Who are some players you're rooting for to get a "Finest Series" card?
-
First year to DD,, anyone want to share how Finest cards work? Every team gets one? Launched in packs as well as earned last year, is that true?
Many expect them in TA4?
Sorry, just trying to catch up here as only one I have seen is JRam’s in the prestige path

I don't know what the criteria is to get a finest card or if he's been in the league long enough but I'd love to see a Tatis Jr. finest.
Tatis Jr. had a 97 overall finest card last year, so it is definitely possible for him to get one.
Man I must be getting old, I don't remember that at all from last year. If he got one last year I would bet there is a good chance he will this year. Especially considering how he is playing so far this season.

Hoping for a Kyle Lewis and a Vladdy finest. Vladdy needs to turn it around tho.

There were a lot of solid Finest cards released close together, so it was easy for some to get lost in the shuffle. Maybe you didn’t use him. I only used Tatis on a team build or two and he never started for me despite having solid attributes.
I think Lindor and Bogarts were the top tier Finest shortstops most people used, and then you also had guys like Bregman and Albies who were eligible at short.

Yeah by the time the finest cards were released there were probably a lot better options at short over Tatis so I most likely wouldn't have used him. As a Padre fan though I should remember that he at least got one. Old man memory i suppose...haha.

Finest cards are the last series of cards usually released each year. They are basically an extremely supped-up Live Series card (but they are not Live Series cards and have nothing to do with them).
The coolest thing about these cards is that last year they gave each team a card and even held a poll that people could vote on and they'd give the winner the card. For example, the White Sox poll was between Lucas Giolito, Yoan Moncada, and Tim Anderson. Tim Anderson ended up getting the most votes so he received a 97 overall card.
They also give the best players at each position a Finest card. These are based on who had the best season in real life last year. The guys who got one for that were:
Catcher - J.T. Realmuto
1B - Pete Alonso (I think)
2B - D.J. Lemahieu
3B - Alex Bregman
SS - Xander Bogaerts
OF - Christian Yelich, Cody Bellinger, and Ronald Acuna Jr. (I think) -
Joe Kelly for obvious reasons.
Jesus Aguilar - the dude has slimmed down, and is hitting the ball hard -
i know buxton would never get on but i’d love to see that. mookie, tatis and pete alonso would all be guys i’d love to see get one

I’m excited for the card art. The card art on Finests is always great.

I was going to link a pic from “Santa Clarita Diet” when drew barrymore tries to sew her toe back on, but it’s gross and I’d probably get banned.
But it would have been a great visual pun.

It took me about 45 seconds but I finally got the pun... mainly thanks to a visual image I now can't get out of my head lol

Bo Bichette if he doesn't get the August POTM. This guy is an absolute star.

Hanser Alberto or Anthony Santander on the O’s they’re outplaying their price tag
