2019 Topps Update Baseball Variations Checklist and Gallery
The 2019 Topps Update Baseball variations unleash a new wave of short-printed images for set three in the overall flagship MLB product annual line.
As is normally the case, Topps left the variations off the final 2019 Topps Update Series Baseball checklist, so collectors are forced to fend for themselves. Well, not quite. That's where this guide comes into play.
2019 Topps Update Baseball Variation Odds / Set Details
The standard 2019 Topps Update Baseball Variations short print (SP) cards aren't too tough to pull. These photo variations average 1:10 Jumbo packs and 1:32 Hobby packs. This includes rookies as well as retired legends who replace current players in the base set numbering. The super short print (SSP) editions are the elusive Rookie Variation cards. These fall 1:190 packs for Jumbo and 1:622 packs for Hobby.
Both short-printed image sets offer limited autographs at staggering odds. That's 1:1,433 (Jumbo) and 1:23,508 (Hobby) for the Photo Variation subjects, and 1:1,241 (Jumbo) and 1:21,097 (Hobby) for select Rookie Variation options.
2019 Topps Update Baseball Variation Codes
If you want an extra cheat, the CODE#CMP delivers once again. Beneath the stats, the number string holds the key to identifying variations in the base set. If you check the final three digits, you will know what you have.
- Base end in #010
- SP Variations end in #055
- SSP Variations end in #057
It can take some time to track down all the images, but most should be up shortly. Please email us directly if you have new details (or missing images) to add to the guide.

Topps could have swapped out a couple if the bums the A’s have cards of like Estrada and Hundley for Rollie Fingers and Reggie Jackson. At least we would have all 5 of our HOFer’s, whose numbers have been retired, in this years set.
