2nd Inning and April 11th Card Reveals
-
New Cornerstone Cards
(wondering if Sutter will end up being a diamond Cub?)And and Ozzie Smith reward path card (Not a boss) that nobody but us die hards will use
They say "Earn one of the best Ozzie Smith
s we’ve ever released in the 2nd Inning Program Reward Path (and he’s not even a Boss)!"So this one is somehow better than the mid 90's or even 99 Ozzie cards we have gotten in the past? Let's not overdue the hyperbole

Considering that his cards never match up with other 99s due to a lack of power, an 89 will be just fine during the power creep. Should have great contact, fielding and speed with little to no power.

Ozzie and Sutter works for me, and yes he needs to be a diamond Cardinal lol

Bobby Abreu started the Cornerstone I program as an Astro and finished as a Phillie.
I feel quite certain Sutter's Evolved card will be bear-ish... -

I wonder if they are talking outside the sets and seasons world. SDS seems happy to forget that experiment

No they just hype everything. It makes some of the streams tough to watch...look we know a mediocre card when we see one, hyping it up is just painful to watch.
An 89 Ozzie should be fine, just go all in on no power and give him good defense, contact, and 90+/90+ stealing and I would certainly use him a lot
-
I have to check to see if I still need cards steals, he'd be a better option than winn(who can hit but has borderline speed)or that other guy who has great speed but no hitting skills.

For my cardinals theme team I simply kept Victor Scott II on my bench and pinch run him anytime someone gets a single. Then just sub in Brendan Donovan the next inning because he can play everywhere
-
@Easy_Duhz_It__PSN I'm 100% ok with that, if he has super high speed, fielding and contact/power like that gold Clemente hes going to be great
-
A couple of the April Spotlight Cards
-
April Spotlight Pack - Here is hoping they don't fall into the habit of always putting Cardinal players in the packs like they did for the first few seasons last year.
-
@PAinPA_PSN you just use them as pinch runners. no need for hitting stats.
-
@Dolenz_PSN There are 3 A's and 2 rays and you're worried about the one cardinal we have had? SMH.
Not to mention dude hits 3 absolute Tanks in a game he def deserves a Topps Now card.
-
I'm not worried. I'm going to get him. I was just kind of mentioning that last year for the first and second season almost every Cardinal they released were in the packs (or they were collection rewards). If they do that again then that is fine. It's their call.
It was more of an observation than anything else.
But I will say that when cards I want are in packs then it does not give me a much of incentive to play the programs, so maybe that is actually a plus.

Chase pack #5
Pretty good card for Astros fans considering that he only pitched 11 of his 618 games for them.

This was before they cheated though.
-
@Dolenz_PSN Ah gotcha makes sense. I feel that. I thought that was a "holy [censored] too many cardinals post" when we've gotten the entire multi generational history of the Boston Red sox already LMAO.
I def agree though that its harder to be excited about cards that are chase packs or headliners. As long as they don't make my favorite guys BR or WS rewards though I'm set lol.

In a 3 inning game,yes.
But I've been doing 9 inning games with tier 3 jolt captains to finish the QI and OTR missions,don't like pinch running in 9 innings especially early. -
@Dolenz_PSN
Looks like your Cardinals are being represented well this year. I am still waiting for Vince Coleman, Willie McGee, and Jack Clark!
