Austin Riley is the July LIghtning Player
-
To me there was no doubt that it would be Riley an I think it couldn't have been easier for SDS to do Austin.
Going to be a good time today with the Shark Map, Monthly Awards, Double XP. Market about to be in shambles.
Love it

Need that sweet sweet 2x xp to help me push to the finish. Need about 400k more to finish the program.

Well deserved but the Yankees fans are already complaining hard and trying to make it seem like Austin was totally undeserving..
I can see why, they are really lacking in good flashback cards for their team.
Anyone who understands how this game works should have easily known it wouldn't be Judge. Even as a Yankee fan myself, the guy has a 94 LS and a 97 AS card. Plus Riley has far and away the better numbers anyway.
I've never understood why fans have such a hard time being objective (this goes for most, if not all, teams)
The only other person I could have seen was Dylan Cease only because we haven’t gotten a lightning pitcher yet. But I’m ok with Riley, hopefully he has some OF it 1B eligibility

I'd be shocked if he isn't a 97 in the program (or whatever the high diamond ones are). Dude missed out on an ASG card and didn't get anything last month.

They’ve always got last years Finest card they can throw out as a henchman/event reward/whatever.

I wish they would actually bypass Carpenter this month and give us a sweet flashback of his 99 overall POTM from July 2018 card

I love my work schedule, but these new programs always start when I'm at work!
I'll be starting at least 9 hours later than most of you.
Vacation is looming, so I hope to be there at the start of these for a change. -

Vacation is looming, so I hope to be there at the start of these for a change.I am sure you will still pass many of us up soon enough. I do everything I can to try and not burn out while playing so today I will probably just concentrate on moments, both the last of the Topps Now and the POTM and save the Shark Map for tomorrow.

I’m right there with you man….think I wrapped up at 620 last night and just wondered how much of a late punch I could really make….400 seems like a lot in the last few days, so I’ll likely just see if I can make the out of control packs just to get my 3 gold free agents again!!

I am a Yankee fan and I didn’t need another Judge card.
I also agree with your statement about fans being objective. -
Austin Riley will have dead Red,breaking ball hitter,first pitch hitter,unfazed,situational hitter and daytime quirks. 🤯
So he will have an advantage early in the count and late in the count in any situation with any pitch. That’s insane to think about. So even if his stats are 115 contact for example it’ll be more like 125 at all times. Crazy -
Does anyone know what time the new content will drop? I know the schedule just said “Wednesday Afternoon” the last time I checked.

Their updates and content drops are usually always at 3PM (ET).

I also agree with your statement about fans being objective.What’s funny is I got Judge paralleled and he’s a 99

Well deserved but they need to somehow set his card apart from others. He's not going to replace Brett for me.....Big Hurt card sucks for me, I like Papi at 1B, and my OF I have J Rod, Stanton, Cutch, I mean SO many cards to choose from that play well.....I just don't see how Riley is going to replace any of them unless they give him some really crazy quirks or something.
