Thoughts on POTM
-
@Invinitee_XBL I know. I’m just mentioning contenders. They all had a great month

@Teak2112_MLBTS Idk man he might be an All-Star Game card in Team Affinity
They could always give the all star card to Gore, they will likely both make it and for some unknown reason they dont make a card for every all star
-
I'm going to go out a limb with a prediction:
Since this is a likely a 94 they can give it to 90+ diamond.They do like to give fan favorites for this so your Lightning player of May with a 1.085 OPS and 8 stolen bases is:
Jose Ramirez -
I'm with some of the others upthread in that I doubt they give it to anybody who they assume will make the all-star game or who they plan on adding to any other program in the near future.
Remember before sets and seasons they almost never gave it to the actual top player each month. In '22 Judge, Goldschmidt and Arenado took home half the AL and NL POTM awards and none of them got a card for that. They held them back for later in the year.

Im a little surprised it isnt Wood because Gore gives them a pass on the All Star card issue. Wilson, on the other hand, is quite possibly the As only representative, although he still needs to play well in June
Are they really going to give TJ Friedl a lightning card?

@MRAD2010_XBL PCA hit .269 in the Month of May. No thanks. James Wood is getting a spotlight card, so it isn’t him. Jose Ramirez is the best choice.
-
Maybe a Freddie Freeman?
-
I’d love Manny Machado, but he only hit 4 home runs in May. Devers makes a lot of sense because he’s been a lightning card in the recent past and SDS loves giving us the same cards every year. Jacob Wilson makes some sense, but would be disappointing. I really hope it’s not a pitcher.

Wood is a Spotlight card tomorrow but not the Lightning.
