99 Soto for WAS would be surprising. He already has a FOTF card for WAS.
And? They gave Posey a FOTF and a 99 right out of the gate so having a FOTF means nothing especially considering you're looking at a 10 point difference.
I didn't think about that, but that was an interesting choice...

As a Mets fan I would love to see a usable deGrom card but I also think Dom Smith is deserving of it since he killed it this year and doesn't have any diamond versions
what do you think of Robinson cano ? Great bounce back season if you ask me

Lol if the Orioles was Jose Iglesias I would lose my mind.. no one wants a contact hitting shortstop.. (Big O's fan here)

And that is who they will probably choose.

Him and Edwin Diaz both had good 2nd seasons. Im excited for next year now that we have a legitimate owner who wants to win.

I think Abreu had the better year (and tbh I think he's the clear choice for AL MVP), but he's already got a pretty solid 97 TN so I kinda hope they give it to Tim Anderson instead. My All-Time Sox team already has Konerko, Frank, 97 Abreu, and SS Encarnacion, and since SDS is dragging their feet on a SS Luis Aparacio, my best SS is the 88 Tim Anderson POTM from last year.

Now if he had 125 contact vs both sides, 80-85 power vs both sides and 99 speed then everyone would want him lol

Posey was not in the TA twice. One was a TA FOTF card, the other was a 99 Awards card. I still think they should have picked a different player for the 99 Free Awards player there.
But ultimately, seeing as how no one on the Nationals except Soto and Turner have done anything this year, and Soto has better stats this year, maybe it will be him.

I believe TA4 will be Finest for each team. With them starting the reveals tomorrow, I figured I’d share my predictions.
The process: I used 2.0 fWAR as the rough cutoff to receive a 99 overall (with catchers and relievers graded on a slight curve). I tried to avoid giving repeat high diamonds where I could, but it was unavoidable in some situations (I.e. Twins with Maeda/Cruz and Cardinals with Goldy). As long as the player does not already have a 99 in-game, he was eligible for a 99 Finest (eliminated Tatis, JRam). Players with high diamonds already but were their team’s clear and only 99 choice got their 99 (Lowe, Bieber, Perez, Yastrzemski).
NYY: 99 LeMahieu
TB: 99 Lowe
TOR: 98 Ryu
BOS: 98 Bogaerts
BAL: 97 IglesiasMIN: 99 Cruz
CLE: 99 Bieber
CWS: 99 Abreu
DET: 97 Candelario
KC: 99 PerezOAK: 99 Hendriks
HOU: 99 Valdez
SEA: 99 Gonzales
TEX: 97 Lynn
LAA: 99 BundyATL: 99 Freeman
MIA: 97 Rojas
PHI: 99 Realmuto
NYM: 99 deGrom
WAS: 99 SotoCHC: 99 Darvish
STL: 99 Goldschmidt
CIN: 99 Bauer
MIL: 98 Williams
PIT: 98 HayesLAD: 99 Betts
SD: 99 Lamet
SF: 99 Yastrzemski
COL: 99 Marquez
ARI: 97 GallenNot an exact science, but I think most of these make sense. We will see over the coming days
So far so good. ! Cruz is a finest confirmed

For the ones that had two: I would say Cole, due to DJ having a high diamond that wasn't LS.
I would say Glasnow because Lowe has a POTM card. -

I didn't think about them! Snell I agree, but not sure about Voit…. He has a POTM, but he will probs get it anyway.
-
Gerrit Cole will be the Yankees Finest.

I'm curious how conquest is going tie in with TA4. Didn't they say on the last stream that conquest was going to be a big part?

I’ve heard people say that. I really hope not. I think conquest is mind-numbingly boring. I hope showdown is still an option. And exchange of course.

I don't mind conquest, but agree I'd rather just do the exchanges. I'm wondering if some of the better Finest, guys like Freeman, Machado, Soto and so on will be tied to the map. I don't know how it would make sense, but like for the Braves I could see Ozuna getting the regular Finest and Freeman being a card you have to grind for.
I'm probably wrong, but it has me wondering.

99 Marquez is a good bet. I'd rather have a 99 Freeland or Bard though tbh
