    Yeah, I don't think having headliners like Ryan Ludwick, Joe Torre and Lars Nootbaar really does Cardinals history any justice. So many more legend and Cardinal legends they could use, not even talking HOFers

    Ok fine. I should have just said they have struggled enough this century to not warrant all of the top cards they get.

    They may still be a top-ish team but don't deserve the dominant treatment from SDS they might have deserved 25 years ago.

    Are you saying they should just release cards from the last 20 years or something? Im not understanding the point of this. Are you implying that they should get rid of Mantle, Gehrig, Ruth, Mattingly, Guidry and Ford? Or they should get rid of the newer legends like Jeter, Rivera, Posada, Bernie, Paul O'neill, Soriano, etc?
    The reality you're ignoring is that when you're a "top team" for a good part of a century, you have top players, Hall of Famers, all stars, etc.

    Ok. If you need an example. Today they have a completely unnecessary 99 Granderson Yankee card. Especially when they know [censored] well there are way more Yankee cards already. And they're about to get 2-3 more WS cards.

    And if we're being real, just off the top of my head, these franchises have been more successful than the Yankees this century:

    Red Sox
    Dodgers
    Giants
    Cardinals
    Astros
    Braves (maybe)

    I mean I'll give you Ludwick and Lars, but Torre is a legitimate HOFer and one of the best players of his era.

    St. Louis could definitely use more Legends though. As soon as Pujols/Molina/Wainwright retired it really left a void especially if you are just running a Cards theme team.

    Dude i believe you meant to say last decade, no one is more successful than the yankees over the last century to my knowledge.

    I just looked it up they have won 26 of their 27 world series tittles in the last century,so not one of those teams are close.

    My exact words were "this century". Most people I know understand what this means: since 2000 or 2001.

    I can't believe I have to explain this.

    No worries. Thanks for owning it. And sorry if my tone was harsh.

    @Easy_Duhz_It__PSN on that basis we should have an absurd number of Astros given their ALCS and playoff appearances in recent years. Don’t disagree with lots of Yankees by the way…

    @dbub_PSN What? They are literally in the World Series right now. Not a Yankees fan.

    Not sure what basis you're referring to but every player on those recent Astros teams is in the game. They also have 12 Hall of Famers....9 of them are actually in the game. They just happen to be on other teams.

    My point exactly. Yankee fans have always bragged about their rings and scoffed at other achievements.

    So they MADE the WS. So what? No ring.

    I can’t believe I rooted for the Dodgers who eliminated my team but Yankees fans did this to me over the years

    @Easy_Duhz_It__PSN good point. I’d not considered their HOF cards who happen to be on other teams. Wikipedia says only Biggio and Bagwell in the Hall with their “primary team” as Houston. That seems mad to me but suppose it makes sense!!

    Their "other" HOFers:

    Nellie Fox - rightfully in as a White Sock
    Leo Durocher - rightly in as Dodger manager
    Randy Johnson - rightfully in as DBack
    Eddie Mathews - rightfully in as Braves player
    Robin Roberts - rightfully in as Phillie
    Joe Morgan - rightfully in as Red (though I'm sympathetic his credentials should be revoked due to his broadcast career).
    Pudge - rightfully in as Ranger
    Nolan Ryan - in as Ranger ("rightfully" might not as strong an argument, but I'm a Rangers fan so I'll allow it!)
    Don Sutton - rightfully in as a Dodger

    The situation will eventually rectify as the Altuve, Bregman, Yordan, and Verlander class become eligible and if Oswalt, Berkman, and Jose Cruz ever get some Veteran's Committee love.

    @dbub_PSN How convenient that you are cutting off the relevancy at 2000 when the Yankees won 3 out of the 4 preceding years, 1999, 1998 and 1996. They’ve also won twice “this century” in 2000 and 2009. They’ve been in the World Series and lost 3 additional times in that time period. Suggesting they haven’t been a top team recently is laughable. In the context of legends in this video game, this century doesn’t mean much. They are the most storied franchise in the game. I’d bet this game’s largest fan base are Yankees fans and they know it.

    Yankees are absolutely great all-time, especially in the years you mentioned. Technically... 2000 is considered "last century". I only point this out because I was a long-suffering Red Sox fan and they've won the most "this century" 🤪
