Your Card reveals and teases for Season 3
-
Signature Lou Merloni incoming.
-
I really, REALLY wanted to go with new Legend Benny Agbayani, but I couldn't find a good enough shot of him in a Red Sox Uni that showed his number.
-
I am thinking we should start seeing card reveals soon. New TA with a new card series, New Season Awards, New Ranked, BR and events.

@Dolenz_PSN Cardinals need a handful
90+ Mcgwire
90+ Musial
90+ Edmonds
85-90 Burleson (top 2 hitter this season on the team with nothing out there)
85-90 Pallante (best pitcher for them 2nd half) -

85-90 Pallante (best pitcher for them 2nd half)There are a lot of Cardinals we could get. McGwire, Musial and Edmonds are the obvious ones. The other two you mention are probably not likely unless they get a Topps Now or Season award.
But there is still only a
92 Goldschmidt
88 Arenado (he has a 97 Rockies card)
84 Holliday (He has a 99 Rockies card)I'm surprised we have not seen a Goldschmidt MVP card since he won the award a few years back.
That said I don't expect to see many of them at the outset of season 3.
-
Im looking forward to season 3. I think they did a nice job pivoting mid season 2 with a much better power curve and starting with the All Star game, solid content.
My guess for Season 3 collections-
Nolan Ryan
Jackie Robinson
Ronald Acuna JrBosses-
Pedro Martinez
Hank Aaron
Sammy SosaMookie will be a Core collection or the new TA collection
-
Lou Brock
Lee Smith
Ozzie Smith
Pujols- can someone explain to me why guys go away for 5 or so years when they retire? He may not be an active member of the players Union but he still works for MLB. Like….make it happen. -

Like….make it happen.While I would like a 99 Brock, I am not sure we will get one since we got a 97 as a season 1 Collection reward. I am trying to not get my expectations too high.
Lee Smith - Yeah, I could see that but he played for a lot of teams that they could give him to.
Ozzie Smith got a 95 a few weeks back in the Heyward mini season.
I'll take any of them they want to give a 99 Cardinals card for but I was mainly looking at those who were missing entirely (McGwire, Edmonds) or were stuck with bad cards (Musial)

2 days away and practically no reveals other than the dev blog.

I do find that strange. I really expected them to come hot and heavy today and tomorrow.
All we have gotten today is a generic graphic for the next roster update.

My main hope is that they don't hide another highly revered Cardinal player behind the season collection for the third straight season. The main possibilities would be a 99 Musial or McGwire
I'd LOVE a 99 ovr Cy Young Chris Carpenter.

I did not intend to make this thread about the Cradinals but they are not releasing any info yet.
Yes, a Chris Carpenter card would be nice. Bob Gibson has been the only legend starting pitcher for the Cardinals in this game for as long as I can remember. Some of the Flashback and Signature Wainwright's filled the gap but now that he has gone we are back to only Gibson.
My wishlist includes MVP Willie McGee (Drop Ludwick for Willie) and Hall of Fame Switch Hitting catcher Ted Simmons.

And we have our first reveal. I assume these are Team Affinity Cards. Are we seeing a theme? At first I thought something about teams who drafted these players but it does not hold up for Nolan Ryan and Jonah Heim.
Oh goodie a 3rd A's Mark Mcgwire card while the Cardinals still have 0.

Oof, L

Why the F do they do this, I really despise the game this year. So sloppy with no balance.
Maybe we get another Ryan Ludwick card!
-
Well my guess is- it paves the way for a 99 Cardinals card.
-
It’s definitely the new Team Affinity series. The question is, what is the bottom half of the card? I hope it’s something similar to a captain- an incentive to use these cards for strategy. My fear is that it’s something hokey like the snapshot or Incognito cards that have nothing to do with gameplay.
Thoughts anyone? We know Randy Johnson is another of these.

I realize that.
The question is will I still be playing at that stage?

I had thought early career cards, but Ryan would be a met or Angel in that case
Im worried about whatever is starting in the bottom right of those cutoffs, it could be taking up too much space on the card
Otherwise these look like something that could have been an actual early 90s card set aesthetically
-
@Dolenz_PSN They have such a terrible model. They release the best cards in late fall and winter when no one is playing in HOPES that it will bring in players. But better cards wont bring in players on a dead game at that phase. They would beef up their early and mid season numbers with better cards
