View sold images on eBay2018 Topps Chrome Carson Kelly RC #148
Chrome RC of the Cardinals-turned-Diamondbacks catcher. Kelly was one of the top catching prospects in baseball but found himself blocked in St. Louis by the legendary Yadier Molina. When Arizona acquired him as the key piece in the Paul Goldschmidt trade, Kelly finally got his chance — and delivered with a 2019 NL All-Star selection. An elite defensive catcher whose bat developed late.
