Here's a Preview of 2022 Topps Update that I wrote.
Pena, who grew up here in Rhode Island, is also in Topps Archives.

Can't wait to add Peña to my Rhode Islanders collection alongside Rocco Baldelli.

The local SABR chapter in RI was trying to get Rocco for our November meeting. Sadly they couldn't....it'll be Jeff Plympton instead.

Here's a link to the checklist: https://www.cardboardconnection.com/2022-topps-update-series-baseball-cards
I'm a little surprised not to see any acknowledgment of what Aaron Judge did. Maybe the cards were all printed before he broke the AL home run record? Or maybe Topps is waiting to acknowledge it in series 1 2023, Thought maybe Spencer Strider would get a shoutout as well. Oh well.

Topps Update has gotten worse and worse every year as far as "updating" much of anything that happens during the season. I really wish they'd just call it Series 3 at this point. I didn't expect any acknowledgement of Judge since the cut-off for Update acknowledging anything seems to be the ASG. I do wish they'd keep the presses hot through the trade deadline though. As a Nats collector I was looking forward to actually having a Nationals RC of CJ Abrams (not to mention I'm anticipating paying a bit extra for another Juan Soto SP since he's still on the Nats here). As it stands, it looks like Holiday may offer the only Nats RC of Abrams (like with Keibert Ruiz last year).

It's only been about 3 weeks since Judge broke that team record. That doesn't leave much time to print, package, and ship a huge release like Topps Update.
-------------------------------
I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

The set has James Norwood as a Phillie (hasn't been on the team since mid-June) and Jeurys Familia as a Phillie (was released at the trade deadline). It doesn't seem like anything after the All-Star Game will be acknowledged in this set.
I embedded some YTs in the Videos section if anyone wants to see some Hobby, Jumbo and Blaster breaks

I wonder if they have figured out the issue with the backs of the cards this year.
