Why This Card Matters

Heritage backs carry one hand-written line and this one is specific: “In a five-start stretch in 2025, AJ’s ERA was 1.50. He allowed 18 hits in 30 IP. His extension off the rubber makes his fastball appear near 100 mph.” The stat grid shows his major-league total through 2024 at 7 games, 29⅔ innings, 1-0, 24 strikeouts and a 3.64 ERA, with a 2024 Gwinnett line of 20 games, 87 innings and 104 strikeouts. AJ Smith-Shawver was born 11-20-02 in Fort Worth and lives in Colleyville, Texas. Atlanta drafted him in the seventh round in 2021, 217th overall, out of Colleyville Heritage High School, where he was a teammate of Bobby Witt Jr. and a standout quarterback who twice threw for 400 yards in a game as a senior.

High Number Paper Base — Not Chrome, Not a Colour Border

Not the Chrome Refractor, Chrome Gold Refractor /50, Chrome Orange Refractor /25, Chrome Green Refractor /99, Chrome Black Border /76, Chrome Blue Sparkle or Chrome Red Border /5; and not the Blue Border, Dark Blue, Black Border, Light Blue Sparkle, Blue Sparkle, Color of the Year /76 or Bicentennial /200.
