About

The Los Angeles Angels drafted Mike Trout with the 25th pick in the 1st round of the 2009 Major League Baseball draft. Trout arrived in the majors 20 games into the 2011 season, where he's continuously voted in the top five of the American League MVP race.

 

In 2012, recognized as Trout's rookie season, he won the American League Rookie of the Year Award and finished 2nd in the AL MVP race. ESPN has ranked Mike Trout the number one overall player for eight straight seasons, solidifying his place as a generational talent.

 

On September 16, 2009, Bowman released 2009 Chrome Draft Prospects featuring a 220 card set. The set remains worthy among collectors primarily due to Mike Trout's rookie card, which is serial-numbered to /500. Our Mike Trout Refractor card received a BGS 9.5 for condition and a BGS 10 for Trout's signature. As Mike Trout remains the most prominent baseball player on the planet, the demand for his rookie cards continues to be strong.


Highlights

Thesis
If you’re a fan of baseball, you’re no stranger to the name Mike Trout, the Los Angeles Angels center-fielder who is currently ranked as the #1 player in the MLB. For many, he is considered to be the best modern player in all of baseball. Despite not winning a World Series (yet), Trout has accumulated top accolades including Rookie of the Year, 3x AL MVP, 8x All-Star, and 8x Silver-Slugger Award recipient. In 2019, Trout signed a 12-year contract with the Angels worth $426M, the second-highest contract ever signed in North American sports--a testament to his exceptional athleticism and skill.
The Card
The 2009 Bowman Chrome Draft set produced some of Mike Trout’s most well-known cards. This refractor parallel was an insert, numbered to just 500 produced and includes his rookie autograph. Only 206 of the /500 cards have received a BGS 9.5 grade.
Recent Sales
The last sale for this card was in a BGS 9.5 for $22,800 in late October 2020. The 12-month high was $29,188 in mid-October 2020, and the 12-month low was $18,955.55 in May 2020. The 1/1 “Super Refractor” parallel of this card sold for $4M in August 2020.
Macro
PWCC tracks an index of the Top 100 sports cards, and notes a Return on Investment of 313% from 2008-2020, outperforming the S&P 500 by 178%.
Risk
Despite his current promise as a player, Mike Trout has not won a World Series. If he were to suffer an injury before doing so, or if he cannot deliver a championship win, his card market could be adversely affected.
