Steroids isn't why they aren't in the game. All those guys have extremely high egos and won't give up their rights. At least not for what SDS is willing to pay
uh wrong... Bonds does but the rest don't. It's the mlbpa that keeps most of those guys out.
SDS negotiates with all retired players individually. They aren't in the MLBPA after they retire
I think you misunderstand. The mlbpa has a say on who sds negotiates with and they don't want them to negotiate with the steroid guys.
I really think you are looking too much into it. SDS is a business. MLB and the MLBPA probably do have a list of people that can't be in the game, but it's the Chicago Black Sox and Pete Rose. Maybe Bonds and Clemens but that is probably just because they were the faces of the whole thing. There's no way they would let SDS get the rights to Giambi but not say Jose Canseco. They didn't care about this game at all until they wanted Xbox added to the mix, which was likely a marketing ploy for baseball as a whole. I really don't think the MLBPA cares much about this game at all

I want Derek Bell and Lance Berkman so I can make a true Killer B's Astros team from when I was a kid.
Also give me Glenn Davis.

Absolutely, I'm 43 and grew up loving those guys and Glen Davis, wow I loved watching him crush balls in the dome but other than my brother and dad I have very rarely heard his name mentioned. Had the Astros won a little more and Davis got some exposure in places other than East Texss he would have been talked about as 1 of the better power hitters from that time period. You forgot 1 guy though and he would be a fun card to have in the game , Ken Caminiti dude was insane at 3b descent switch hitter once he got to San Diego and let the juice flow he was a beast at the plate and what a great 99 card that would be

I'd love to see big puma, Lance Berkman in the game. Loved watching him play and met him. He's a good dude
-
I love how all the Astros fans pine for days of the Killer B’s. Ever since Altuve was afraid to make his wife mad about people seeing his chest and the buzzer taped to it any of the players who were with them from 2016 to present don’t seem all that cool. Except for Zack Grienke. He will always be cool.

I did enjoy making a Phillies infield of Schmidt, Rollins, Utley and Howard. Made a for a very cool all time team.
Just need Utley, Howard, and Abreu while we are at it. -

Being a Brewers fan, I watched a lot of Astros games (they were in the same division previously) and they were tough for a while. The talent just never amounted to much. Berkman, Biggio, Bagwell, Oswalt, Wagner off the top of my head. Pretty dirty. In 2004 they had the 3 Bs (Berkman, Biggio & Bagwell), Jeff Kent, Carlos Beltran, Brad Ausmus, Willy Taveras, Oswalt, Roger Clemens, Andy Pettite, Dotel, Brad Lidge.
Carlos Lee was a beast too! But he came a couple years later.

Steroids saved the game! Bring on the ROID era!!! I remember the crowd numbers in early ‘95. Some crowds had less than 2500 fans.

Original killer Bs was Biggio, Bell and Bagwell. Berkman was the latter years.
Ah Glenn Davis there was a season or 2 he was a slugger. I remember that swing.

For that 2004 playoffs at least. But they still got bounced by the Cardinals and went to WS next year after he decided to take the money in NY lol. Not to mention came back 12 years later to destroy the franchise. PoS

Randy Johnson, any of the rockies power hitters, Daryl Kile would be cool too.

Lol. Yup.
Well that Cardinals '04 team was stacked. Pujols, Edmonds, Rolen in the heart.. gross...
Of course it was the Sox destiny to win though
