As a Die-hard Cubs fan I don't know why we have 3 Sosa cards and have yet to see a Mark Grace or Ron Santo?? Only 1 Sandberg? At the same time Sosa was hitting bombs, while cheating the game, Mark Grace was getting more hits and doubles than anyone in the MLB for a decade! 3x All-star and multiple Gold Gloves, twice as many walks than k's throughout his 13 year career, not too mention the only Cub to hit for the cycle in the last 30 years and he can't even get a Captain card WHEN HE WAS THE CUBS CAPTAIN!!! Sammy, with his corked bats and juiced muscles still had to hit the balls which took tremendous skill, I get it, but he gets 3 cards while guys like Gracie and Santo get nothing? Come on y'all. Share the wealth with some of the teammates of these guys who were getting overlooked. Surely it can't be licensing because that other joke of a baseball game gave Gracie a shot. Come on SDS, show some love here to one of the 90's Cubs greats and most recent inductee into their Hall of Fame as well
A Mark Grace card would pretty sweet.
They would need to add the "Slump Buster" ritual though.

Loved Grace and how he played the game.
His interviews on Jim Rome were epic…which is where the “slump buster” story came from, I’m like 99% sure.
And Slump Buster would be the ONLY “Incognito” card I’d ever use.
Not sure his card would be popular though. Didn’t have much power.

Don't have anything to say but this game needs:
"Wall-E" Joyner (any card that's 99)
Jim "The One Armed Bandit" Abbott (No hitter card)
Lenny "Nails" Dykstra (Alot of that WS team needs cards but not Mitch Williams)
Lance "The Puma" Berkman
Carlos "El Caballo" Lee
Victor "The Hitter" MartinezList goes on.

Solid list - loved the Mitch Williams comment. What would be great if they issued a card for him as the MVP for the Jays.
Loved the way Dykstra played the game…he was old school no doubt about it and as tough as, well, nails.
Edit: Oh and Abbott’s no-hitter was incredible…but in my book nowhere near as impressive as his 2 career hits. That may appear as sarcasm but I assure you that’s not so. It’s been a long established cliche that hitting a mlb fastball is the most difficult thing to do in professional sports and he did it one handed….twice. The no-hitter takes effort from all 9 but he got those hits all by himself. He was an incredible player but I’m betting if our friends at SDS tried to code in a single player with one-arm they’d have to burn their source code and probably the building they work in as well and start from scratch
