Topps Now Yoshi Tsutsugo has more power against righties than 500 HR Miggy 🤡

I don't care what his stats are, I can't use his godawful swing.

Understand that the community and playerbase must share in the responsibility of this.
Every time a card is release and there are 150 comments on Facebook that the card won't make the bench or won't start its an L. SDS has to respond and make cards usable.
Also let's not forget MLB 2018 and the idea that there where only 17 or so cards that where considered the best and the game broke down to the same lineup every game after July and people complained about that.
I don't know what people want anymore, they want usable cards but then usable cards are released and then their are complaints that these cards are to good. Like make up your mind.
Also trying to tie the cards market value to its attributes is point less cause there is so much more that goes into market value then attributes.
I get the competitiveness argument to an extent but remember that SDS is running a business that is designed to appeal and sell to a mass market and not the small % of people that make the high level of WS.

While I don't normally have a problem with the attributes on cards as I use a variety of cards anyway(and unless the attributes are real bad I don't care about the difference between 100 and 125 power for example). You have to admit that the topps now cards have gone a bit overboard

We could have that debate for sure.
I personally don't care at all the more bat s**t crazy these cards are the more fun I think it is.
I get the argument I just subscribed to that in the long runs its not really a big deal and that it's a game and it's ment to be fun so just enjoy it don't worry about of every card they release.

I sold BR Harper this morning for 320,000 stubs and bought Topps Now Conforto for 12,000, who has better quirks and equal if not better hitting stats. I could also sell AS Realmuto and put in Topps Now Grandal.
The Topps Now cards early in the year were not very good. Surprisingly, the cards being released now are endgame. As if somehow magically players earning a Topps Now late in MLB the Show's gameplay cycle (post Madded) are better and have better performances than those Topps Now players early in MLB the Show's gameplay cycle.
Honestly, these Topps Now cards are stupid and ruin gameplay. They're fake equalizer cards for players who can't earn high level cards as rewards in Ranked or BR.
-
I do find some of this ironic. There was a rather large debate over whether Joe Carter was "worthy" of a 93 rated card. He hit one of the more legendary HRs in MLB history, and it was a World Series walkoff. Now we get these insanely boosted cards (much better than Carter) for much more trivial moments, and I guess its OK, because diversity.
Might as well get that 99 Joe Carter card with 125 power now.

Unfortunately there is no right answer to this. Can't please everyone. These Topps Now cards are amazing, yet most of us don't use them. I think there is something to be said for exclusivity. It's like collecting in real life, people that are really into it want the rarer ones. There's just something about playing with rarer cards than Topps Now etc. On the other hand, these TN cards are great to the average player. With out these many people would probably choose not to play online and get slaughtered. They have to try to please both sides.

Well put. In general I find the cards fun and frankly are a nice change of pace.

As a offline player, I absolutely love the Topps Now Cards. It's great collecting them and using the players in games.
Last season , since it was so short, every Topps Now content was stacked w/ high diamonds.
This year they've made it somewhat fair but this week's TN are just awesome.
Loving it! Pure F-U-N

I don't know what it is about Miggy, I'm struggling with him and might put Fielder back in at 1st. Which is odd to me because I've always loved Miggy's swing and even use it for my CAP.
Doesn't hurt my feelings as a Twins fan to take him out though.

I love Miggy. For the last two years it is weird. I hit line drives etc but not many HRs. Insanely high average though with him. But I need that pop from the corner infield spot.

Survive the first round of the playoffs and come back to me, haha. But then again, the Tigers had their fair share of almost-theres during the Dombrowski era. We made it to the WS twice though!
I'm curious to hear a Twins fan's perspective on the La Russa-Mercedes incident.

Its because of Dombrowski's insane inability to get pieces for the Bullpen. The Red Sox powered through under Dombrowski in 2018 somehow. The 2013 ALCS still leaves a big sting, same with Nelson Cruz in 2011

Now put yourself in the shoes of the guy who can't play all the time. He pumps his hard earned money into the game and as soon as he buys George Brett a free Joey Wendle comes out with almost identical stats.
Is it still fun?

I know. I felt the pain. Somebody made a Tigers shirt back then that read, "My bullpen makes me drink." I concurred.
