Top 20 Chases for 2025 Bowman Chrome!
2025 Bowman Chrome launches on September 24th, 2025. As usual, Bowman chrome is heavy on the international prospects. These are often the prospects that are further away from the big leagues and are lesser known.
We'll focus this list on prospects with 1st Bowman autos in this product and we'll break it down by the chases from the 2025 international signee class and everyone else.
Let me know your feedback/thoughts in the comments!
2025 International Signees
Here are your biggest chases who signed as international free agents. I've also included their signing bonus as this is often a good sign of their potential (or at least how one team views their potential). These are generally in order of their signing bonus, not on-field performance nor anticipated card value.
