Any predictions on players for next Team Affinities?
-
Anyone but Soroka for the Braves - great pitcher in real life - online will get shredded
-
My guesses are based on the fact that they will use non-diamond players who either have been or have the serious potential to be
mid-tier to high tier diamonds and that these diamonds will be rostered fewer and far between given that they will require more of a grind per team and be more of a reward for those who grind with their favorites for their favorites.Red Sox: Bogaerts 90
Yankees: Severino 91
Blue Jays: Bichette 88
Orioles: Means 88
Rays: Glasnow 90Indians: Clevinger 91
Tigers: Cabrera 91
White Sox: Abreu 90
Twins: Kepler 89
Royals: Salvador Perez 89Angels: Heaney 88

Rangers: Andrus 89
Athletics: Luzardo 90
Mariners: Haniger 88Nationals: Turner 91
Marlins: Caleb Smith 88
Braves: Soroka 89
Mets: Syndergaard 91
Phillies: Hoskins 90Pirates: Musgrove 88

Rockies: Dahl 89
Diamondbacks: Ray 88

We seriously have a guy arguing that Eric Hosmer was better than Alex Gordon in here?
I’m glad other people already pulled out the stats and I didn’t have to do it this time.

Here’s my Predictions assuming they still are active players ranging from gold or lower:
Red Sox: Bogaerts
Yankees: Gardner
Blue Jays: Giles
Orioles: Chris Davis
Rays: KiermeirerIndians: Carrasco
Tigers: Miguel Cabrera
White Sox: Abreau
Twins: Berrios
Royals: Salvador PerezAngels: Pujols
Astros: could really be any of those cheaters but I’ll guess Reddick
Rangers: Andrus
Athletics: Sean Manaea
Mariners: who knows, Vogelbach?Nationals: Tre Turner
Marlins: Urena
Braves: Soroka
Mets: Syndargaurd
Phillies: HoskinsPirates: Taillon
Cubs: Schwarber
Cardinals: Carpenter
Brewers: Braun
Reds: CastilloDodgers: Muncy
Rockies: Desmond
Diamondbacks: Archie Bradley
Padres: Hosmer
Giants: SandovalNow I’m kind of hoping they change it up and instead of doing just present players, use past players. For instance, like a Kevin Youkillis for the Red Sox or a Tim Lincecum for the Giants.
For the padres to get a good hosmer flashback, he’d have to have a good season there...
Didn't want the Royals to sign Gordon. Hugely overated player in Royals history. Didn't want them to sign Hosmer either for that amount. Glad they didn't but he is still a better overall player than Gordon.
Hosmer
9 seasons
9.9 WAR, 107 wRC+, -7 DRS/-27.1 UZRGordon
13 seasons (2 injury shortened)
32.1 WAR, 103 wRC+, 112 DRS, 87.3 UZRWho's overrated???
Hosmer is as overrated as it gets...
Gordon has always been slightly underrated if anything, for his career... He's an amazing fielder.
Hosmer isn't even half of Gordon for his career...One of those numbers guys huh? Do you watch the Royals? I watch them all the time. Hosmer is better in almost every offensive category than Gordon with 1,000 less ab's. Although Gordon has more steals, Hosmer would beat him in a foot race. WAR is really not a great stat. It just says Gordon's replacement was worse than Hosmer's.
I've been a season ticket holder since '98, so I'll chime in. Yes, I've seen a game or 80 a year in person. Hosmer should have been traded after year three, before he started pulling arbitration dollars from the organization. He would have brought in a huge haul, before everyone else figured out he was a paper tiger.
Oh well, we got one ring, now we're back to being the Royals.

Lowkey want to do Orioles in hopes of a high diamond Manny Machado

Paper tiger.. well said!

There’s a leaked 89 Bichette which would make perfect sense for the Rockies next card in TA.
-
I don’t think they’ll all be FOTF cards run I think they’ll mix it up with flashbacks for some teams and FOTF cards for others and stuff like that.

Dumb question but Dante or Bo?

I also think that now or in the 3rd stage of this is it sticks to FOTF cards the non diamond LS card rule will go out the window and we’ll see some of the lower diamonds get them. Just imo.

Dante. It didn’t have any card art, just attributes. It had an age but I can’t remember what it was.
