TA Season 3 Pt. 2

@GoozeFn_PSN maybe they will shake it up and give you a Manuel Margo this time!
-
Seeing some mixed reactions on Twitter.
Some think they all are bad.
Some appreciate that they are at least different than the usual.
Some are liking the McCaan addition while others laugh at it.
There seems to be a fair amount of hype for Soto. -
Ooof. Not the most impressive lineup. I do like Eddie Murray, but 1B is so stacked and it's hard enough to find room for both Frank Thomas and Matt Olson. McCann is a weird choice for the Sox, but I actually like it more than Konerko (who would have been crazy redundant after Frank and Abreu). White Sox theme teams are almost always way too right-handed, so I will probably stick with that 97 Grandal behind the plate just to have someone swing it from the left.
Staumont is....unexpected.
-
@Jeff7407_PSN Stop it. That’s exactly the kind of thing I don’t want. How about a 1996 Steve Finley? How about a 1992 Gary Sheffield? Adrian Gonzalez? Jake Peavy was 1 and done last year and we have a million Yankees in this game. Oh, and get Ken Caminiti and Kevin Brown in this game.
-
@GoozeFn_PSN has there ever been a Gossage Padres card? He is at least in the game.
-
@GoozeFn_PSN agree though Caminiti would be great adding another switch hitting third baseman.
-
@MarioMendoza935_XBL McCann and Staumont would been the cards I would have replaced. I would have replaced McCann with Eric Hosmer, and Staumont with Yordano Ventura; if the show has or had the rights to those two players. In order for sets and seasons to work in the future there has to be a lot more players than there are now. The recycling is getting to be a bit too much.

Its crazy that all year we didnt really have a 99 lefty in the pen until that Billy Wagner, now we get 3 in the course of a week (Miller, Soto, Chapman)

It might even be 4 -- didn't Aaron Bummer get a 99 in the WC postseason program?

Holy [censored] he did. Forgot about him.

Instead of Napoli I wouldn't have minded an '03 Bill Meuller card, from when he won the batting title for Boston

You reuse too many guys! Also replace the guy that you are giving a 90+ card to for the first time in who knows how long!

I think last year, or the year before, there was Gold Gossage for the Padres.

So he was the golden goose?
-
@Jeff7407_PSN Not that I recall. There has been one for the Cubs and White Sox though.
-
@Jeff7407_PSN And his MVP season would make a great finest card.
-
@xsdert34_PSN Recycling would work better if they recycled players for different teams. Getting several Mike Schmidt’s for the same team is useless and lazy. Recycling say Mike Piazza for the Mets, Dodgers and even Padres would work and be welcomed.
-
@X-FREEZE-OFF-X_PSN I think you’re thinking of the White Sox gold.

Yes. My bad. Gossage was a Gold for the White Sox. The one for the Padres was Rollie Fingers.

Well Schmidt is an elite player and he only played for one team. He should definitely get a strong early card and a strong late card.
I agree about Piazza though, he should have had at least a 97 by now for the Dodgers, with his mets card being Hall of Fame in s4
Cool to see Eddie getting a Guardians card, thats a guy who has a case for cards for 4 different teams.
