Gregorius has appeared in Topps flagship sets dating back to 2013.  His first Phillies baseball card, from the Topps Now Offseason set, came out in late December following his official signing with the club, and he's been photoshopped into a Phillies uniform in several other Topps releases since then.

To date, only his Topps Now Road to Opening Day card features him wearing an actual Phillies uniform, and I'm not counting his Topps Living Set card as that's a painting.

Gregorius is signed to just a one-year deal which means his only Phillies cards may feature him with no fans in the stands.  It also means that sadly he may never appear in a team-issued photo card set.
