Who's the NEW LEGEND ON APRIL 25?
-
I can see it being a "returning" player who retired somewhat recently like Josh Donaldson. Not complaining, but it's kind of a bait-and-switch promoting a NEW Legend for it to be someone who has only been out of the game for a year or two (Arrieta/Kluber).
I also don't expect them to release a massive headliner (Bonds/A-Rod) in the middle of the game cycle as those kind of stars are usually reserved to entice preorders ahead of launch. However, history has proven that SDS will drop some big names out of nowhere (Honus Wagner/Larry Walker/Jim Thome/Roy Halladay) so it is possible. Selfishly, I would love to see Hideki Matsui or Mark Teixeira.
Another question, what do you expect the card overall to be? These types of collections usually get the 99 treatment, but with them really abiding by the power creep model I can see it being a 95-97 which would still make that card viable for a long while.

I don’t expect anyone too big. No Cobb, no Bonds. I would even be shocked for Canseco.
My guess. Best case scenario is Buster Posey or Albert Pujols. But I think it will be disappointing, someone similar to Rich Aurillia or Tony Tarasco level. -
I was thinking Robinson Cano but he's still playing in the Mexican league don't know if he filed his retirement papers with mlb. A 2009 card would be sick

Cano would have a nasty swing. And then they could give him an offensively juiced Retro HR Derby card.

@Rubbaneck34_XBL Juicing is not why Barry is not in baseball games. Tell me when the last time Barry Bonds was in a game? It was 2003 and he played until 2007.

Gonna be an evolution card where it upgrades from one to the other.

I’m guessing it’s a Corner OF or 3B or 1B or pitcher. They dropped 4 2Bs recently and 2 SS’s. I’m kinda thinking ARod. I want Carl Crawford or David Price. Would love to see Yadi or Posey actually.
