Andrew McCutchen is the “big” collection reward. L or W?
-
When I first saw that tweet I thought Cutch was going to be in the next HL pack. Was really pumped for him as I love his swing.I guess I'll have to wait a while to get him now.

W. It's a finest card so his Speed will be in the 90s, power should range from 80/100 on both sides (If not more), fielding will be a diamond, and it should be one of the best contact cards so far this year. I'll happily take this card as a collection reward.
His 2020 card was amazing and that was only a 97, 112 con R, 94 con L, 83 Pow R, 99 Pow L, 83 Vis, 101 Clu, 85 Spd, 70 Stl, 70 BRG. Now imagine what his numbers will be like for a finest 99.
I’m thinking he will be more like 115/125 contact, 110/120 power after looking at the Maz Retro we got recently. Should be excellent in the current LHP META.
That's exactly what I was thinking, while being one of the best fielding cards, and 95 speed is not out of the question.

What are your thoughts. Is this the best SDS could do?
It will probably be a real solid card. I was hoping for Legend collection not another Battle Royal/World Series type of reward.
-
Naah, love the player but I like using the Griffeys, 99 Trouts and Bonds (hopefully) of the world.
-
I'm happy for you guys that are excited about McCutchen. Personally I'm not thrilled about him so I will save what stubs I have. Only issue I see for me is that he will now be required to complete the next collection which may or may not be a player I would want or like. I would hate for the next one to be Mays, Mantle, Griffey or even Chipper for that matter and then not have enough to do that collection. Congrats to the masses.

You can probably bank on the next one being a pitcher and the final one back to a skilled player. I’m excited as the retro Finest have all been great….the game itself is “meh”, but the content is all aces IMHO.

Lotta y'all talkin' like Cutch owes you money in real life. The absolute disrespect given to Uncle Larry in this thread is outrageous.
Outrageous!
Good day!

W imo. I wanted Mantle, Willie or Hank. I was pleasantly surprised with this so W.
@Alpha-WoLf-x1x_XBL lol no one wants him huh?
Not for the cost buddy.
-
McCutchen is a W. A 5 tool player. The only reason people are saying L is because they expected someone else.
-
Frankly, disappointed, but not L. Big collections are always welcome and huge W. This McCutchen card will be undoubtedly great.

Yikes….guess I should have sold my extras yesterday…..expecting these will now drop.
Nothing against cutch, I’ve liked his cards from previous years, but just not an elite level collection reward player.
Out of all the players to choose from. Griff, Pedro, Mantle etc. They picked an average player with no appeal.
There not going to put out a card like Griffey Jr. or Mantle as the second collection. They are end type players. Unfortunately, we never see a 99 Griffey until late in the game.

Can’t wait until I can get him. Love his swing
-
Hate it, I'd prefer a legend. But I obviously only speak for myself. I had been buying up a few cards in anticipation of this, now I can hold off because I will probably not even use the card when I get it.

What if his attributes are other wordly?

Because they call it a legends + flashback collection, after Brett (legend) I had anticipated a flashback, similar to the mookie release last year.

I don't play DD to have the best possible team, I play DD to use cards of players I like, so nope, even if he has 125 power and contact vs both sides, I dont see me using him.

Makes sense, but if it had to be a flashback, how about a player who will be going into the HoF? I'll be bias and say I'd have loved a 99 Votto. Not that anyone else wants another LH 1B.

They call it that because you need to collect the Legend and Flashback cards to complete it.

People would be freaking out if the reward was Votto…and not in a positive way.

I’m pretty sure there wasn’t a lot of positive feedback when everyone found out Brett was the first big collection reward, but anyone who has him or who faces him knows he’s the best position player in the game.
Cutch has a great swing and with juiced attributes he will be amazing as well. I hope people don’t go after him so I won’t have to face him as often.
