EV is a full-print-run average built from a Wildcard editorial estimate — it assumes every chase card is still sealed, and most boxes return less than the average. We do not record when this estimate was last checked — it may have been written at release and never revisited. How we rate, and what these numbers assume →
What's in the box
- 4 hits per box: 2 autos + 2 memorabilia
- Tiered base: Concourse → Premier → Club Level → Field Level
The tier chase is real — Field Level rookies are the payout. Everything else is filler at this price.
The cards worth chasing
How to spot them in hand:
- Field Level rookies — The tier name is printed on the card. Field Level is the scarcest of the five base tiers — its serial numbers top out around /25, against roughly /397 for Concourse — so a Field Level card of a first-year player is both a rookie and the rarest base tier in the box.
Don't toss it — what gets binned by mistake
Everyone opening this box knows what the headline card is. These are the ones that go in the bulk box instead, and what separates them from a common in your hand.

🪧 Base-card tell Club, Field and Suite Level base cards no live comp
Look for: The tier name is printed on the card, and each tier has its own design. Concourse is the common one; Club Level, Suite Level and Field Level are not. The serial-number ceilings give the order away — Concourse tops out around /397, Premier /218, Club /79, Suite /49 and Field /25.
Select splits its 500-card base set into five rarity tiers that are all, technically, "base cards". Anyone sorting base from inserts puts the whole lot in one pile — but Field Level falls only about twice a hobby box and Suite Level is rarer still. The word printed on the card is the entire difference.
