@theu715 said in Fun TA3 (serious) Prediction Thread!:
I think Rays will either be Longoria, Price, Shields, or Franco. Franco is my least likely choice, but since they've released all these other 99 overall FS cards, I'd think they'd release a 99 of him too since he's the unanimous top prospect.
Any chance of other surprise legends like Carlos Pena, or Carl Crawford?
I'd love to see Pena added. That would be awesome and he was actually REALLY good for about three years in Tampa which would make a solid Prime card. Good contact, power, and defense at 1b. As for Crawford, I would've said that could be an option too, but I'm not sure now. I believe he was arrested last week on alleged assault charges from an ex-GF. I never heard anything else after I saw the story pop up online though, so don't know what came from that. As a player though, he was incredibly dynamic in Tampa.

Eh, Pena had like a .237 average at TB and a .228 lifetime (despite leading majors in HR one year and hitting 44 in another) and was pretty poor definsively IIRC
Edit: plus that mid career power surge while still being a poor hitter overall screams steroids. (But as a Sox fan I never did like that dude).
Edit 2: Unlike my boys Big Papi and Manny, who totally ... never did steroids while on the Red Sox ... ahem

2007-08 he was top 10 MVP both seasons, a Silver Slugger winner, and a Gold Glove winner. Obviously hes not an all time great, but there arent a huge amount of all time greats from that franchise to choose from.

Excuse me? Jose Conseco???
Seriously tho looking at list of Rays players I think we might actually get Scott Kazmir, he's been a flashback etc years past

I’d be down for sig series or flashback finest cards

Just give me a Bumgarner already.

Scott Kazmir has no business being a 99 though...

As I buy up 79 silvers, wondering who people realistically think will drop next week. Assuming we're looking at 94-98s and probably a lot of all stars, some guesses:
Orioles -- B Robinson (zzz) ///. Mets -- Seaver
Red Sox -- Papi if he's not 5th inning //// Braves -- Maddux
Rays -- Longoria //// Marlins -- Renteria / Nen
Yankees -- ?? //// Phillies -- ??
Jays -- Alomar //// Nats -- VladdyIndians -- Thome? //// Cubs -- Rizzo
White Sox -- Sale /// Cards -- Ozzie
Twins -- Mauer /// Reds -- E DavisAngels -- Edmonds? /// Dodgers -- Kershaw (ugh)
Astros -- No clue /// Padres -- Hoffman (100% for sure)
Mariners -- E Martinez /// D-Backs -- FinleyThe astros will have the trash can card. Padres could be hoffman or gywnn. Yankees could be Gehrig or babe or Mo

Seaver will be a 99 for sure. I think this is where we see a Jose Reyes or a special Pete Alonzo.

Yankees have the most options: Ruth, Gehrig, Rivera, Gossage, Berra, Ford, Mattingly, Guidry

Palmer would be a good bet.
