Sleepers - 10 points
All others - 5 points
Rookie Autos & Non-1st Prospect Autos
Varies based on collectability of players
Remember some of these will be big $ sellers but are very hard to pull, so paying to chase them in breaks is tough and that’s taken into consideration on the point value
