These are great. Been looking forward to Lou and Kiner.
My guesses for rare:
Pitchers-
Orel Herschiser or
Bob Gibson (someday I'll be right)Hitters-
Stan Musial
Honus Wagner
Babe RuthThink we'll get Kiner and Honus in the same set?

Babe RuthThose sound about right. I’d be pretty stoked about a Honus like last year. I wouldn’t have much use for another Stan card but he deserved a 99. Orel and Bob Gibson wouldn’t be bad at all. We need a legit Gibson card with high hits per 9 and maybe outlier. I think he was a hard thrower.

I know the rare round will only be 3 players but let's hope its between Jimmie Foxx, Junior Griffey, Mickey Mantle or Willie Mays
As great as that would be I don't see it happening. Those just aren't the type of guys they throw into packs. They will either be program, Collection, or WS/BR

between 92-95 mph
How fast was Bob Gibson's Fastball? Bob Gibson's 4-seam fastball “sat” between 92-95 mph in the sample I considered. It's likely he actively varied his grip or intended velocity, producing a high velocity range, measured at 87-95, with numerous indications that he regularly exceeded 95 mphHe was responsible for getting the mound lowered after the 1968 season when his ERA was 1.12 though

I hope this pack brings the cost for some other cards down a bit. I have plenty of stubs, but paying 68-70k on a headliner (Edmonds) just feels wrong when I know he will probably drop like a rock right after the order goes through.
Price drop on Edmonds will occur when Set 49 packs start getting thrown around like candy.

If these are the base round I’m curious to see the rare round
We have to be due for a Rob Dibble diamond…

I’d honestly like to see a 99 Lindor or Adley but I don’t think it fits the theme of these packs. Plus with Rollins just coming out they might not want another switch hitting SS that might be as good or better.

I loved that Signature Lindor last year. Even is FOTF at the beginning of the season was one of my best cards. So far they're all legends but I don't see why they can't have flashbacks.

His swing is so good. I hit more home runs with him than any other SS by a long shot. Plus his defense is pretty much maxed out besides the arm.

@Dolenz_MLBTS the Cardinals outfield just got a lot more fun. Glad to see Lou get a 99 this year.

Ready for a Friday crash

I like where your head is at. I've got a handful of cards I'm waiting to go down a bit before I buy.

I can't even be disappointed at getting the base round when the choices are this good.
But hopefully the rare round has one of the OG legends -- Foxx, Big Train, Lefty Grove, Honus, Mathewson, Feller, or Babe.

I’d be cool with any of those except Matthewson . They can keep him. The others I’m all for it.

Christy says he can't break glass with his pitches and doesn't want to be a 99 HAHAHAHAHA

I wouldn’t even stick around to find out. I’d end up dashboarding by the time he finished that long a** windup. Lol

Still have no clue why they're called 'Juicy packs.' With my pack luck in '22, I'll get a dried up piece of lemon you put in a drink
aka Base round again. -
Hope we get one in the map tomorrow… unlikely but hope

Babe RuthWith Brock in the base round I think it is a long shot another Cardinal gets a card in this pack, especially so shortly after Edmonds. Those cards are coming the only question is when.
The next question is who do I bench for Brock. I think it may be Jordan Walker. I can then move Pujols from LF to 3B and add in Brock. I needed another right handed bat on the bench anyway and as well as I have done with Walker I still prefer to use legends over Future stars. That would leave Gorman as the only FS in the starting lineup.

Ill take really any kind of RP in the rare round like Dibble or Goose.
