I've seen this post a couple times, but I wanna see who ya'll think it is gonna be, I'm thinking it's gotta be a pitcher cause they've done infield and outfield alr
I could be wrong but I think it will just be an announcement for the next big collection.
Can't see them dropping a big collection the same time they drop a new program that should have '30' bosses which will probably be part of said collection.
That would make those cards EXTREMELY expensive.
Brett collection released with the future stars program. this year, and they did on previous years too.
But was there an FS collection that was part of getting Brett?
Yep. It was the one most people skipped.

Getting only an announcement would be real disappointing ngl. Also, 30 bosses? Did you mean three or would they actually drop 30 bosses lol
He meant 30. It is going to be legends of the franchise
Oh I see, I don't think I've been there for any program like that so it kinda caught me off guard
It'll be the same same format as the All Star, future stars and face of the franchise programs but it'll be all legends. Basically exactly like Team Affinity 4 last year if you were around.
We know there will be 30 (1 for each team) and for All Stars we got 18 on the rewards path. My guess is it'll mirror that program.

Yeah I was barely around for the all star program so I didn't really remember. And I always get confused when some1 says team affinity cause I didn't play 21 (just a little but all rtts)

Last year's Finest Trea Turner.

I mean, I kinda see why they're gonna give Clemente another 99 and free. I think it's pretty much because he's a little too low on the power and being a collection reward they want ppl to be kind of compensated idk (obviously this could not be the case and also the card could be worse, which would be a huge L) but giving the best pitcher in the game an even better card would be kinda wild

Addressing both points above:
The milestone Clemente card IS free.
The milestone card was "technically" av day 1. You combine those stats for free available day 1 and that's a hell of a compensation.
If someone just unlocked the card, you're compensation is the card and advancement in the LS collection.
Moral of the story: early bird gets the Worm.

Seaver with outlier? Or Gibson with outlier?
What about Maddux with outlier? Or Hershiser with outlier?

I posted on Reddit who I thought would be considered. I'll post the short version here (sorry! I'm sleepy):
- Justin Verlander, Corey Kluber (The Show 20 card), Rickey Henderson, Albert Pujols, Jake Arrieta, or Trea Turner are the most likely, in my opinion.
But I think others may be considered, too, such as: Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, Greg Maddux, Roy Halladay, Max Scherzer, Jacob deGrom, Ken Griffey Jr., Hank Aaron, Mickey Mantle, Joe Mauer, Adley Rutchsman, Chris Sale, Jimmy Rollins, Bob Gibson, Orel Hershiser, or Jimmie Foxx.
If it's not one of those players, I'd be shocked.
Do you think they would make Griffey Jr. the big collection after he was the main big one last year?

That's exactly what they did for every big collection last year I believe. Mariano was TA 2, Mookie was TA3, Kershaw was TA 4 and Griffey was TA5.
@SaveFarris_PSN can you confirm this?
Noob question what does TA 2,3,4 etc stand for?

Do you think Mays’ and Griffey’s 99 should be their best cards?
Edit: Almost forgot Gehrig’s 99

TA is Team Affinity. They got rid of it this year.

Those were all obtainable for free with no time limit. Though I’m not saying they will not release it on the same day, I just wouldn’t use last year’s TA as examples for reasons why.

Collection reward is most likely a flashback as legend candidates have a good chance to be in the featured program

I know, I was just making over emphasized joke about the amount of pitcher’s with outlier. Pedro got it, he didn’t throw hard enough to get it. Maddux and Hersh were masters of their craft; they used good pitch mixes, great movement, and command of the zone.

Agreed but it’s a shame their supreme ability doesn’t translate into the game.
