More Team Captains

@nymets1987 I love the captains this year. They actually made them relevant and mixing and matching has been fun for me.

The captains themselves are better, being unable to earn them is what sucks.

The Captains have been much better this year and you are correct that the biggest issue is how to earn them.
Still, I've been having a lot of fun running my Yankees theme team so far with the Mattingly/Ford boosts. It will suck losing a lot of great pieces once S2 begins (Gleyber/Soriano/Dominguez/Sanchez), but they actually have a decent amount of available Core cards from the Subway Series program that will rollover. With those Captains boosts, guys like Paul O'Neill & Jeter, who are 85 diamonds, get elevated to a 93-94 overall so it definitely makes a difference. I have the team collection Bernie Williams at P5 - another Core card - and with the double boosts he plays up to a 98.

I don’t like having one player I have to use all year for the team boost and he’s an 87
-
Except he's like a 95 once the Tier 3 boost is applied especially if you have the pitching counterpart

Are these Captains going to get an upgrade?

I think if the captains are that good and viable it's more valuable to use low level cards with minimal wildcards in a deck. Could really change my opinions on sets and seasons. I don't need the captains to be easily obtainable but 40k packs and minimal XP/stub/rewards gain from pvp modes outside of ranked is brutal and near worthless grinding for.
People hate on captains but they are EXTREMELY valuable to budget non sweaty decks. -
I still think that all the individual team captains should make all cards core it’s hard to collect cards per season per MLB team.

Agreed. Really like captains to stay around
