While I dont understand the true logistics behind getting these players in this game, it's such a tease that there are so many good names in this game yet SOO many that are not. There is a small part of me that thinks it's strategic by SDS to keep people coming back, but I know there is a whole ton of legal stuff that goes into all of this. I really hope they are able to get some of the bigger names I see on these boards in the game in the coming years....IMO it's kind of boring to see player programs be the same lame guys that we rarely will ever use (Alan Trammel cough cough)

There’s probably a certain truth to that (you wouldn’t want to release Hank, Rocket,DiMaggio,UNIT, Pedro, Bonds, Manny ALL in one year. You’d want to space them out to all for multiple years of new additions.)

I'm just glad we got Twitch this year, even though his highest card is only a 94.
(Hint hint SDS, if there's a new batch of RIB cards on the way).

Back in my day you got Joe random and Reggie Stocker and you liked it!

Mauer will be back sooner or later. Its not like he isn't on good terms with SDS, he was the cover boy twice. Just a matter of when really. I would like to see those other guys too, I raked with Morneau in 17. Santana would be fun to have but unfortunately he wouldn't play too well in this game
Left handed Greg Maddux.

Belle was in MLB 18, and then got tossed the next year for DUI/indecent exposure.
Is that why they dumped him? He had a horrible swing from what I remember. Him and Darrin Erstad…..one year only cards.

So Exactly like Glavine and Lee that no one uses. That's my point. Not a knock on Johan but soft tossers are just not ever good in this game

Ok I'll bite....who is Twitch? I'm only familiar with the app.

Yeah, like Dragon said, soft tossers are rarely used effectively.
I think they’ve tried to make them more usable in H2H but the pitch speeds are so ridiculous that any contrast to that is just too easy to adjust to.
I almost recommend using a flamethrower as an opener for two innings, then bring a finesse arm, but even then you’d be lucky to get four innings out of him before the adjustment is made.
It just isn’t worth it.

Joe Nathan. He had a nervous tick where he would twitch his head to the side
