HOME RUN DERBY LEGENDS!
-
Because of popularity, I expect the collection reward to either be Gallo or Alonso. So 11 cards, and the 12th is a collection.
They could also do a tiered collection like they did with prospects.
-
I think we have to look past just winners of the HRD like Joc
Guys who had great HRD but came up short in the final round

Like I said in a comment above, Gallo has never participated in the HRD, so a HRD card for him would be more ridiculous than the future stars IMO

A josh Hamilton would be pretty cool
With his abuse of his Daughter being relatively recent, I doubt we see him. Nor should we IMO.

I would love to see some of the Home Run Derby OGs
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_Run_Derby_(TV_series)
It’s about time we get a usable Mays.
Dude I was going to mention this but I totally forgot. It would be such a fun little drop to add just one of them into the pack
-
I’d love to see a Bobby Abreu card from when he hit like 40 in a round lol I think 2005
-
98 Big Mack or 98 Sosa would be dope

I would have to assume that
Harper
Alonso
Guerrero Jr
Schwarber
Muncy
Judge
Pederson
AcunaWould all be locks. That leaves 4 spots open.
That would be so stupid. Thats most the cards from last year. We want legends hone run derby winners, not pete alonsos which is pretty much his live series card. Garbage contact, massive power, garbage vision and garbage fielding. Yawn

I hear you, I would love to see Ken Griffey Jr, Cespides, or Tino Martinez. I just feel this is the way SDS would go on this. Yes this list is mostly the last 3 years. It's just a guess anyway. I really hope i'm dead wrong.

Cespedes needs a FB card.

The Toddfather
That would make me so happy! That HR Derby was awesome.
I loved the one in Miami, too. But if they bring back any of last season's cards, they better bring back my boy Joc Pederson.
-
So, apparently we're getting 12 of these? Well, if I had my pick of who gets one, this is how I'd do it:
If I could use just the guys SDS has rights to:
Giancarlo Stanton - 2016
Todd Frazier - 2015
Joc Pederson - 2015
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. - 2019
Yoenis Cespedes - 2013
David Ortiz - 2010
Jason Giambi - 2002
Ken Griffey Jr. - 1998
Frank Thomas - 1995
Cal Ripken Jr. - 1991
Dave Parker - 1985
Eric Davis - 1989 -
Prince Fielder would be a really crazy surprise and make everyone happy... That's why it won't happen... But I can wish.
-
Did they say if they were last year cards or will they make new cards for previous HRD winners that are in the game like Judge, Cespedes, Stanton, Frazier?
