We’re still many months away from the 2026 Topps Chrome Update checklist being released, yet it’s already looking like this year’s Debut Patch checklist could be the most impressive one yet.
That’s a pretty strong statement, given that the 2024 list included the memorable Paul Skenes chase, along with names like Jackson Chourio, Jackson Holliday and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Plus, last year’s release included Nick Kurtz and James Wood.
But a preliminary 2026 Debut Patch checklist compiled by Baseball America shows a truly impressive group of talent. Here are just some of the top names I wrote down while compiling this piece:
- Roman Anthony
- Konnor Griffin
- Kevin McGonigle
- Munetaka Murakami
- Jacob Misiorowski
- Trey Yesavage
- Cam Schlittler
- JJ Wetherholt
- Carter Jensen
- Colson Montgomery
- Chase Burns
- Sal Stewart
- Travis Bazzana
- Colt Emerson
- Chase DeLauter (whose Debut Patch will be the first one in history to be worn in a postseason game)
That, right there, is a pretty strong list of not only top-tier baseball talent, but also top-tier chases in the hobby.
Here’s how we compiled this list: Topps’ unofficial requirement for Debut Patches in the set has always been that you made your MLB debut between June 1 of the previous year and May 31 of the current year, though inevitably there are a few stragglers who might have debuted in the last week of May and get pushed to the following year. So, this list includes every player who debuted between June 1, 2025, and May 31, 2026, in addition to the handful of players who debuted in the weeks prior to June 1, 2025, who were left out of last year’s set for unknown reasons, likely logistical.
By our calculations, there are exactly 250 players who meet those qualifications.
Per our numbers, the team with the most possible Debut Patches is the Marlins with 17, followed closely by the White Sox with 16. No other team will have more than 12. The team with the fewest possible Debut Patches are the Cubs with three.
The full list appears below, and once you’re done here, you can also check out our real-time patch trackers for the 2023, 2024 and 2025 checklists and also read my story about how I hit a Debut Patch.
