Unless something drastically changes its Mookie. His numbers at the top of that line up are staggering. I mean he could have a .325 35 hr 115 rbi 135 run 30 SB season. I know its early...and i know he's at arguably the top line up in baseball...BUT..he sitll has to produce and man has he.
He also might win a Gold Glove at SS too lol.

Classic lighting player 2017 Cody Bellinger

Steven Kwan is hitting .372 he could be a dark horse for lightning player.

Mookie is the obvious choice but they don't always go with the obvious choice. It's more likely they give it to a big name this year (and last) than in previous years when they would often purposely bypass the big names, holding them back for special card series.
I don't know how they are planning to do it this week. Do we get a single lightning card and then the normal Season Awards Drop 4?
If so then it is a shame for guys that had a solid month without having a stellar week. On the selfish side, I am thining about a player like Masyn Winn who has a .362 batting average, .396 OBP, 4 stolen bases, 2 doubles and 2 triples and currently only has a 70 overall bronze card.

Don't forget there's still 14 days left in April counting today... Plenty can change.
And Steve Kwan as the lightning would mean a riot in these parts.

If they gave it to Kwan, we'd lose half the casual playerbase for at least a week.
The other half would be flocking to the forums complaining like a woman pms'ing -
I’m guessing a 97 overall Mookie in a pack and a 95 overall Witt Jr. that you can earn through Season Awards collection.

It will be a normal drop#4 and the lightning is for collecting 4.

I hope Elly lights things up for the rest of April and gets the Lightning!

Your current WAR Top 10:
Mookie Betts- already a high diamond
Bobby Witt Jr
Anthony Volpe
Kutter Crawford
Jose Altuve
Paul Blackburn
Ronel Blanco- already Season Award
Ketel Marte
Jose Berrios
Reynaldo LopezAmong those choices, I could see either Volpe or Crawford.
I'll take Ketel
