Early review for Josh Gibson
-
I get this is a first, reviewing a card a month before its released but a few things I noticed. His swing looks really good in the video. His front leg load and hands seem to work well together. Sometimes if there is too much of a disconnect between the load and the hands it makes the swing bad. It would be terrible if a card with this much anticipation had a Mike Schmidt swing. The downside is in the video it shows contact 82 power 110. Solid card that will probably play well early but that means we most likely won't see the end game monster card until late in the Summer.

I hope for a power creep approach. His early 90-95 cards will be at least 110 power apiece, like an early babe ruth card (he is the black babe ruth afterall). They know what we want: NOT A CHASE PACK PAYWALL NONSENSE. We want a Finest Josh Gibson in September - Max Everything. 99 Fielding. Make it the greatest card you've ever released. It's Josh Gibson, give that man the respect he deserves - and they will.

@ANF_GOLD99 Chase packs need to stay, think they make packs valuable, during the year, usually standard packs become meaningless around July, and there is no paywall.

@baseball229056_XBL I just assumed they would follow the same route as 2023 with the 1st version of all the Negro League players and have them be lower rated at launch and higher rated in the middle of the season.
