I wish monthly awards were core, I don’t mind topps now being set 1, but if Acuna is the lighting it kind of sucks because they come out and it’s a week before set 2. But other than that, I like the choices.

Well, you do get to use set 1 through July 7th so that will be two full months.

Acuna is one of those who deserve it, along with Chapman, but we learned last year when they constantly overlooked/ignored Judge, Goldy and Arenado that deserving it is not their only criteria.

SDS is really trying to crush flipping. Another No sell group of cards that were sellable last year. It’s by far my biggest gripe this year. I get it. They want us to use our credit cards. But it would be nice if there was some flexibility with the market:

It's not just flipping, from my experience even earning stubs by doing the content is greatly reduced. People made fun of Weekly Wonders last week only giving 500 stubs so what did SDS do? Made the payout this week 250 stubs.

Seems like your best bet is to get lucky with the packs your earn because that is your primary source, at least for those of us who can't be bothered to flip.

On the plus side the Awards event is awarding a 95 Cardinal version of Matt Carpenter that hopefully won't be too expensive

Same design as last year?

Shout out to last year's Art Department.

You never know... the Lightning player could be "Core" but will most likely be "Set 1" which can still be used as "Wild Card" after Season 2.
