If it is a new legend, wasn’t Bonds’s swing rumored to be in the game? If it is Bonds everyone will go crazy
Like Jeter I don't see this happening. Way to much of a marketable player to sell copies.

guys, guys, guys. Relax. It's obvious it will be FS Mike Trout Jr. Baby gonna be born soon. Trout Jr. will be the first 100 overall rated card in the shows history.

And I will go broke for that card.

It's going to be a lot harder to get this year, that's what I'm guessing. To SDS' credit, they've given us a lot of way to make stubs. But remember, last year we could sell locked cards, so everyone would do that to get that 5k for a diamond they wouldn't use. Do that enough and eventually you reach Honus. This year, no such luck. To get there, I'm assuming its going to be quite the grind.
-
I could see it being Mays, Ruth, Foxx, maybe Honus again. I think there would be too much backlash if they made Griffey that hard to attain.
-
I'm trying to think who it could be that would actually make me lock that many stubs in. Of guys who we know are in the game or were last year, I'm not sure who moves that needle. My favorite hitters who don't have their top card are Ruth, Griffey, Gehrig, Ted Williams, Pujols and Big Hurt. Not sure if those would make me lock in or not (I've done some collecting to make sure I'm ready). Maybe Ruth or Griffey. The tough part is, it's the only way to this card. There is no buying it on the market. So, if you want the best card of said player, you have to go this route.
-
Maybe it’s tiered with multiple cards. Seems like a popular format this year.
-
The chase for 56? Joe DiMaggio?
Aren’t there signs in the outfield that say something to that effect? -
Maybe the Iron Horse, Lou Gehrig.

Come on guys, it's obviously not gonna be Chase Utley.
But I want to have a catch with Chase Utley.
Great show.

Babe makes the most sense to me. With how popular Jeter is there is no way they would wait this long to reveal him and I have a theory that he will be on the cover when he comes to this game. Mays could work but I don’t think they make him a collection reward again after being the LS collection last year. Honus is again possible. If it is a new legend I see it being Clemente more than anyone
Babe makes no sense at all. SDS never makes a card difficult to acquire two years in a row, Babe was difficult to get last year. He will either be TA 4 or an inning boss this year.
Pretty sure Babe will always be hard to get since he’s the best hitter in the game on stats alone. He was by far the hardest immortal to earn in 18 and obviously was a World Series reward. They don’t want to just hand his card out (which is why I wish they would release like a 90 overall hitter version of him, so some people can use a good Ruth without going for broke).

They dropped a small fortune to pay Barry Bonds!!!

I’m not sure Bonds is or was ever that marketable.
-
The only thing I know is that I hope it’s a stud because I feel primed to make a run for the card

My man you've been around here a while! People in this community will steal their mom's car and sell it on Craigslist to complete the collection, first day.

My thoughts too. His historic home run season alone was crazy times.

Dude was an animal. Imagine if he was on roids AND played for the Astros in 2017. 95 HR season right there.

The chase clue to me means someone to pair with Mantle. 1961 Roger Maris. Chased the Babes record with Mantle. A nice bookend. 125 125 power, SDS will make up the other stats to rationalize the card.
