Craig Biggio, the players you listed (though I think Clase’s 2022 AS is still a good card), better Mays, and Gehrig.
Maybe a While Sox Future Star flashback Michael Jordan?
MJ a 99? He only played one MLB game and it was an exhibition game. If he was anyone else, he wouldn't have even had that opportunity.
Carlton Fisk
Eric Karros
Tim Salmon
Ron Cey
Steve Sax
Steve Yeager
Kirby Puckett
Kent Hrbeck
Derek Jeter
Alex Rodriguez
Chuck KnoblauchReally, too many to name.
Yes, I know they aren't in the game, but I wish they were. They gave Kirby a card last year, but it wasn't a 99.
As if that matters????
They gave Wander a "Boss Card" last year during a program before he had even had an MLB at bat.
DD is FANTASY. And even fantasy cringes at how fantasy DD is.

Oh for sure. That's s solid list too.
How does Eric Hosmer have a 99 but John Smoltz doesn't?
Why doesn't Kimbrel have a 99 or even a 90+ but every reliever who had a decent season this year does.
Elvis Andrus having a 99 is _______________

I'd hope a Finest would be rated higher than 85 but what do I know.

I think he means a RF representing 1985, which is (I think?) the year Mattingly won the MVP.

I’m thinking Smoltz or Mathewson will get the next 99 for the next/last event.

I was just messing around with MJ. And I also said Future Star flashback for a reason.

Also surprised Acuna oy has a 95. I know he didn't have a great year but he's still a massively popular player.
I was actually thinking the same thing. I actually used his HRD card more than any other card in that pack. Even without having a great year, he has had seasons that deserve the better card.
Events usually give cards until late. I remember one of the past games released a Gossage card in the beta test for the next game and it was an event reward when the test was over. -

Seeing guys like Andrus, Moustakas, Hosmer (to name a few) get juiced up 99's and some legit legends still either don't have one or the 99's are trash is the real head scratcher. Genuinely curious what SDS is thinking.

I would love Guidry and Jenkins but I can't believe my childhood hero, Rod Carew, didn't get one this year. I doubt we'll get any more this year. Over all the list was pretty good though.

Future Hall of Famer Eric Hosmer gets a 99. Rod Carew who only won 7 batting titles and topped out at .388 gets a 98. Seems right.
PSA- if you don't get sarcasm, this post is not for you :).
I'd like Guidry or Jenkins 99 too. Fun pitchers to use.

This thread is why I'm pretty disappointed in the forever program. Great opportunity to institute another positive change for this year and add some new cards to the forever program for those that have been along for the entire ride. I have very little desire to play since since that program came out with no new cards.
Amen

True in this regard, too

I have no idea why they did multiple 99s of guys. I really don’t understand why they didn’t/haven’t given better 99s of Gehrig and Mays. It’s kind of messed up Molitor and Mattingly didn’t get better cards. I get people’s frustration about Realmuto.
But I can’t believe they’ve disregarded relief pitchers so much: Smoltz, Jansen, Fingers, Miller, Smith, Nen. I find it odd so many guys at the same position have been left out from better cards.
And don’t get me started in some of the decisions of who they did give us 99s of. Just one example above being Andrus.

Multiple 99's and attributes over 100 always reminds me of this...

I do wonder if they did this knowing that they might be changing the ratings system next year. G
Also get a feel how the community reacts to so many 99s.
