Parallels

Retro/Future

All 440 cards are available in a one-per-pack Retro/Future parallel designed to evoke the 1955 Bowman set. All Retro/Futures are horizontal and printed on foil with either a 1950s wooden TV (veterans) or 2000s HDTV (rookies/prospects) frame.

Gold

All 440 cards are available in a Gold parallel, which is serial-numbered to 99 copies.

Inserts

NOTE: All inserts are printed on chromium stock. Despite this, with the exception of the 2000 Bowman's Best Previews, there are no Refractor parallels for these cards. The 2000 Bowman's Best Previews are all Refractors, but there are no "colored" Refractor parallels.

• E3 Derek Jeter
• E4 Mark McGwire
• E5 Alex Rodriguez
• E6 Chipper Jones
• E7 Todd Helton
• E8 Vladimir Guerrero
• E9 Mike Piazza
• E10 Jose Canseco

Major Power

The cards highlight some of the baseball's best home run hitters. The inclusion of the "power" hitters Derek Jeter and Nomar Garciaparra is laughable.

• MP1 Mark McGwire
• MP2 Chipper Jones
• MP3 Alex Rodriguez
• MP4 Sammy Sosa
• MP5 Rafael Palmeiro
• MP6 Ken Griffey, Jr.
• MP7 Nomar Garciaparra
• MP8 Barry Bonds
