I have to say they really nailed it on content this time around. There’s a lot of god squad type cards. Elly is incredible. All of the negro league cards are incredible. 99 Semien and Ronald Acura look insane. My only complaint is Shohei isn’t what I expected. I don’t like that they gave him really low vision and low control on his pitches but I guess we can’t have it all. Oh and of course a 99 Adley! Best catcher in the game now. Overall a big W
Side note I pulled 99 king Tuck…Let’s go
-
I forgot to mention the incredible collection cards on the team affinity. 99 JRam And Corbin Carroll are gonna be in most peoples lineups. Oh and 99 John Donaldson has outlier on his slider! 🤯
-
I like it in general, my bullpen for team is taking massive hit lefty reliever wise, no high sock and stirrup players. But besides my specific situation, I like everything the did.

Some of the changes to streamline the PXP missions on stuff like POTM seems very welcome we will see how it pans out.
There was a lot of great looking content but not a lot, in my opinion, to get excited about as a Cardinal fan.
90 Matt Holliday - Who wants a 90 overall at this point or who wants a Matt Holliday with power in the 70s
90 Masyn Winn - Again, who wants a 90 at this stage.
94 Alex Reyes TA Flashback - Not awful but not sure I use him with the new pitching captain.
95 Bob Gibson - Just what everyone wants a Captain who boosts Stamina more than anything else. And a downgrade from his 99 card
97 Jim Edmonds - Online reward and a downgrade from his set 1 99 card.
97 Arenado - This one I will use, luckily he is easy to get.And maybe I am not as much of a Cardinals fan as I think I am but in the rich history of Cardinal Players past and present they give us Ryan effing Ludwick for Team Affinity.

They always struggle to give Cardinals 99s for some reason even though there is plenty of history to do so
YES and who gives a h$ll about Ryan Ludwick, give me Edgar Renteria, Scott Rolen, Brian Jordan!

Willie McGee, Chris Carpenter, Ray Lankford, Ted Simmons.
I gotta say, I will play (I've done the NL Central Moments) but there is not a lot of motivation to do so.

When is Ron Santo coming

I love Willie McGhee. He was a machine. A friggin macheeen. Hey if SDS cannot secure rights to his likeness they could always go with this fella

I'd love a good Willie McGee card, not sure what they are thinking with Ludwick. Basically a forgettable one year wonder, good for the team at the time but not what most Cards fans are clamoring for...hell with the focus on 2 way players this year I would take a good Ricky Ankiel card over Ludwick
-
As a Yankees fan, I'm not thrilled and think this is the worst season to date. I really don't like that they broke up the TA set into it's own collection. With the sets as large as they are, this feels like a bit much to me
-
I will say that for the rest of the year I expect to never hear a Braves fan say that SDS hates their team and overlooks their players.

Dude, I literally said….really? Ryan effing Ludwick?

Or Angels! Both of them have pretty much a full Set 3 theme team on day one of Season 3.

But I think they are in both collections. Actually they must be. So you just get 2 for 1 with each collectible.

Pretty happy with the content as a Rockies fan.
97 Elias Díaz, finally get to replace 77 overall LS Diaz at catcher.
94 Hampson, will start on the TT at 2B.
97 Kris Bryant, might not make the squad but it’s nice having a good Season 3 and 4 option.
95 Greg Holland, will replace his 89 Core in the pen.
94 Pomeranz, much needed LH bullpen option.
95 Blackmon, nearly equal as to Set 1 97 if you use him at DH (where he belongs).
95 Freeland, pitch mix scares me but SP is hard to come by for the Rockies TT. Replaces 91 Tyler Anderson in the rotation.
97 Arenado, will probably use his 95 with Larry Walkers captain boost but it’s nice having a 97 option for Season 3 and 4.
94 Dickerson, probably won’t play much but I’ll take it for TA purposes.
95 Giambi, meh but a nice bench bat for the TT. -

I am not a Cards fan but in addition to the ones ypu mentioned, Vince Coleman is a card that I would love to see. He was one of my fav players growing up. Tommy Herr? (I think that is his name) that waould be a cool card too.

Thanks for sharing that. I truly enjoyed the synopsis you did. Very nice squad indeed. I’d hate to face Pomeranz very nasty the baseball becomes like a little nerf basketball when you make contact it just dies

Didn’t Pedro Guerrero play first for them or am I thinking of Terry Pendleton playing third. That’d be a couple of cards now
ps loved Herr he was solid. He went to the twins for somebody else pretty solid I can see the face can’t place the name

Tom Brunansky. Would’ve rather they kept Herr. And wish they would put Coleman in the game. Favorite player growing up. Three years with 100+ steals in a row, the first of which he didn’t even get called up until late April and still stole 110.
