@mastermut4life said in Lol. Concerning 9th Inning Bosses:
Some people on twitter have said per a 9th inning leak they will be Fox, Honus and Kenley. Nobody has said where this leaked information came from all that it was leaked.
So ANOTHER 1B that will fight for playing time against Ruth and Gehrig, ANOTHER SS that comes AFTER people locked in over 200K for Lightning Tatis, and ANOTHER Closer after they put a SIG SERIES Goose in a Post Season Event.
Looks like I'm selling Kershaw and Rodriguez; because NONE of this 3 will make my team.
On a side note: WHERE'S JUNIOR!!!

If it is Foxx, Jansen and Wagner, which apparently it is, I’m disappointed personally. I don’t want any of them.
-
Id probably stick honus at 3rd and platoon him with schmidt.

I could use a SS, especially since Ripken is terrible, but I don’t want some guy who died when dinosaurs roamed the earth in my squad, tbh. I don’t care if he has the rarest baseball card in the world in real life. That’s not relevant to me.

See in some aspects I feel the same way, but more because they were before my time then anything else. I enjoy having players on my team that I grew up watching. Other than 99 Mantle, everyone else one my team I saw play on tv so there's that connection.

Same here. I like to try new cards just for variety, but my end game team will usually be full of the guys I watched play.

This is why I was very excited to see they put out a 94 Lee Smith. Growing up as a Cubs fan he was the closer I always loved watching. Same thing with Sandberg & Dawson.

So they've announced 2 of the 150 guys (Finley and Blue) and they've released the Conquest Map Art (a helicopter w/ 7+1 strongholds.
Based on these clues, here are my guesses:
A's - 150/Vida (already announced)
DBacks - 150/Finley (already announced)
Dodgers - 150/Prime Justin Turner
Cardinals - refers to new WS reward Pujols
Pirates - 300/Awards Stargell
Braves - 300/Signature Spahn
Reds - 300/Awards Morgan -

I can never figure this stuff out for myself. I appreciate everybody's opinions on this. I'm sold on the Foxx, Honus, Kenley prediction.

At multiple times this year they said sig cards will have all positions the player played in there career. Foxx was a catcher and played 3rd as well as LF and RF. So he could play third or catcher and still have Ruth or Gehrig on the team both if you have 2 other good out fielders.

Uh, no. They didn't. They said you had to play a significant # of games at that position for it to be part of your Sig card.
Foxx racked up 109 appearances at Catcher so he'd more than likely qualify UNLESS it was an Awards card because he didn't make a single appearance there during any of his MVP seasons.

I'm sticking to my predictions I posted earlier this week...
Bosses: Willie Mays, Honus Wagner, and Kenley Jansen
Henchmen: Edgar Martinez, David Price, and Steve Finley
The 9th inning conquest map strongholds belong to the A’s, Pirates, Dodgers, Cardinals, Braves, Reds, and Diamondbacks.
The bosses and henchmen will be from those teams. Honus (Pirates) and Kenley (Dodgers) fit the map, but I think you’re looking at Foxx (A’s) as the other boss.
Finley (Diamondbacks) is a henchman, and two of the other henchmen will be from the Braves, Reds, or Cardinals.
Movie took a stab at this theory on YouTube yesterday, and it was a bit of a dud. There were a couple of times where it was accurate...then other times not at all...then other times he combined the bonus map with the program map...it was a mess, and certainly didn’t reflect a pattern.
Not saying it won’t happen, or hasn’t happened...but it has not been a common enough trend so say SDS correlates the conquest teams with program rewards.

Pretty much everything Movie does is a dud, and a mess. He isn't even energetic or interesting to listen to. No idea why he suddenly became popular.

I understand that. But for me personally I have no use for these three players. My OF is already cluttered with Cobb, Mantle, Walker, Brock, MVP Trout (if I get him), and Griffey when he finally drops.
I'm not replacing Tatis at SS, after locking in over 200K to get him). I could play him at third and put Honus at SS (if SS is his primary position).
And I have no room for Jensen in my BP.
Again, this is my opinion and others may feel different.
-
If it’s Foxx, Jansen, and Honus this will be the first time this year I’ve really wanted all 3 bosses I think.
But knowing SDS it will probably be a 99 Flashback Prospect John Smoltz, a 99 postseason Luis Robert, and another Padre.
-
It it’s Foxx he better be able to play 3rd base. He did during his best season.
