It’s gonna be Ruth and I’m going to be pretty disappointed. Really wish they’d step up and bring in a new legend for the main reward.
I do too, but Bonds, Arod, and Aaron/Clemente are the only players that remotely compare to Honus last year, in the game or new legends. None of thise seem like midseason drops to me. No matter who it is, it will be disappointing to someone because no one compares to a 5 tool shortstop with that positional flexibility. Babe, Ted, Sosa, Mcgwire, and Frank are bad defensively/slow/can be easily replaced. Mays would be worth it but there is 0 chance they make him a collection reward 2 years in a row. Only current legend in the game remotely worth it besides Mays is Foxx with a C secondary IMO. I will do the collection regardless
If they’re following the Wagner model of last year which is dropping an all around card those 3 you outlined (Aaron/Arod/Bonds) would be ideal as they all where 5 tool superstars and you can justify giving them 90+ on everything. I just don’t want to be stuck with a Babe Ruth that can mash but can’t play a single position adequately. I think they did a good job with Honus last year but this year if it’s not a new legend it’s probably going to be disappointing.
I wouldn't say Aaron was a 4 tool player as he didn't really run that much in his 23 year career there is only 9 seasons where he had 15+ SB the rest where below 10. Same can be said of Arod as he has a career .250 average.
What the hell? Arod is a 5 tool player if there ever was one. Also his career batting average is .295.

As long as it's not Junior, 2000 A-Rod, or Bonds, I'm cool. I don't want it to be a card I want.

Mantle averaged 8 steals a year in his career and they gave him 90+ speed. I’m sure they wouldn’t have an issue giving arod or Aaron who actually stole 30+ bases in season above 90 speed.
Mantle was once timed as the fastest player ever to first base. That’s why he has good speed.
-
Final guess Ruth for Legend, Trout for flashback and Trout Jr for future star.
-
Theme 1998....Griffey is already in the game, what say they actually got Sosa and McGwire. ..and it's a three player reward.....oh thr possibilities....
-
Give me ARod or give me death

Let's make a deal. You get an Arod card and we don't have to listen to his awful color commentary on ESPN anymore.
Heck of a player, horrible color analyst.

Anyone know what time the collection will be dropped?

Reggie stocker. Book it!
That will be worth it! I don’t care what I have to collect as long as it’s only 1-1.5 million stubs!
I've been saying the home run chase with Sosa, McGwire and bonds / stocker for 2 weeks. I don't know if you watch YouTube but go to gomesdalegend and he has some great reasons on why he thinks it is stocker. It all makes sense and I'm even more confident now.
Gomes is my go to Youtuber! He does have great reasons and makes me think there is a 50% chance. If it is Stocker with juiced stats then maybe I’ll do it
I really hope it is Reggie. I also hope it's someone that I'm not interested in so I could sell all these cards and have a whole bunch of stubs. I really don't see me lacking in all them stubs for babe Ruth unless they give him Diamond Fielding or something outrageous which wouldn't even be realistic. Or unless it's a handful of cards like babe Ruth and Ted Williams and stuff like that
Ruth did play 1st and SDS said at the beginning of the year that they player sig cards would have every position they played. So really Ruth could pitch plus have maxed out hitting and that would be a god card.
-
Pretty sure the reward is a DoTP elite pack.
-
The only way Ruth is worth all those stubs is if he can also pitch and has elite stuff , then his [censored] fielding dosent matter and his speed becomes more acceptable. OF secondary but need an option to be able to play him when he’s not pitching and not waste a sub, as is the case now like we saw w ohtani
-
I’m still thinking maris prime or dimagio. Hank Aaron maybe , could be the Griffey card as he was a boss last year. Could be mays but you would think elite middle infielder as those are hard to come by.
A juiced up jeter ? Too big of a name?
Idk honestly but it’s going to have to be pretty insane to lock all these cards in. 5 tool rare position like honus last year. Or a two way Ruth who can deal 125 stamina 125 k and h /9 and 125 across the board hitting
-
The collection drops on the 28th and the first hint was "The Chase For..." which could refer to the Chase for 28. Only one team is chasing 28 right now, which is the Yankees. This leads me to believe its a Yankee. Mantle's clearly been taken, which could lead you to Ruth or Gehrig, who are already in the game, or maybe Maris, who hasn't been revealed. None of them are great fielders or runners, which means they could be easily replaced. A five-tool player makes the most sense. DiMaggio fits this bill perfectly, and Jeter less so but still plausible. The late clue was "BIG". Many have interpreted this as referring to size and I agree. Who is a big Yankees player who can do a little bit of everything? 2017 Rookie of the Year, Silver Slugger, Big Aaron Judge
