Dan Plesac is literally a commentator in the game but not playable, doesn’t make any sense to me

Somebody at SDS should look into this. That's pretty weird.

So let them ask Plesac if he rather stay as a commentator or be featured as a Legend in in the game. If Plesac says he would like to be a Legend, then they could get someone else to replace him as commentator. LMAO

In 17 Harold Reynolds was commentator in the game and you could get him in DD the 2 are not exclusive lol

[Jkwon15_PSN]

He’s not a reliever but I would love to see a Jose Fernandez card in the game at some point.

Tug McGraw ........ "YOU GOT TO BELIEVE!!!!!"

Only a true real Met fan will know about that with Tug. lol

Phillies fans disagree with that statement.

Just had to be either a Phillies, Braves or Yankees fan to hate on Quick-Draw McGraw. LMAO

Not hating bro, he was just as good if not better with the Phillies

He did record the final out of the 1980 World Series with Philly.

[phillydave35_PSN]

Also, Tugs quote after that series.

All through baseball history, Philadelphia has had to take a back seat to New York City. Well, New York City can take this world championship and stick it! 'CAUSE WE'RE NUMBER ONE!

He was always good for both Mets & Phillies, but his notoriety came with the Mets & especially for the 69 Season with him screaming & chanting "YOU GOT TO BELIEVE!!!!!" after every save he made after the All Star game because the Mets were coming out from last place with a run that lead them into 1st place within 6 weeks that took them to the playoff's & then to the World Series. Which they won & being called the "Miracle Mets". Quick-Draw was a huge key in all that, not just with performance, but also mostly with team moral & motivation.

In later years, McGraw expressed remorse toward his comments toward New York. He returned to Shea Stadium on numerous occasions following his retirement, citing his love for the Mets fans.

That is all coming from his Wikapedia page. But also when he was interviewed after learning he didn't make the votes needed on his final year on the HOF ballet. He was aked what team he would have chosen to enter as. He said "Definitely as a Met' I'm a Met for life. YO GOTTA BELIEVE!!!!!!!"

The Mic Has Been Dropped!!!!!! BOOYAH!!!!!!!!!

Your timeline is wrong. You gotta believe was not their 1969 World Series year. It was 1973.

Yeah that’s never going to happen, and for good reason.

[bunt-dancing_PSN]

An 88 2017 Alex Claudio flashback would be absolutely filthy

[Some_Schmuck_22]

John Wetteland would be nice. Some people forget that Mariano was the set-up man in the Yankees first WS Championship within the modern era.

I'd also like to see an additional long reliever available earlier in the year. Scott Kamieniecki and Ramiro Mendoza come to mind.

Wasn't aware of this. Agreed. Honestly, I always thought his off the field problems were nose candy related.

[SchnauzerFace_PSN]

They need to fix pitchING before worrying about new pitchERS.

Brad Lidge (Phillies, not the stinky, smelly Disastros)
Tug McGraw
Jose Mesa
John Franco
K-Rod
Mariano Rivera
Joe Nathan
Jon Wetteland err, Jason Isringhausen
Sparky Lyle
Kent Tekulve (That Delivery)
Arthur Rhodes

Careful. There are men with pitchforks around here that jump to talk like that.. but you couldn't be more right, honestly.

There was a K-Rod card last year that was pretty good IIRC. And a Joe Nathan card in '16 and '17 that were both incredible. It'd be awesome to see them again

A postseason RP Clayton Kershaw 65 overall with 20 for clutch....

Hoyt Wilhelm would be cool as a name, but I suppose with him being a knuckleballer it won't happen.
