Topps is fixing the problem.

Collectors who find any dual-autograph card of Tampa Bay Rays outfielders Austin Meadows and Randy Arozarena in boxes of 2022 Topps Definitive Collection baseball cards will be able to get a replacement card and more from Topps, according to a letter released by the company on Friday.

"We believe the autographs are not of the players pictured," Topps said in its announcement letter (see it in full after the jump) addressing the problem. "While these types of issues are exceedingly rare, we take this extremely seriously and will work with customers holding this card to make the situation right."

In fact, Topps is going above and beyond with the fix for this -- any collector who receives the card will receive a full replacement box of the pricey Definitive release (that's around $2,000) as well as a replacement card of equal value.

Fast Five is a quick list that might offer a basic starting point for a themed collection or new focus -- five things that could be fun for a beginner or a new way to add something to your stash if you're a grizzled veteran.

This time? Five MLB rookies who should be on your collecting radar

LEADING THE WAY
Julio Rodriguez -- OF, Seattle Mariners (first MLB prospect cards in 2019; RC logo cards in 2022)
He's played in all but one of his team's games this year and he's looking like a strong candidate for American League Rookie of the Year as we're nearing the All-Star break later this month. As of today, he leads all rookies in hits, runs, homers (tied), RBI (tied), stolen bases and is second in doubles -- and at 21 he's one of the five youngest rookies in the game (all that same age) this year. What do I like here? He's showing 30-30 Club potential (13 homers, 19 stolen bases) and that would be impressive for a young rookie -- Mike Trout did it at 20 and Ronald Acuña Jr. did it at 21. That's good company to be in if he can pull it off. His RC logo cards are still to come this year for the most part while he was among the prospects on the 2021 Bowman's Best checklist, making that his RC by definition.

Keep reading for four more making up the list this time.
