    I hope they don't make me wait forever to get a 99 Arenado. I would have accepted Bregman, I would have accepted either Pitcher of The Month but passing up Arenado for Mookie does not sit well with me. Especially since this was the second time Arenado has won POTM and been passed over.

    Oh, well, there is a bright side to this for me, and that is that barring any other Cardinals being included in the program I can just skip the POTM grind this month.

    I’m sure Arenado will get a juiced up 97 card.

    I've always wanted to be first on something like this. I think I'm first.

    Need the 2B secondary or he’s straight to the bench.

    Who do you guys have at rf that you don't wanna bench? I mean, imo the best options there are Juan Soto and Babe and I do think I like Mookie's swing better than both of them, that may just be me tho idk

    I usually use Centerfielders in right if I’m not using Soto,Ruth,Clemente,or Griffey Sr. Tbh right now I have Corbin Carroll in right and he’s been insane for me. Batting almost .500 with 29 home runs.

    Cardinals bats we’re on fire in August. I’m sure there is at least 1 in the program.

    In my opinion they should not even include him if he's not going to get the lightening.

    Yeah Arenado should be the Lightning but this is a good pick to make more people happy. I get that we have lots of solid 3Bs. We also have loads of good outfielders too: McCutchen, JRod x2, Soto x2, Griffey and Mantle and Mays oh my (I know I know, they should be better and we will get better versions). There's also Riley Greene, Corbin Carrolll, Stanton, Buxton, Babe, Eric Davis, Cedric, Bellinger, Kaline, Yordan and many other solid cards with many more yet to come.

    I don't think position should have any bearing on who they pick. But I do get why Mookie is the more appealing all around player right now.

    This was a nice choice with Bregman and Arenado 3rd baseman, and we got a 3rd base overload recently with Brett, Riley, Donaldson and now Chipper. And a pitcher wouldn't have been worthwhile unless it was deGrom, but a better card for him later would be better.

    Mookie was voted the top RF and 2B option by metascore. He’s gonna be in a lot of peoples lineups for a long time. Mookie with 110 power might as well be 199 power. Mookie swing is a thing of greatness.

    No offence but MetaScore and the people involved with it are to blame for the downfall of this game and it’s online competitiveness. Any Mookie I have will and always will remain at RF, Soriano is the best 2B in the game full stop.

    I agree. I do think it kills a lot of the variety for competitive lineups. I use everyone but it does give an idea of how good players are.

    Player’s worth used to be based on how you can use them, now it’s just set a META and we will base them on that. That mentality borders with EA and as consumers we should expect that to continue.

    Explain to me how this is a game issue and not a community issue? I don't care about anyone else's opinion on cards or what the "metascore ranking" is and it doesn't hurt me whatsoever. It's still based on who you can succeed with, but continue to take every opportunity to tell us it's becoming ea without any reasoning or even connection to what's being discussed

    @Dolenz_PSN I just get a little annoyed by people who think he actually deserved it.

    Mookie definately deserved it: He hit .330/.383/.697 in August, tied for the major league lead with 9 HRs, and led everyone with 30 runs scored.

    BTW: Mookie deserved it in May also.

    The community, especially the veterans of the franchise haven’t opposed the 100+ attributes that get all the newbies d*cks hard and ruined all gameplay especially online for all of us, because “no one can hit without a PCI the size of North America”. Whether you accept MetaScore’s rankings, 90 % of the community does, there is literally a post confirming that based on this programs bosses. The show ‘17 was not META based, now in ‘22 with almost every conceivable console locked up by SDS they continue to push the outlier META while claiming that hitting and pitching have been equalized. As some one who has played this game for well over a decade I can tell you that this game is not at all balanced, that hitting and pitching has become progressively worse, and the Micro Transactions have become prioritized (see programs and their cards not being accessible once they are done). But please give me your counter as some clown who just started playing the game last year.

But please give me your counter as some clown who just started playing the game last year.

    lots to unpack so lets get started.

    1. you have no idea how long I've been playing this game.
    2. hitting and pitching is about as balanced as its been in the last 4 game releases. 19 and 20 were way more hitter friendly, they add PP last year to balance, went too far, made adjustment this year, isn't perfect but it is way more balanced than recent history.
    3. do you actually know how the 125 attributes actually work? do they scale back to 99 when being put through the compiler making it essentially 99/99 or is 99 the true baseline adding ~25% over the max to get 125/99?
    4. 90% of the community?? I am pretty active and have no clue what that even is. 90% of the community is more likely to have never sought out info beyond the game than be up on who some website thinks is the best.
    5. micro transactions have been prioritized, yes, which makes sense for a business with rising costs and a stagnant price point that hasn't moved at all with inflation since the 2000s. however, they make it easy to get all cards without spending money if you play consistently, which you cannot say about the rest of the industry, Just embracing MTX isn't nearly enough on its own to claim that this is becoming pay to win, which is the true complaint about EA games.

    Almost every complaint I see on here is just word salad making random unconnected points and then drawing a conclusion that is unsupported by their argument. Even if the point trying to be made could be solid, there is nothing to back it up or connect the dots. It just ends up being an incoherent rant from someone who is likely bitter about something when they type it out. I'm not here to say the game is perfect or even great, but the lack of logic being used to make these arguments is annoying and counterproductive.
