Who is it going to be?

Kyle Schwarber,
Wishful thinking obviously -
Definitely Schwarber

Corbin Carroll just teased his 99 OVR lightning card on Instagram. Hope Schwarber is in the pack or in the SA program..

It's a Good choice. His best card is a Set 2 89 overall captain card.
In the last month, from Aug 10th to Sept 10th Fangraphs shows him as
2nd in HRs (tied with 3 others)
1st in Runs scored
5th in RBIs
And tied for 4th in WARThe players ahead of him in WAR during that period were
- Lindor (Already got a 99 Season Award card)
- Judge (Already has a 99 Season Award card) (and a 99 All Star card)
- Bobby Witt Jr (Already got a lightning card) (also has a 99 HR Derby card)
Eugenio Suarez should be right there in the running and may get a card but even he has a 99 prime card already.

Carroll is cool. I felt like I was one of the only people who liked his 99 card last year. Apparently everyone hates his swing but I liked it haha.
-
I don't get the Schwarber votes. He could get a card for the lead-off HR milestone but they would not make that a lightning card. Looking at the Carrol card they went between 8/7 and 9/1
In that date range Schwarber hit .177 with only 4 HRs.
3 of those HRs actually happened on Aug 7th. He hit only 1 HR the rest of the month. -

I don't mind it either. It's not an amazing swing but good enough that I look forward to trying him out.
Now, that Brenton Doyle Lightning got no playing time. Hate his swing.

As a Reds guy, I’m hoping Ty France gets a card in the SA pack. He’s been really good since the trade, and especially good these last few weeks.

If nobody saw. It's confirmed via SDS's Facebook that it is Carroll

@BeetleCoyote832_XBL Ty France has always been an Astros killer with Sea and Cinny now, wish we would have picked him up, lol.
-
Strange that they didnt release it last week, as its for his August potm.
-
@MrDeweyCoXX_PSN haha, he had himself a series. I’m disappointed he didn’t get a card. Hoping he does at some point. Got a really good swing.
