My 10th inning decision is easier to, I've decided to take Pujols in the boss pack, it was a long and carefully constructed thought process that led me to this revalation
I'd like to see your spreadsheet where you weighted his pros and cons.

Lifting was killer for me early.

I love it I am so happy they have dome this along with the Griffey card. It changes things up and gives us cards we haven't seen before or players in a Jersey we haven't seen for in some cases 3 years now.
I really enjoyed what they did this year as it makes team builds and theme teams get a refresh and overall something new to look at.

I understand why the Pujols 500 HR card is an Angel and that is fine but at this stage in the game I will just stick with Goldschmidt at 1B on my Cardinals team.
You've freed up some of my time over the next few weeks.
i cant hit with Goldy at all which is crazy because i normally mash with him so ill be glad to get Pujols hopefully i have better luck with him

The only ones I can think of that are worse are Scherzer and Lofton
I got Lofton’s Milestone from the first inning and I thought he was such a fun card to use. I actually bought him before I got to my pack, just in case I didn’t get it. Anyway, his defense and speed were so valuable that early. I know he isn’t a power guy, and there are so many better OFs out now; however. I think they did a good job with it. I honestly cannot remember using his cards from other years, so I cannot say you are wrong.
His signature card last year had 70ish power and was 97 overall, but thats about the only difference

You will not use the card based on the jersey he is in?

Oh yeah, I loved his rookie card at the end of the US Map. I loved his 2nd half card even though it wasn't accurate.
I just tried out some fun 1920 Cards uniforms I think will look great on The Machine!
This will be my end game first baseman, at least if I need a rightie. But I'm also the captain of the Albert Pujols (top 5 RH hitters of all time, feel free to throw fWAR stats at me, I will argue for the rest of my life, no player ever had a better decade save for maybe Bonds and Babe .300+ avg, 30+ HRs, 100+ RBIs for 10 years) fan club.....wait, what were we talking about?
Lol

I have explained it several times.
I skipped the 9th inning and, even if Pujols was a Cardinal on his Boss card, there is a 50/50 chance I would not have done the 10th inning grind anyway. The fact that he is an Angel on the card just pushes me a little more in the direction of not grinding another inning.
The only thing I try and do every year is get as many Cardinal players as I can. If the card was a Cardinal then I would be more inclined to try for him just to complete my Cardinals collection. Since he is not, that removes that motivation from my consideration.
It is not a protest that he is an Angel on the card.

Well you know these bozos have to pander to the big markets first. Even Reggie Jax should have been an A or Yank before an Angel. They gave them like 4-5 endgame sluggers in Pujols, Trout, Ohtani, Jackson and a case can be made for Edmonds.

We should have seen this coming after SDS put Griffey Jr on the Reds. Weird decisions when it comes to putting players on teams all year remember this started with Glavine on the Mets as a collection reward.
Are you aware how milestones work?
The main question is how do they choose to use a milestone card over any other series?
Pujols won the MVP 3 times with the Cardinals
Pujols won 6 Silver Sluggers with the Cardinals
Pujols won 2 Gold Gloves with the CardinalsSo they could have chosen any one of those for an Award card or they could have just given him a Signature.
I'm a little disappointed but not really complaining. It is late in the year for me and even if he was a Cardinal card I don't know if I have it in me to grind through another inning program.
And as a side question, why not change the art slightly and make it a 600 HR milestone card? That is the rarer, more elite milestone.
You are solely basing your decision on getting a player in a video game based on what jersey he is wearing?
The game won't prevent you from putting Pujols in your LA Dodgers Theme Team just because he has an Angels jersey on.
It has always just been the way I have done my Cardinal Builds. Only player cards that are actual Cardinals.
Plus, I don't even attempt to complete collections. The only thing I try to do each year is get all of the Cardinal cards, and most times there are always a few I miss.
Like I said I am not overly disappointed. Even if he was Cardinal on the card I may not have tried to get him. Just not sure I am motivated enough to do another inning program.
Thats how I do it as well based on current Cards in the game, I have
C 98 Yadi
1B: 99 Goldy
2B: 98 Edman
3B: LS Nado or 97 Gorman
SS: 97 Ozzie
LF: 99 ONeill
CF: 97 Bader
RF: 87 EdmondsMusial and Brock off the bench because I went with a defense build. Team is an absolute joke though based on Cards history.

Mine is
SS - Edman (98)
LF - O'Neill (99)
RF - Musial (99)
1B - Goldscmidt (99)
2B - Carpenter (99)
3B - Arenado (99) (my one exception to the rule)
CF - Bader (97)
C - Molina 98You're sleeping on that Carpenter card man. He just hits BOMBS.
I can't complain about the Cardinals line up of diamonds this year and I doubt we see such a high ranking team again next year. Those two POTM and the Edman postseason card were big boosts. Not to mention that Lars Nootbaar card.

I didnt unlock him, like you I'm just done grinding at this point. I barely even play now
I also hope with this extra XBox money they can put more Card legends like McGee or Rolen in and actually have them on the right team. A case can be made for Rolen in Philly but his best 1-2 offense years were in STL

85 McGee would be great.
He and Simmons are at the top of my Cardinals wish list.

Agreed, the SDS clownshow would put him on the Brewers I bet lol
