MLB Network's Top 100

2021 Topps Now MLB Network's Top 100 is a 100-card set featuring, in the MLB Network's opinion, the top 100 players in Major League Baseball. The list was revealed over four nights, February 9th-19th.

Unlike most traditional Topps Now cards, the MLB Top 100 set was made available in pack form and not as individual cards. Ten-card packs would be made available for a one week period beginning February 9th, with each pack selling for $24.99. A total of 11,333 ten-card packs were sold. Randomly inserted were parallels and autographs, and as such, the estimated production run for each base card is 1105 copies.

World Series Champions

To commemorate the Atlanta Braves World Series Championship, Topps created this special 15-card Topps Now set. The set was available with or without an autograph (see below). 4300 sets were produced.

Unfortunately, the back of each card stated that the Braves won the World Series in five games and that Dusty Baker was the Braves' manager. The Braves actually won in six games, and Baker is the manager of the defeated Astros. (Did anyone at Topps actually watch the World Series?) In December, Topps stated in Twitter that those who ordered this set would receive corrected cards.

Randomly inserted into sets were the following parallels.

Blue (serial-numbered to 49 copies)
Purple (serial-numbered to 25 copies)
Red (serial-numbered to ten)
Orange (serial-numbered to five)
Gold (one-of-one)
