The best defensive 2B I have seen, and a great all around player.
Considering allegations that he beat his first wife, and the spitting in the face of the umpire incident, I'm sure with the latest allegation that he will no longer be in the game anymore, and I would say rightly so.
Heck of a player. Grew up watching his every game, from 91-95 or so, as I'm a die hard Jays fan who watched every telivised game during the Jays' amazing almost decade long stretch of being a powerhouse.. breaks my heart. Jays are getting rid of his name on the level of excellence and his #12 banner.
He was great defensively and had amazing range despite the analytics saying otherwise.. definitely wasn't the best defender though. I think the most underrated part of his game was his speed. He was lightning quick. In his first 3 years in Toronto he stole over 150 bags..
Sad to see him destroy his life.

They might offer another card in his place like they did a few years ago with a certain pirates reliever. Give that card up for the new one.

Are more accurate comparison is Omar Vizquel last year. Never got a better card then his 89 and is now gone from the game. They could go the Vazquez route though

Go get Chase Utley's rights. There is an accurate comparison!!

Yeah I think his 89 gets taken away and replaced with another card
-
Yikes.....SDS didn't see that one coming.

His 2017 card was sooooooo good

i remember that spitting in the face umpire incident when we were kids - he lost a ton of respect in the baseball world that day
-
This card has been juiced the past couple of days and I love it! He was hitting bombs for me

Why? Isiah Thomas has done worse, repeatedly, and confirmed in a court of law, but gets the royal treatment in the NBA 2K series.

I’m going to use this 89 until the wheels fall off.

How in earth do you post gifs here.. lol. Just post the link?

I wish they would just go by player accolades and not off the field bs, this card will be in my lineup for a while, especially since I'm not buying anymore bs stubs for bronze and silver packs this year. SDS got me 2019 and 2020, not this year gd'mit
-
Hes probably going to be taken out of the game IMO

You’re right. Guilty until proven innocent!

He was guilty of spitting in an umpire's face. There were also domestic violence injunctions served against him by police during his first marriage. Those are the facts.
I dont want it to be true either, but adding new charges, along with his past... it doesnt look good.

Love Alamor the player but he has to go.
There is precedent with Vasquez last year. He'll get removed. It is what it is. Don't sexually assault people, esp. minors.

His card is a great leadoff hitter, batting almost 500 for me
