Headliners are boring this year
-
Is it just me, or have almost all the headliners been super boring this year? I remember being excited by probably 80% of them last year. But this year?? Jake McGee? Michael Brantley? Matt Wieters? Pablo Sandoval? A bunch of FS lamewads? Uninteresting low-90s dorkwads? I’m just sick of all these wads. On the rare occasion I buy HL packs, I’m actually hoping for LS diamonds and not the headliners.
That is all.

There have been a few I thought "That's kinda cool", like I do like the Pablo Sandoval with C secondary, but I haven't bought any headliners since Kemp, so that should tell you my general impression. They are def boring.
-
Problem created by the FS has had a direct impact on these Headliners for me. I have little to no motivation to acquire these guys because most have been inferior to the free cards available.
-
Yup I agree there's been Matt Kemp/John Franco/Eric Gagne and Dibble that's it for me.
-
Weiters is the best catcher in the game. Flawless defense, switch hitter and his swing is like melted butter.

They're all BOOTY Cheeks.
The only players from the Market I have on my team are Pearson, Dibble and Rodney. Felix too if he counts, but he was earned, not bought.

That’s good to hear. He is also not a headliner.

Actually Weiters was a headliner a few weeks ago at the same time the ducks on a pond packs came out.

He wasn’t? I know I pulled and sold Wieters, and I was 99% sure it was from a HL pack. I don’t think it was the Ducks pack because I chose Salvador Perez in that one.

No he was a headliner for sure. There were 10 diamonds that came out that Friday. 8 ducks on a pond, the headliner (Weiters) and I believe a player program (Vizquel)

He most certainly was a headliner

Hayward has been a fun HL. Weird seeing him actually have pop in this game when it doesn't translate to real life.
-
My guess is SDS justifies it by saying "will give you 2 headliners a week instead of 1" but I agree the problem is most of these headliners have been forgettable at best. Sure there have been a few that have been fun (Kemp, Cabrera, Dibble, Franco) but I'm ready to see a 99 headliner. At least most of last years headliners were fun and some were even exciting. It's time we saw a great headliner.
-
I agree, 2 out of every 3 headliners are lame. They either need to lower the price or boost the card. But Dibble is arguably the best reliever and Matt Kemp is great
-
Schnauzer I love your face but I don’t like how many times the word wad was used in a post which includes Pablo Sandoval’s name. That Panda is close to my heart.
But other than that, yes I agree.
That is all.
-
It’s cool that different cards are getting these high overalls, like it’s nice to have a 96 Brantley that you usually don’t see. But at the same time you’re right. None of them are exciting in any way. I remember when McGee came out it was just kinda like ...what?

Wieters is available in the Ducks on the Pond pack.

Vida and Nen were good headliners.
