The player
STRONG PROSPECT

81 out of 100 — our all-round score from the season line, his tools against the level, and how young he is for it.

The market
Expensive

His best /99 asks $454, over the $340 that card has sold in.

What to do

Closest of his is 2025 Bowman Chrome Ethan Holliday 1st…. Priced above value.

Our take

Strong prospect, expensive market.

Ethan Holliday scores 81 out of 100 (#75 of the 7,922 we score), and the case rests on one thing: young for the level — +2.0y vs his level at Low-A — younger than 97% of the players there.

We have 1 confirmed sale of his cards in the last 90 days, but no standardized benchmark card yet, so the price side rests on whatever is listed rather than on one comparable series.

The player is not the problem here; the entry is. Waiting for a reset costs nothing while the baseball case is intact.

The thing most likely to be wrong here: thin comp evidence — 1 confirmed sale in 90 days. Treat any value here as a single data point, not a price.

The signal

  • Young for the level

    +2.0y vs his level at Low-A — younger than 97% of the players there.

  • Speed: below average

    4 SB per 600 PA — stolen bases per full season of plate appearances

  • Power: plus-plus

    .295 ISO — isolated power — slugging minus batting average, so hits that go for extra bases Better than 96% at his level.

  • Premium position

    SS — the bat does not have to carry the whole profile.

  • Plate discipline: above average

    15.1% BB — walk rate — higher means he makes pitchers come to him Better than 74% at his level.

  • What the hobby pays up for

    Big power for his level (96th percentile); SS is a position the hobby pays up for.

Why now

No catalyst right now — no promotion, no logged step change, and no measurable move in his card prices. This is a valuation-driven watch rather than a timing one.

What could go wrong

  • Thin comp evidence

    1 confirmed sale in 90 days. Treat any value here as a single data point, not a price.

  • Benchmark not checklist-verified

    His core card was identified from how sellers describe it, not from a checklist. The identity is likely, not established.

  • Asks above the sold band

    Every live card of his we can price is asking more than these have actually sold for, so today's entry is at a premium.

What the hobby pays for him

Benchmark card: 2025 Bowman Chrome 1st Auto CPA-EH — raw, base, unnumbered.

Described by 2 independent sellers — observed, not checklist-verified.

No price on this card yet

sales exist for this player, none on the benchmark card 2 copies are listed right now — asking prices are supply, never evidence of what it sells for.

This is his benchmark, not the value of any particular card in front of you — a /250 is a different market.

The card that matters

A card-quality answer, not a price one. It does not change when a seller changes their mind.

2025 Bowman Chrome 1st Auto CPA-EH

Raw base 1st Bowman Chrome Auto

The canonical prospect vehicle — every player who has one is compared on it. Identified from 2 independent sellers describing it — likely, not established.

A card is never the one to own because it is numbered. Scarcity is a modifier on a vehicle, not a vehicle — a /25 of a card nobody collects is a rarer version of nothing.

Best value right now

Where the money would go today, which is frequently a lesser card than the one above — or nowhere.

No good entry today

The closest to fair is 2026 Bowman Ethan Holliday Chrome Auto Autograph 1st Prospect CPA-EH Rockies at $308, 186% over the $104–204 that copies of it have confirmed sold in. Nothing of his is currently below its own sold band.

That card at or under $104 delivered would be at the bottom of what it has actually sold for.

What would make this a buy

  • Priced above value
  • Player not there yet
  • On his best-priced card: evidence still thin.

What is for sale right now

55 cards of his are listed · 0 of the 55 we can judge clear the investment bar. These are the 6 worth looking at, best first; the other 49 are under "The whole live market".

What he is good at

skills overall 54 / 80

On the 20–80 scale every scouting report uses: 50 is average, and every 10 points is one standard deviation. Measured against 530 hitters at Low-A — measured against real players at the same level right now — not a scout's projection of what he becomes.

    +2.0y vs his level

The overall figure averages the 4 skill rows only. The box-score row and the age row are shown but deliberately left out of it — one is the result those skills produced, and the other is not a skill at all.

The argument

skills at the 58th percentile of the cohort, production at the 91th — his results run further ahead of his tools than 94% of the players he is measured against.

The stat line is doing the selling and the skills underneath it are not carrying it. Pay for the line and you are paying for the part that does not repeat.

How this is read: his skills average 58 and his production sits at 91, a gap of -33. That gap on its own means little — an average of several percentiles always sits nearer the middle than a single one — so it is ranked against the same figure computed the same way for the 529 players at his level we hold a full profile for, where it lands at the 6th percentile.

Will he get there?

Real chance 5.9 / 10

  • hitting well — 0.952 OPS in 152 PA (not ranked against his level)

This is an ordering score, not a percentage. We hold no outcome data and have run no backtest, so “a 93% chance of reaching the majors” would be a number we made up and you then spent money on. Built on 100% of what it wants to know.

What his cards have sold for1 logged sale

Real completed sales only — nothing here is an estimate. These come from the scan: it asks eBay about listings it has already seen, and one that ends at a fixed price is recorded as a sale. That builds up over days. You can add one by hand below if you happen to know it, but you are not meant to be the price database.

Only 1 sale logged so far. We need at least two to draw a line, and about five spread over a month before the numbers mean much. Add sales you find using the button below.
