We may be in the thick of the MLB offseason, but that doesn’t mean baseball sleeps here at Candy. We are proud to introduce our 2022 Uncut Diamonds series, a collection of 40 of the game’s most notable young prospects. This is your chance to collect debut ICONs of the next generation of MLB stars, including: Arizona D-backs SS Jordan Lawlar, New York Yankees SS Anthony Volpe, St. Louis Cardinals 3B Jordan Walker, Baltimore Orioles RHP Grayson Rodriguez, and many more.
Collectors can choose from either a 3- or 10-ICON pack. There will be two different challenges associated with Uncut Diamonds, including a timed full-set collection challenge, and the brand-new 2023 MLB Call Up Challenge, which you can read more about below. And if you’re lucky enough to pull a Legendary Uncut Diamond, you may find a special audio component recorded exclusively for your ICON.
Additionally, collectors can discover a total of three unique inserts. Two highlighting 2021 and 2022 top MLB Draft picks, Henry Davis and Jackson Holliday, and the third shining a spotlight on Jasson Dominguez and Marcelo Mayer, who are sure to headline many future Yankees-Red Sox rivalry games.
It all starts on Thursday, December 8 at 1:00pm ET, with Early Access available for certain collectors 24 hours earlier.
