Buxton missing to much time these last couple weeks and hes only a couple points off being diamond anyways.
Vladdy and burns would be my top guesses. Lots of guys having great years so far tho, its a tough choice!
Buxton would get the most players to do the collection though regardless of how much time he missed. He would have diamond fielding and Max speed. Vladdy would have great hitting attributes but a slow 1st baseman with bad defense is easy to come by
Its only April tho so idk how they would keep Buxton under 99 ovr with that fielding, speed, pwr combo. Hed be filthy, i wouldnt be mad, id sell my team for him lol
Vladdy would be like miggys triple crown card which is a 92-93 overall and have 3rd base eligible, just seems to fit the bill to me for april anyways.
high 95 like correa last year

As a Jays (and KevinGohd) fan, VLADDY OR WE RIOT

Has to be Vlad or I'll dip my head in the Dunkaroos.

Danny Duffy or Corbin Burnes for SP - Duffy has only given up 1 run in 23 innings but Burnes has a stupid 49:0 K:BB ratio.
Melancon might get it for RP (0.083 BAA, 11:1 K:BBs, 8 saves)Deep cut: Richard Rodriguez - 10.1 innings, 10:1 K:BB ratio. 0.034 BAA (only 1 hit) 0.19 WHIP, No runs allowed 4/4 on saves on the Pirates.

No, 93 like Didi last year
-
Nick solak might be one of the lower options. Dudes crushing this year

I would say use the guy that has the highest OPS in baseball by far, but we all know that they cannot do that. It would be unfair tom he rest of the league. Guy already has a 95 card.

When you're underrated, you're underrated. Trout needs to be a 99.

People forget that MLB decides who wins this, not the Show. It's gonna be Trout and Acuna or Winker. Possibly even Degrom or Burnes. We are almost guaranteed to get the NL winner as the lightning card.
POTM in the show is selected by the dev team. They base it off of how a players live series card is rated and should preform vs how the real player preformed in a given month.
So guys like Vlad Jr, Burns, JD, Olsen are playing at a diamond level in real life but only have silver or golds.
Trout and Acuna based on their performance so far are pretty much living up to expectations card vs real life.
This is false. The card that they make in the game is one of the two players that win the MLB player of the month award for their respective league. It is not an SDS decision of who wins the award. It is an SDS decision of which one of the two they pick to make the card for. Trust me dude I have played this game since before player of the month cards were even a thing in this game. Go look back at some of the past ones from previous years. They all won the MLB player of the month award.

youre all nuts.
DEGROM. period.

This applies to the "ultimate" or "final" POTM card only I think. There are like 6 others each month that get awarded based on previous posters statement...based on real life performance and current ratings (IE silvers/bronzes getting boosts to gold/low diamond for exceeding expectations).
-
Just out of curiosity, the POTM cards come out today correct? I'm assuming this because it's the end of the month but I forget if we had to wait a extra week last year. Yes I know this is probably a stupid question
-
I just sold every card I own to get Trout last night, so I don't care, I need someone!

I'm 30k away from Trout now. Hoping that the market is good today so I can close in on him.
-
Honestly, it needs to be Corbin Burnes. I get there hitters having a good month, but Burnes has had a month far beyond any hitter.
1.53 ERA, 0.50 FIP, 0.545 WHIP, 15.0 SO9, 0.0 BB9
The man has struck out 49 batters in only 29.1 innings, and has 0 walks -- ZERO.
FORTY NINE STRIKEOUTS AND ZERO WALKS.
He's POTM and it's not even up for discussion.

I put in a buy order for like 363k and I wasn't getting any movement, so I went and sold my Nathan Evoldi card for like 6.3k and it gave me enough to Buy Now. No way was I going to miss the fish GOAT. I'll get all the other cards back anyways; Belli was the only high diamond I sold to get Trout.

It likely matches up sometimes but not always
August and September of 2019 is an example of this when it's was nicholas castellanos and James Paxston.

That's my thought as well. Best to get Trout now before he jumps to 500/600k. My hope is to make 20/30k off the POTM cards today and go from there. I sold Tim Salmon this morning because like you said I can always get him back later.
