I'll admit it: I overreacted (OOP)
-
Its still not what I want to see in September, however:
This is a better set than TA 2.1 this year or Snapshot last year
About 1/3 of these have a good enough reason to exist, pretty much all the the ones that were drafted at these positions as well as the pitcher DHs. Rivera in CF is an easter egg for Yankee fans, fine.
The high school ones are a stretch, as are things like mays at 3B (A met card at 1B would make better sense)
But it wasnt 'lazy' like some are saying and Im sure there are people that will enjoy it. Im someone that likes incognito after all and am still waiting on Polar Bear, Flying Squirrel, and the true "The Kid" -
@Teak2112_MLBTS I'm with you. I think this actually is OK given the "quiet" month of September. I still would have preferred this program in the off-season.
That said, SDS certainly could have done a better job explaining this. I went in thinking this was a bunch of random assignments, but when I got into the Moments, I could see that there was thought put into it. SDS really should have communicated better. A Twitch stream would have been nice in this case, since this was something different for MLBTS.
My advice? If you're not going to do a Twitch stream, run everything past @SchnauzerFace_MLBTS , @Dolenz_PSN, @Ericulous1_PSN and @SaveFarris_PSN first. They'll tell you if it's a good idea or not, and how to actually implement it.

I'm actually intrigued by a few of them, even though I'm not a fan of the idea overall. They could have called them "Multiverse" or "Alternate Universe" series. The one I'm most interested in though is the Roy Halladay card, he plays everywhere.

It’s fun. They did it well.

Some of these cards are incredible. DeGrom, Greinke, Harper and Elly in particular for me.

@BJDUBBYAH_PSN Jansen with the Cruz boost.

Absolutely. Cruz makes almost all of these cards even better

I overreacted as well. It's been fun. The USA map has been fun as well.
Randy Johnson is insane!
I wonder how casuals who will get this free through PSN will take this. They may never know Randy & Mo Rivera were known for their pitching dominance, not how many no-doubter home runs they can hit, or 'Chuck Nasty' and his nasty pitches, instead of his offense. They'll F.A.F.O. eventually, though 🤪 -

The OOP-concept is actually pretty well thought, because it is mostly not random. I like the reading fun little stories / background when starting the moments
