    I’d like to think they’d save this for a new Legend that has yet to be announced.

    Hank Aaron perhaps? Or do they save him for next year?

    I think it’s almost a guarantee there will be. It will likely be a new legend that hasn’t been announced also.

    There's no way they have a big legend and they are going to wait until August or September to announce it. They would be advertising him all year.

    It'll be a 99 of a card that already exists in the game.

    I don’t think that’s necessarily true, I believe Wagner was announced June, maybe July last year. Musial was a mid season drop in 18. It may be an existing Legend, but if you want to get people amped up, you get a card no one has used before.
    Also, if baseball does actually begin this year, I can see them start to do a summer re market again like they would if it were March.

    No, they started dropping hints about a Pirates legend prior to announcement, but nothing pre season.

    So that leaves the window open for a new legend correct?

    Honus was a card hidden in the game that someone found the card art for while going through the offline rosters.

    Since SDS has been telling us outright that their focus for this year is players from the 1990's and 2000's, I wouldn't be surprised if we see 40-40 Alfonso Soriano. He was a talented enough player that people of varying play styles would get excited for, but he wouldn't have been a big enough draw (such A-Rod, Randy Johnson, Pedro, Jeter, etc.) to sell units on his own merit.

    Personally, I think the biggest surprise Legend would be a return of Ichiro. The game just feels incomplete without him.

    Alfonso Soriano? Granted he would be good in this game because he's just power and speed, but he's garbage at everything else and no legend

    Doesn’t seem like there were as many new legends this year as previous, maybe there were. It seems we’ve been averaging around 30 for the past 3 years. Here is a list of the 2020 new legends https://forums.theshownation.com/topic/1836/new-legends-in-2020?_=1589159819500. This is a pre season list. Dwight Evans added, not sure who else

    I know when I think of Honus Wagner level players, Alfanso Soriano is who comes to mind.

    I do t think it would be hank Arron. Too iconic of a player to lock behind a collection wall that most will not be able to access early on. I could see someone on the Pedro / Jeter level being the guy, or a juiced version of Andruw Jones / Jorge Posada.

    Well, I agree that Soriano is no Honus Wagner, but few from the time period they are highlighting can be. Still, he was a serviceable 2B and as a LF his defense can't be too much of a liability. He had some solid if not fantastic years. 40-40 is nothing to sneeze at, and I don't think the MLB or MLBPA would approve of the only other player who achieved it being placed prominently in the game.

    It, for sure, will be a Future Prospect with fantasy stats card.
