2025 Topps Baseball Series 1: Coby Mayo Rookie Cards Hit the Market
In this story:
While National's prospects Dylan Crews and James Wood get more of the headlines, an hour up the road in Baltimore, the Orioles are plenty excited about current #14 on MLB's 2025 Top 100 prospects, infielder Coby Mayo. Fresh off taking home the organization's 2024 Minor League Player of the Year, Mayo has found his way into 2025 Topps Baseball Series 1. While there are slightly fewer Mayo cards in the set than Crews and Wood, the talented prospect is one of the most highly-featured rookies making their flagship debut.

Mayo's strong 2024 season with Triple-A Norfolk has the Orioles, fans, and collectors excited about what lies ahead. In 89 games, Mayo put up 99 hits, 22 home runs, 23 doubles, and 67 RBI, to go along with an OPS of .926. Late last year, Oriols GM Mike Elias seemed to suggest there would be chances for Mayo with the big club this year. ""Coby can play third, he can play first, he can DH. I think there's a lot of opportunity for him."

Baseball execs around the league seem to like his chances of making a splash, as well. In a recent MLB.com poll, Mayo finished fourth with 14.9% of execs polled picking him to win Rookie of the Year. With a chance for playing time with a winning organization, Mayo could solidify his place in the Majors and The Hobby, sooner than later.
