Pete Rose incoming

To be fair, there would probably be a few more in the club if someone had let Aaron, Musial, and maybe even Jeter manage the team and write their names on the lineup card every day, even when they didnt deserve to be there.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think anyone active is close to joining this list in the near future.
-
Freddie's the closest at 2223. So 4+ years at his current pace.
Next behind is Altuve (2181), who seems to have a much tougher road.Rest of Top 5 Active:
Votto (2135) "Active"
McCutchen (2129)
Goldschmidt (2009)
Machado (1847) -
They'll never let Pete Rose in the game but he should be based on all the gambling that MLB promotes now lol
-
@Tylerslikewhoa_XBL They arent gonna add a Pete Rose this late into the game cycle. WILL NOT HAPPEN. He would have had some card available right away if he was in the game.

Hes right on pace for about 200 hits this year. If he stays healthy he is a lock for 180+ pretty much every season.

nope. maybe Ichiro
-
Ichrio just retired last year I believe so he won't be in the game again until next year or the year after

Ichiro retired at the beginning of 2019 and hasn't been in the game since.

Tomorrow is the 25th anniversary of Tony Gwynn’s 3,000th hit. The program is for him

And since we didn’t get our yearly Brewers’ Molitor card they’ll put him in there as well.

His 3000th hit was as a Twin. I think the Blue Jays didn't like Molitor's age after year 3 of his contract, combined with the fact that the third year as a Jay was affected by injury and his production had dropped from year 1 and year 2. I think they assumed he was done and didn't really make a serious effort to resign him, so he went hometown with the Twins. All he did in '96 was lead the league in hits with 225 and a .341 average, and crucially got that 3000th hit. The Jays could have had a legend achieve a great feat in their uniform. I think most of us following Molitor's career knew he wasn't done yet and that rebounding from injury was one of his greatest strengths. In the end I'm glad he went into the Hall as a Brewer, but if he'd stayed in Toronto and achieved 3000 as a Jay, I think he would have been tempted to go to the Hall as a Jay, given that he described the '93 season as with his WS MVP as the pinnacle of his career.

Do we think these will be Milestone cards or Hall of Fame?

Good question

Could be a mix of both?

Does anyone know if it'll be a actual program or pack? The calendar doesn't say
