The card collector's view

Skenes' 2024 Topps Chrome Update #USC1 was an instant rookie chase — record-breaking PSA 10 submission numbers within weeks of release. His 2023 Bowman Chrome Draft #BD-1 is his prospect card, a key year-one auto target with /99 Refractor parallels deep into four figures. His 2024 Topps Series 2 and Bowman 1st Edition rookies are the affordable entry points. The Skenes market stayed hot through both ROY and Cy Young wins.

About Paul Skenes at FreshDCards

First overall pick in 2023. NL Rookie of the Year in 2024. Then in 2025, Paul Skenes won the NL Cy Young unanimously — all 30 first-place votes — with a 1.97 ERA that led all of MLB. He's the first pitcher in history to start the All-Star Game in each of his first two MLB seasons. The Pirates lost 91 games in 2025; Skenes was the reason 'Paul Skenes Day' became a thing in Pittsburgh. He's only 24.
