Product Details:

  • Player: Leo De Vries (Leodalis De Vries)
  • Team: San Diego Padres (shown on card) / Now with Oakland Athletics
  • Set: 2025 Bowman Draft Chrome Baseball
  • Card Number: #BDC-87
  • Parallel: Sky Blue Refractor
  • Type: Bowman Chrome Prospect Parallel — Retail Exclusive

Features:

  • Sky Blue Refractor finish — a retail-exclusive Bowman Draft Chrome parallel with a distinctive light blue tint, distributed only through retail product and carrying naturally constrained supply relative to hobby-only parallels.
  • Features shortstop Leo De Vries — the #4 overall prospect in baseball per MLB Pipeline and the #1 prospect in the Oakland Athletics system, acquired as the headliner in the blockbuster Mason Miller trade at the 2025 deadline, having signed with the Padres as the top international prospect of the 2024 class for a $4.2 million bonus.
  • A switch-hitting Dominican shortstop born October 11, 2006 — just 18 years old during his entire 2025 season — who slashed .255/.355/.451 with 15 home runs across High-A and Double-A, including a torrid .281/.359/.551 line in 21 games at Double-A as one of the youngest players ever to reach that level.
  • Hit for the cycle with two home runs and eight RBI in a single game at High-A Fort Wayne in April 2025 — becoming just the third TinCap ever to accomplish the feat and tying the franchise single-game RBI record in the process.
  • Graded with a 60 hit tool, 60 power, 55 run, and 55 defense on the 20-80 scale — a rare combination of contact ability, mature all-fields approach, and projectable power from both sides of the plate that scouts compare to the profile of former Padres legends Manny Machado and Fernando Tatis Jr.
  • Acquired Dutch citizenship in 2025 through his grandparents' heritage — adding potential World Baseball Classic representation for the Netherlands and broadening his international collector appeal beyond the Dominican and U.S. markets.

Why Buy This Card?

  • Retail-exclusive Sky Blue Refractors carry naturally limited supply — the retail-only distribution channel restricts the total population relative to hobby parallels, creating genuine scarcity for a top-5 prospect's card.
  • Leo De Vries is one of the five best prospects in baseball and the most valuable prospect to change organizations at a trade deadline in recent memory — the Mason Miller centerpiece narrative adds lasting collector significance to every early De Vries card.
  • Padres-era transitional cards carry cross-market appeal for both San Diego and Oakland collectors — a unique early-career window that will only exist for this brief period before Athletics-branded cards dominate his checklist.
  • A 19-year-old switch hitter with a projected 2026 MLB debut timeline — prospect cards acquired now carry maximum appreciation runway before his MLB cards hit the market.
  • Ideal for Oakland Athletics team collectors, San Diego Padres collectors, Bowman Draft Chrome Sky Blue parallel hunters, top international prospect investors, and dynasty collectors building early De Vries holdings.
  • Only one available — send your best offer or add to cart before it's gone.
