A grown man gets upset at a video game for releasing “fake cards” for prospects but not releasing a “fake card” for a retired player.
If only there were a way to create a player, and edit the name, and all the features of said player to be that of what you want. And even equip it with a specific batting stance.
Too bad you missed the point. It's beyond Bagwell bruh. Of course, you are fine with the Yankees getting plenty of love.
No thanks for the "recommendation" of RTTS player as a solution.
Oh, and in case you missed the concept of MLB the Show card attributes, they try to mimick a body of work over a certain time period. Fake Series get their little league attributes. I'm just looking for a wider team representation here, along with my personal preferences of players I enjoyed watching play the game.
I know, SDS needs to cater to YOUR preferences. I forgot that they tailor the game to YOUR specific wants and needs.
You have the RTTS solution. You don’t want it.
Don’t use the future stars cards then. (You will)
The other solution is stop playing the game. I suppose you won’t utilize that one either.
So quit complaining about a game that you’re obviously going to continue to play regardless of the content they give you. (You won’t)

Here. I'll feed the troll....
RTTS. Absolutely. I don't play it.
Fake Series cards. Absolutely. I don't use them except for required missions. Been that way since they first were introduced.
Stop playing. Pretty much have already.
Complaining about the game? Na. Everyone does enough of that already. I'm just calling out facts about the lack of logic for card releases this year.
I support the game and staff more than 90% of the people here on TSN. The way they are releasing cards this year is horrible (in MY OPINION). Back in my original post, I advised that I had no expectations of resolution here.
Heaven forbid someone vent.
Enjoy your evening.

Hate to break it to ya, but unless they totally redesign Bagwells swing, he will be trash. He is every year. So just prepare for that so you're not let down. Just my opinion

So when September ends.

I get it. It's a general comment I'm making about content release and using Bagwell as my personal example of a failure here for more diversity of teams getting cards.

No problem vent on... I don't disagree... just a heads up brother

We have a private league of guys that use DD cards for friendly games. Bagwell gets over 600 ab a year regardless of the crappy swing. He was juiced about 3 years ago IIRC, but that swing rivals Schmidt in terms of resembling Bantha Poodu.
Bags is still my boy.

Every year since 1996, I took Bagwell in the first round of my in person office fantasy league I ran. Even on the decline, you could book him round one.

That would of been Vlad Sr. and Frank Thomas for me growing up. And I'm a Tigers fan, so imagine the mixed emotions with Frank!

I wish it wasn’t, but Bagwell’s swing is perennially terrible and Astros fans are the only ones looking forward to him.
At least Biggio has a great swing. I loved that card from the collection in ‘20.

It's not bad if you practice with him. He will never be meta but I use him year

I agree man. Another reason why I hate future stars is it prolongs or replaces content of legitimate MLB players.
I’m a Rockies fan, so our history is limited obviously, but there’s so many FBs they could create.
Instead of a 95 Future Stars, I’d take an All-Star Blackmon, a Breakout Kyle Freeland for when he almost won the Cy Young, that milestone Dexter Fowler, All-Star Marquez, the list goes on.. and these are all CURRENT players. No rights needed. It just feels lazy to me.
-
Yeah a good Bagwell card is needed early in the game. When they released his 99 card from last years game his card was completely obsolete.
-
Page 2 stats as of this morning....
Yankees 26
Phillies 22
Cleveland 16
Toronto and BOS at 15
9 teams at 13 or 14
12 teams 9-11
TB, CHW, TEX 8
KC 7Yes it's early, but that's way top heavy. Don't sleep on card quality either. Most of those 7-11 teams are low quality outside of 2-3 cards for each of them.
-
Doesn't Bagwell have a little kids bat in every Show game and doesn't play well. Or am I miss remembering

I’d love to see a 1996 Ellis Burks!

Was nice knowing the content team. Been a pretty good run. Not sure where they happen to be these days, but yeah... Let's keep pumping out lots of other garbage in the interim.
OMG, let's drop another Brian Wilson! We can give them Bagwell again in December!
Wait, let's throw out 30 fake series cards...
He's on the legend roster again, so y'all didn't lose rights. He's not a trash can banger, so that narrative won't work.
I'm only one person. I know I'm not moving the needle here. But, I am extremely disappointed.
Astros have been under represented this game cycle. Majority of the content released continues to pile up in the L column.
Enjoy the rest of your day folks.
I'm the same way with Robin Yount. Frustrating how they ignore all time greats so long

FYI Bagwell card in the game today

Yep. Gives me something to hold down 1B with for fun.
Thank you SDS.
