Retro Finest Clemente.

Will they give him 100 power to both sides and 90+ speed to make it better than his current card?
-
The current Milestone 99 Clemente is almost identical to his Signature 99 card from last year. Max contact/fielding with mid-to-high 80s power. Even if it is free for all, there is no way they are going to release a worse version this late in the game cycle so you have to assume they will bump up his power since that is the only meaningful attribute they could improve upon compared to his other cards. Maybe a slight speed/baserunning boost as well.
-
It is the swing animation that dies him in compared to a Mookie card.
-
Is his swing really bad? I always thought people liked it lol.I used it last year and didn't mind it

No. His swing is fine
-
I’m assuming a +10 on power attributes and speed that’s probably all you can really upgrade
-
He never had great speed so maybe a bit better stealing and speed. Maxed out fielding acrossed the board that way he would be a diamond no matter which spot he went to and probably better vision.
-
I'm excited about this card. I still love his milestone card, it's been one pf my favorites since release. Hoping they give him more speed and power. I guess as mentioned that's really all they can do.
-
Dupe post. Go Clemente.

I've been thinking the exact same thing. Seems tough to outdo his other 99.
And a 99 Clemente with juiced power seems almost too good for a free card.
I guess since some don't like his swing, he's not one of the most coveted players, but I think his swing this year is more than solid.
-
I say 90/90 power with 80ish speed

You're probably being realistic and likely right.
But that's barely better than my P5 Milestone Clemente and would be a bit disappointing.
-
If all hitting stats don't reach 100 he will be hard to use. I doubt they touch his speed. His Milestone card was really good back in May not so much right now. So they really need to step up the stats on this one and make a card worthy of Clemente. Of course watch them troll us and give us a worse Clemente. Like a 98 that has stats similar to Griffey's.

Don’t think SDS would mess up a free card. Just not like them.

99 Griffey 2nd Half would disagree.

So stupid to put out ANOTHER 99 card and just make up fake attributes. Sigh....

It’s just as fake as putting George Brett and Mookie Betts in the same lineup.

I meant another 99 Clemente card, if that's what they're doing. They're all fake nonsense, but if they juice his power just to differentiate...it's getting out of hand.
-
So they juiced his power a bit, gave him 3 more speed. Basically the card that his MS should have been. But I probably paid over a million to get the MS set complete, this one I get for free. Makes sense.
