Answer Just for your Favorite Team - One biggest disappointment in content
-
Giants - No Barry Bonds, Tim Lincecum, Jeff Kent, Matt Williams, Candy Maldonado ... I could go on and on.
-
And to think our two teams (Giants and Red Sox) are two of the most successful franchises over the past 20 years, and then they still get screwed over by SDS.
Edit - Probably shouldn't bring up Bonds because he hated having his likeness used even way before all the steroid stuff. Only chance we have for Bonds is if he's starting to feel a little poor. I bet SDS would shell out quite a bit for him. It would sell the product that year on his name alone.

So we're fans of both the Sox and the Giants? How cool. And I don't necessarily think the Sox have been screwed over. After all, Ted's been in the game. But there's a good list of Sox that would be nice to have in the game -- Tony C., Jackie Jensen, Rico Petrocelli to name three.
As far as Barry goes, you're right. It's up to him. For what it's worth, I sent him a note through his website. If a bunch of fans did that, maybe he'd change his mind.

3 Aaron Judge
No 99 Elly.
No 99 Cy YoungBut 3 Judge 99s
I still say Elly is a lock eventually, but it will be too late.
But the other ones I wanted/deserved for a Finest like Skubal, Sale, Skenes, Duran, Raleigh are not looking good.
Ely will most likely be in one of these programs coming up. They couldnt give everyone a TA card

Buster Posey, Madison Bumgarner, Barry Zito, Wil Clark, Kevin Mitchell

But they gave the Reds one to Spencer Steer? Bizarre decision. It wasn't like Elly had anyone close to him.
-
The Sox teams I'm referring to our most recent Legends from 2000 to 2020:
Manny
Pedroia
Varitek
Papelbon
Nomar
Lowe
WakefieldI could keep going. (Purposely left off Schilling)
The 80s are loaded with options too like Ellis Burks, Greenwell, Oil Can Boyd, and many others.
And yes I want Ted back and Yaz.

Hard to complain as a fan of the Yanks. It started with Jeter last year, but adding other big names from that 90s dynasty like Bernie Williams (my favorite player of all-time), Paul O'Neill and Andy Pettitte was so awesome. They even brought back CC Sabathia. I just wish that Tino Martinez and El Duque were still in the game, but can't be too greedy.
I do think Tim Hill deserved some kind of diamond card especially after how well he pitched in the postseason.

Yes. And thanks for admitting that!
I know many put more emphasis on the HUGE superstar names when it comes to new legends, but honestly each team could use more Bernies/O'Neills/Pettittes to really add some roster depth.

@Dolenz_PSN For Cards, no MVP Goldy, no 99 Edmonds, Milestone Nado was too little too late. I would've taken a Troy Glaus over Ludwick lol
-
@DaKid24167_XBL Pallante being one of Cards best pitchers this year, only lives series. Burleson one of Cards 3 best hitters this year, only live series

Well, it was never my intention in this topic to make it about who isn't in the game. We could, and have, played that game already before this year.
I also said one disappointment and people are now listing many.

I’m a Pirate fan.
I think a rendition of Three Rivers Stadium would be cool. Or at least one of the old “cookie cutter” stadiums like the Vet or Riverfront so we could use features in create a stadium. The renditions online don’t look right.
Legends in general but specifically players from the eighties and nineties. Kent Tekulve, John Candelaria, Drabek, Bob Walk, John Smiley, Van Slyke, Bonilla, and God forbid a guy named Barry Bonds! You have all the Braves pitchers from that period, you can’t give us one Pirate pitcher? Drabek won a Cy Young! Smiley was a 2 time all star and won 20 games in a season.
Is the Pirate Parrot in the game? He’s on a bat skin, why isn’t he in the stands at PNC Park? I don’t see him.
I love the game. I have no issues with online play that people have complained of. I just want better content. I think it’s good, I just feel they can do a lot better in terms of legends and card art. I have a lot of thoughts on that.

Watch him be the cover next year.

I mentioned Bumgarner recently and was told he couldn't be yet. And that's right -- he's still in this game. And we just had Posey, though it would be kind of weird to have a card be a team exec. Would love to see Mitchell, Clark and Zito, though.

I can't limit this to one
While the Mets have gotten a fair bit of Flashbacks throughout the year its a mess
No Piazza. Seriously?
Santana as an OoP and not a pitcher
Lindor in postseason instead of Marte or Diaz
Severino as Finest instead of Peterson or Iglesias (Sevvy has a 98 already)
No high diamond McNeil (yes he stunk this year. thats what retro cards are for.)
Loss of Hernandez leaving Carter as the lone '86 Met
Surely they could have found a way to toss Butto a card somewhere, The Show has a reliever shortage so guys like this should always get cards. -
Tigers not getting a Lou Whitaker or Mickey Lolich card
-
Or the Phillies best bullpen pitcher Jeff Hoffman not getting any card other than his live series, what more does he have to do to get a card

Its absolutely absurd that every all star reliever didn't get a card.
I know they historically dont give every all star a card, but I feel I always have so few relief options compared to everything else.
