Puckett? Sandberg?
Can’t be Sandberg. He played for the Phillies and Cubs. The clue said he only played for one team.

@cdnmoneymaker93_xbl said in Boss #1 hint:
Played for one team
10 plus time all star
Hall of FamerAttributes clue
Full contact , about 70 power both side, good speed and fielding
It Tony Gwynn in my eyes
Gonna be a gwynn milestone card from the year he had 56 steals and batted 320
-
Other thought is Yount, but he unbelievably was only a 3x All Star. It's incredible to think that he was top 20 MVP voting 7 times, including 2 wins, is 30th in career offensive WAR, and was only an All Star 3 times. He wasnt even an All Star in his second MVP season. Just crazy.
-
I'm glad to see a 99 Gwynn (if it is in fact him). I love his 94 card but obviously don't use it much at this stage in the game. He may not make the "one God squad to rule them all" for those that only use the same Meta players every game but for anyone who plays offline, uses theme teams or just likes to mix up their rosters, he's a great fit. What would his be? Milestone 3,000, Award Batting Title? I'd love some more prime cards.

Good call, I would have guessed Sandberg as a possibility as I always forget he played with the Phillies.
Also, that's Crazy Yount was only an All Star 3×?
I never would have guessed that, I would have assumed at least 9-10. -

Could be Puckett.
The speed is what made me say Gwynn over Kirby
Has to be Gwynn. I thought Puckett too but its 10 plus asg. Puckett had exactly 10 all star games.

Puckett? Sandberg?
Puckett wasn’t a huge base stealer and the hint has close to max, if not max, stealing. Otherwise, I could see Puckett as an option. All signs point to Gwynn.

Wish it was Ichiro

People excited for Gwynn and claiming it's not an L...
You're really going to use an outfield spot on him when there are plenty of high contact AND high power guys to use?
Not me. So yes it's an L. Sorry.
At this point in the year(especially after Mantle's drop) there aren't going to be almost any outfielders better. Griffey and Mays because they are Griffey and Mays but thats it. I've started using nothing but theme teams in RS recently and its the most fun I've had in the mode all year. Also the Padres were the last team without a 99. I'm not a padres fan by any means but Tony Gwynn is an inner circle hall of famer and probably the best contact hitter of all time. Sometimes its seems some of you aren't even baseball fans and only like the sport because of this game
-
I feel like Puckett would have more power. I'm thinking it's Gwynn. That kinda sucks though being that there's so many right fielders. Oh well. He's a great hitter.

I would make the case of Griffey, Mays and Aaron, I expect if Aaron gets a 99 card which he will it will be in everyone's lineup. End game outfield may be Mantle, Griffey, Aaron despite all 3 being centerfielders

Gwynn, Ripken, Griffey Jr

@no-online-play-_psn said in Boss #1 hint:
Cal Ripken?
He’d have way more power, especially against lefties. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him in this program as well, tho.
Didn’t the attributes make it seem like he had good speed as well? That would remove Ripken; though I, as well as most on here, also think it is Gwynn.

@gradekthebard said in Boss #1 hint:
And if we were still using 19s hitting engine instead of the dumpster fire we have now I would agree with you.
I agree that hitting was much better in 19, but I think “dumpster fire” is a harsh term for this one. I still play this game; however, I have never found myself playing in or around dumpster fires.

Gwynn, Ripken, Griffey Jr
Griffey Jr. Played for several teams though only really well for 1. I'm definitely looking forward to his 99 though.

Yeah his 600 HR Milestone card is going to be amazing and will look so good in the Reds theme colors

Hahahaha, man that'll create mass hysteria in here. Personally I'd like to see his sleeping in the dugout awards card.

Yeah most definitely Gwynn. Cue the L comments like there won't be 2 other choices
Anyone who says it's an L didn't use his card in 2019 that was usable all year round that card was amazing,
If it's him it's a good card to have in there and one I'll pick up for sure
And if we were still using 19s hitting engine instead of the dumpster fire we have now I would agree with you.
Same engine. Its where they have the game sliders. The analytics, which they are going off of, say to place the sliders where they are at. Perhaps they are right. If it was easy, people would be complaining. Which does make the game engine, itself, the actual issue. It needs to be over hauled.
