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.
Roger Maris is a fantastic suggestion.
A collection with Maris, Sosa, McGwire, and Bonds would be amazing.

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.
I’m not sure Bonds is or was ever that marketable.
You're... joking right?
Marketable players are well liked. Not saying anything about his ability, but the personality and cheating would make any company think twice about plastering his face everywhere with their product. I’d personally love for him to be in the game, and he may be, I just wouldn’t ever describe Bonds as marketable.
Oh I absolutely would describe him as marketable. As would Sosa and McGuire.

Sammy and Mark were well liked. Bonds was hated by a lot of fans, writers, opponents, and teammates. Bonds was booed so much during his 73 HR year. Sosa and McGwire were celebrated.

Ya, Bonds was easily the most hated player possibly in the history of the game. He was absolutely miserable, and not just after '98.. even his pirate days, he was absolutely abysmal to be around and a nightmare in the clubhouse and to reporters..
But man could he hit... -

But man could he hit...I think John rocker may beat out bonds for the most hated player lol but From what I’ve heard though the years of story’s is that bonds hated the media because of how they treated his father (Bobby bonds) and godfather (Willy Mays) so he came into the league with a chip on his shoulder and wanted nothing to do with the media Which is why he was combative with them. So the media responded by reporting every negative story they could, yes he had issues with teammates but the media is the primary reason why he wasn’t liked throughout the country and made him the poster boy of steroids. It’s pretty obvious every year when Clemens gets more hof votes then bonds, even though they both have been linked to steroids. Nothing against Clemens, he was a great all time pitcher but he shouldn’t be getting more votes than someone that is in the short list of greatest players in history

The chase for 56? Joe DiMaggio?
Aren’t there signs in the outfield that say something to that effect?I think those are just meant to be promos for the game mlb puts on where you pick a batter every day and see if you can pick 56 hits in a row. I know they had something like that last year.
-
I just did some quick math, and right now I have at least 75% of every collection except HR Derby, FOTF, Future Stars and Signature Series. For Signature Series I have everything except the three cards that are currently selling for over 100k.
Assuming they do it similar to last year, what do you guys think I should target next?

Clemens is in that same short list in history.
Yes, Bonds is 1a/1b greatest with Ruth in terms of numbers, but Clemens is also in that greatest of all time rotation -

Currently have 20 rookies out of 34, 18 out of 38 all stars, 19 out of 33 vets, 16 out of 34 breakouts, and 12 our of 22 post seasons. It will be interesting if they release other sigs or awards for TA as the year goes on.

Captain Jeter would be a really present surprise.
Present?
Typo. Pleasant

I am hedging my bets on Roger Maris.

I think it's gonna be a new Legend.
I don't think it's gonna be Ruth for one reason, he was a World Series reward last year. SDS generally doesn't make somebody hard to obtain in back to back years. We saw Immortals you could grind for in 18 become Inning bosses, or put on the XP path (Nolan) in 19. Ruth and Chipper were the only ones that got tougher. World Series rewards from 18 like Sig Kershaw and Sig Sandberg, went into the XP path (Kershaw) and packs (Sandberg). Ted Williams went from an Immortal you could only get online, to an Inning boss. Vlad Sr was the Collection reward in 18, and in 19 he got an MVP card for an Inning boss, and his Sig card was free to get.

Just a hunch, and maybe others have already posted this, but if you click on the "Topps Now" link at the top of this page, the very first link at the top of the Topps page in the "Categories" section brings you to a special card collection about Jeter. Combined with the fact that he just got into the HoF with 100%-minus-one-vote recently, my money would be on Jeter being this year's Honus.
