Yeah I'm indifferent about this
His Vet card is so good that I won't miss his best version
On the other hand he has really become the most elusive guys in the game always being pretty hard to aquire
Again, it isn’t about stubs, it’s about time. For one of the most popular players best card to be released in mid-October (just like last year) and then behind a huge wait queue is just a bad decision (one of the first the SDS content team has made this year to be fair).
The late arrival of his card I get totally but at the same time I get why he is there as he is a sought after card that people will pay for add in the number of stub floating around I dont think it's a miss step in that context

Like Billy Wagner, the last 12-0 reward? Soooo..... Let’s imagine I’m the stereotype of SDS ideal customer. Billy Wagner or Chipper, if you prefer, is my favourite player of all time. I want his best card and money is no object. I log on at the weekend and I see - WOW! A brand new 99 version of my favourite player!! I reach for the old wallet and I buy $700 worth of stubs with no thought, because money is no object and I’m SDS ideal customer. I place my order and wait expectantly. And wait. And wait. And wait. The reality here is, of course, I’m never going to see that card. If I do, it might be Christmas by then and a whale like me who spends that much on entertainment and wants instant gratification has probably moved on to PS5. People might want to pay for him, but they simply won’t be able to.

they gave him his alternate stance too so that swing is gonna be butter

They have another option. Get 12-0.

I’m just happy it wasn’t Mays... Maybe we will get lucky and they give us a BR pack in the 11th or 12th inning program at the end of the year.

I just saw the numbers on the chipper card and there’s no way that card is worth $1M stubs to me. I have plenty but I’m not spending them on that.

It’s all in the swing.

Fair enough. I know a lot of people love him. Just not for me.

Look, I have about 2.5 million stubs, so cost isn’t the issue, but what a brain dead decision to put one of the more popular players of the last 25 years behind a massive wait queue since no one is playing Br anymore. I wonder how many Chippers will even be “won” by the end of the month, maybe 50 (for the thousands of people still playing DD).
That’s pretty awful, but maybe they figured people That can’t get him will be happy with JRam.
That would be me, I'm just fine lol
I hit better with 95 Panda and Ramirez is icing on the cake. I'm jus glad it wasn't Mays. I don't need a 99 Chipper
-
So if I dump everything not bolted down, I get to maybe 600k in stubs. That's a hell of a lot of RIB conquest maps to play for Chipper. Guess I'll stick with my prestige version.
Two years in a row SDS has released Chipper late and as a reward. You know, we're living in a society! We're supposed to act in a civilized way!

Nah. His swing is good, but it isn’t amazingly better than say JRam, Rogers, or Sheffield. Prestige JRam (swing and all) is way better than this Chipper (and I won’t have to wait until mid-November to play with JRam either).
-
They lowered his vision by 10 from last year. Could be a mistake that will be fixed.
-
I just realized, Goose is my ticket! Need 48 wins but if he sells for 400k, I sell Jansen for 200k when I get him and sell SS Glavine it could work!
I'm back baby!
