New cards for today 6/14
-
I am doing this more out of habit these days. The motivation is ebbing.
-
If tha Rains card goes low enough I'll pick it up
-
Well i got to get the Tauchman card at least
-
They dropped another pack, more of the ingodnito cards
-
Here is the new Pack. For cardinal fans they are starting out like last season.
1 card earnable in TA
1 card as a Collection Reward
1 Card in a pack as the rare round.They are making these names up right? I have never heard Tommy Edman be referred to as Eddie and as a 3rd baseman?

Is it just me, or do the Oof sizes keep growing with each pack release? These are literally the Incognito cards from last year. SDS is just embarrassing themselves here.

From their Twitter :

The jury may still be out on who has the best card in #MLBTheShow 24 but we’re sure this FREE Diamond will be further evidence for making your case.
Head over to the Show Shop at noon to get this free All-Star Series player!
Probably an 87-88 Aaron Judge.

Expensive, very cringe, and super lazy on their part. It's got it all (except desirable cards).

I dont know....according to Google and MLB.com, its really a thing...

If you google (players name) nickname, it has all these players with all these names. Not sure if its some made up nonsense they coordinated with the league or what but i've never heard a single announcer around the league say any of these nicknames.

I've never heard him referred to as "Eddie", but maybe it was during the weekend where players used their nicknames. I tuned out for that nonsense. He has played 94 games at third, mostly over his first two seasons, but it is a stretch to have that as his primary position.
SDS is embarrassing themselves with the return of these awful incognito cards. What's next, Godzilla?

None of these cards were released last year.
-
Correct, Edman has NEVER been 'Eddie' and WHY is it Edman again, he had a S1 that could easily be a wildcard slot. SDS is so lame and lazy
Still looking for that upgraded Winn. He has been their most consistent player this year
-
I dont get the hate for incognito cards. They are fine. Far better than the recycled prospect slop we got with TA
Better than that hyper series they have been using.They are also releasing a fair amount of the rookie/all star/second half heroes cards as well which are even better.
Just killing time really until they start rolling out the all star cards. Hopefully number retirement makes a return this year too.

According to his Wikipedia :
Edwards was sometimes known as "C.J." (for Carl Jr.) in the minor leagues, a name which Joe Maddon continued to use while the two were with the Cubs. Edwards also earned the nickname "The String Bean Slinger" for his strong arm combined with his skinny physique (6' 3", 170 lbs), which he has adopted for the back of his personalized jersey during the annual Players Weekend.[

Can't wait for [censored] Mountain.
-
I'm hoping they at least put one of these packs in one of the new conquest maps, but I doubt it.
-
I don't understand the hate fir nickname cards. It's a card . It's content . This is why legitimate complaints go unheard , because in a sea of bs complaints, real complaints get drowned out. But people are going to people I guess
