The checklist for 2026 @Topps Chrome Update is now live on their site. Get this. The total number of Rookie Debut Auto Patches is 197 this year. Not a typo. Not joking. Good luck, breakers. I'll be sitting this one out.

One of the greatest actors of this or the Next Generation. Make it so.
Patrick Stewart, who will be remembered most for his roles as Captain Jean-Luc Picard on “Star Trek: The Next Generation” and as Professor Charles Xavier in the “X-Men” films, has died at 86. variety.com/2026/tv/news/pat…

Definitely a boon to the Arizona Fall League. @Royals
Angeibel Gomez is #ValleyBound The @Royals No. 3 prospect and @mlbpipeline No. 81 prospect will be headed to Surprise this Fall! When Gomez takes the field on opening day, he will become the second youngest player in league history at 17 years old and 291 days. Gomez hit .361 this season in 47 games played.

PINNED: The 2026 notable prospect call up thread. This will be used to add the more hyped names as they get called up to the Majors. It may not be their first ever call, but all are ROY eligible. It does NOT include those who broke camp, such as Painter, Benge, Wetherholt, etc.
