He moved through Pittsburgh, to the Houston Astros where he had arguably the best statistical season a pitcher has produced in the modern game (2019: 20-5, 2.50 ERA, 326 strikeouts), and then to New York where the Yankees signed him to one of the richest contracts a pitcher had received in the sport's history at the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e⚾ The 2023 season with the Yankees produced the individual award that had been building across a career built on elite velocity, a curveball that professional hitters find genuinely difficult to distinguish from his four-seamer until it breaks out of the zone, and the competitive composure of a pitcher who rises in performance as the game situation rises in importance. The American League Cy Young Award in 2023 was the formal recognition of what everyone in the game already understood. The 2013 Bowman Chrome is his earliest mass-produced Topps-licensed card – the rookie card documentation from the year he arrived on major league rosters as a Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher for the first time.

Cole was drafted by the New York Yankees in the first round of the 2009 MLB Draft, elected to attend UCLA instead, developed further at the collegiate level, and was then selected by the Pittsburgh Pirates with the first overall pick in the 2011 draft – beginning a professional career that has led to a Cy Young Award, multiple All-Star selections, a World Series ring with the Houston Astros, and a return to New York as the marquee signing the Yankees built their pitching future around. The 2009 Upper Deck USA Baseball #USA25 USA Star Prospects card is the earliest licensed trading card of Gerrit Cole's career – a pre-draft, pre-professional collectible that predates every MLB-licensed issue and captures the pitcher at the very beginning of his path to becoming the best starter in the American League.
