A Pair of Bowman Chrome Prospect Autos

A recent trade on the forums brought me a couple of Bowman Chrome Prospect autographs.  No, neither player is really burning up the league, but it was still a pretty good trade.
1.  Brett Netzer.  This is a purple refractor and features an interesting inscription.  I am not a religious man so I have no idea what that particular Bible verse means, and I do not really care enough to look it up.  But I still find it very interesting.  Netzer was a third-round pick in 2017 and played in AA in 2019.  He could find his way to the Majors as a utility man.

2.  Manuel Margot.  Margot was the primary prospect sent to the Padres in the Craig Kimbrel deal.  He has not developed into the player he was expected to be, but has been mostly a regular since 2017.  He was generally expected to show a little more speed and hit for a better average, but he is terrific defensively.

  1. Kinda fitting that this post went up on Bowman Chrome release day.
