When Corbin Carroll approaches the plate, Travis Scott’s “Overdue” blasts from the Diamondbacks’ Chase Field speakers. Quite fitting, as the rookie’s led a Diamondbacks squad on an overdue trip to the World Series, a place they hadn’t been since they won it with Louis Gonzalez and a band of ballers in 2001. While Carroll, the franchise’s first rook to start the All-Star Game, has put forth a Rookie of the Year-type campaign, the value of his trading cards continues to skyrocket. Let’s look at the Seattle native and superstar’s best rookie cards.

5: 2023 MLB TOPPS NOW® Card #961 Corbin Carroll On-Card Auto /99

In Game 1 of Arizona’s 6-3 NL Wild Card victory over Milwaukee, Carroll became the youngest player in Diamondbacks history to go yard in a postseason outing (23 years and 43 days). Topps commemorated the moment with the 2023 MLB TOPPS NOW® Card #961 Corbin Carroll On-Card Auto /99, which sold out like hot cakes and so did its parallels. The way it’s looking, Carroll’s name might be attached to several D-Backs records before it’s all said and done.

4: 2023 MLB TOPPS NOW® #898 Corbin Carroll ON-Card Auto-Relic /99

During the Diamondbacks’ 7-1 victory over the Giants on September 20, 2023, Carroll scribbled his name in the Major League history books by becoming the first rookie to register at least 25 homers and 50 stolen bases in a season. Topps wasted no time commemorating this historic moment, creating a special Topps Now card that not only captured the achievement but also included a game relic and Carroll’s autograph. Unsurprisingly, this unique collectible carried a steep asking price and quickly sold out on Topps’ website. With only 99 of these extraordinary cards in existence, their value has continued to soar.

3: 2023 Topps Series 1 Baseball Stars #88BA-CAR Corbin Carroll Auto

Ladies and gentlemen, we’d like to present one of Corbin Carroll’s first autographed cards as a rookie. Now his Base Rookie was kept out of Series 2, which makes having an auto in a Series 1 subset, Baseball Stars, pretty unique. With that said, this is one of the most coveted joints in the Carroll card family and quite the looker, if I do say so myself. This is a must have.

2: 2023 Topps Cosmic Chrome #CCA Corbin Carroll Green Space Dust Auto /75

The 2023 Topps Cosmic Chrome #CCA Corbin Carroll Green Space Dust Auto /75 is the most aesthetically pleasing card on this list and it’s not even close. It’s also one of his priciest cards on the open market. Not only is there an auto, but there’s only 75 of these bad boys in existence.

1: 2019 Bowman Draft – Chrome Draft Pick #CDA-CC Corbin Carroll Auto

We’ve reached the grandaddy of them all. The most coveted card in the Corbin Carroll collectible family. Now, the people love a first Bowman. It absolutely drives them crazy. No change here, as the value continues skyrocketing as he performs at an All-Star level. This is a first Bowman from a can’t-miss prospect who’s validating the hype. A quality investment.
