altuve looks to have a viable case
Not over Aaron Judge, again.
Not for MLB AL POTM but maybe in game because Judge already has a high diamond. But they wouldnt give it to Altuve.

Call me crazy but i can see it being a pitcher. If thats the case then my money is on Gausman
Tarik Skubal would like a word.

Didn’t see the tease on the schedule. Lightning player should be dropping next week correct?

Six total bases for his Topps Now. SIX. Really SDS. Really????

What? So now are we complaining because they are too easy? Should we go back to the 10 or 12 TB moments?
-
I apologize for not being clear. I think 6 total bases is a bit much for a moment. Especially when it starts in the bottom of the 2nd inning.

If Story didn't have that stupid Topps Now flashback this would be incredibly obvious......Goldschmidt is the only other real option, but he's another 1st baseman.
Altuve still has the Astros problem......people would complain.
I say a 96-97 overall Story is plausible.

If we get a May POTM Trevor Story that is 96+ ill play MLBTS again.

I don't think the "astros problem" will factor into it. People complained about rizzo, they will complain about goldy, and they will complain about story becsue his contact numbers will be in the 60s and he just got the topps now. It's either going to be altuve or a pitcher imo.

Story's fielding would go down to mid-gold at best, which would allow 80 plus contact a side.
Plus he'd be jumping up at least 5 in overall.

Story is bating. 238 this month... where are you getting 80 contact from each side?
He has also struckout the 3rd most times. So low vision and discipline.

We simply ignore the stats the stats that don't fit our narrative

Won't be Betts solely because he 95 release
Won't be Story because he just got the 91 recentlyNot saying neither of them deserve it but that has to be taken into account as well.

Verlander….watch

Verlander….watch
Now that...I could get on board with. It's amazing how I've even pitched decently with his 72 Rookie card.
-
The options:
Goldschimdt - Another 1st baseman
Verlander - In-play but wouldn't be a high enough overall to be usable with his pitch mix
Altuve - They have never given him his MVP card.....unless he pulls a Sosa and has a 20 homer month, this ain't happening
Betts - No.....He just got a 95 overall. This card would be a 96-97 max.
Alonso - Would want to save him for HR Derby
Story - In-play but would need to be exagerated with contact to be worthwhile
Judge- No....his live series is 94 overall -

Judge- No....his live series is 94 overallYeah, IRL Judge AL and Goldy NL are pretty much locks. But probably neither for MLB the Show. Like you said Altuve is out, just because, doesnt matter how much it is proven he had nothing to do with the Astros thing from 2017. But we sure could use a good 2nd baseman. Betts just got a nice card. It could actually be Story. While only maybe the 4th to 6th best POTM for May he may be a lightning card.
