Dansby Swanson Follows the Rules

  

This card comes from 2023 series two Major League Materials set.  I wonder if this bat was used by Swanson in a Cubs game or if it was used during his Braves days.  My assumption is that it is a Braves bat.

At least you can't tell where it comes from.  I'm glad that Topps did not use a Braves jersey.  

Now the philosophical question:  In a set called Major League Material,  can you use a bat?  Is a bat "material"?  

Swanson is the 99th Cubs player that I've got a relic card from a year that they played for the Cubs and the card shows them as a Cub.   He's also the ninth on the current roster.  The checklist for series two says that there is one of these Major League Materials for Cody Bellinger.  I've never seen one listed on eBay, so I wonder if it was actually made?
