Let’s get a 99 Buxton All Star card
-
If he gets a legit card after tonight’s game he’ll probably be the best CF in the game. I’ve heard people like the HRD Rodriguez but I know the all star cards are usually really good. Last years base round Xander was a beast.

Bux was channeling his '21 POM card!
-
Stanton!$!

Stanton L card inbound ugh

Yup another Stanton, i just can't bring myself to get to excited about that unfortunately.
-
Buxton will likely get one too. Just not a 99. His contact might be suspect.
-
Who else besides Buxton and Stanton are we thinking get cards?
Clase - Save striking out the side. Makes a lot of sense.
Another J-Ram? - Only player with multiple hits. Maybe they'll buff his contact compared to yesterday's HRD card.
Alek Manoah? - Also struck out the side but... Ugh. Who would really want this?
-
Goldschmidt - smacked a home run in his only at bat
-
I'd say Clase for sure.
They can't give them all to AL players can they? Goldy did go 1-1 with a HR and there was not much else to write home about offensively. He wasn't allowed a 2nd at bat like Stanton and Buxton.

Betts also had a RBI to open the scoring, maybe he gets one for that?

I’m disappointed that my dreams of a 99 Trea will not be realized tonight. I guess now I’m hoping for a Retro Finest Larkin collection reward in a few weeks.

See, that's butthead managing.
Not only that, the 1-7 batters were all righty to start the game.
I miss the days starters went 3 innings and batters got multiple AB's.
Snowflake society. -

I'd still give it to Goldy for obvious reasons. If they don't I will be mildly annoyed but I will be happy with his normal All Star card.
If they bypass both Goldy and Helsley for some reason then at least they would be saving me some stubs as I will not buy a pack.

Well, obviously Goldy going 1-1 with a 2 run shot gets a card. Kershaw gets a card for his inning of work.

I just hope they don't buff his pickoff move rating

It was a solo HR by the way.

Speaking of that, why did Soto play the whole game?

Yep, my bad. Forgot Manny Sucksado hit into a DP right before that.

I’d like a good Kershaw card too.

I just did a little quick tally and here is what I found
AL
- Otahni got one plate appearance while Martinez got 2
- Devers got 1 plate appearance while Ramirez got 2
- Most of the other starters got 2 at bats as did their backups.
NL
- Betts got one at bat while Soto replaced him and got 3
- Goldy got one at bat while 3 reserves each got one (why so many first basemen?)
- William Contreras got one at bat while Garret Cooper got 2 and Pujols got 1)
- Jeff McNeil got one at bat while Jake Cronenworth got 2
Didn't the fans vote in the starters because these were the guys we wanted to watch play the game? I realize that they tried to get everybody in but it seemed like they were poorly planned. Maybe some of these guys only wanted one at bat as to not tire themselves out but it just seems strange to me.
