Kind of hoping for a Carlton cardinals card.
Agreed on all points. They’ve dropped the ball on cards (as far as we are concerned) the initial Pendleton should’ve been a Cardinal rookie through 87 season but they did a Marlins for some reason.
The 99 Rolen being a Phillie is laughable.
I was surprised we didn’t get a Holliday as a Cardinal but we wouldn’t have used him anyway unless we wanted to get hit in the [censored] from fly balls. Brock is the way.

Rolen spent more years and played more games for the Phillies and won ROY with them but his best season (and highest MVP finish) happened in St Louis. At least with Rolen there could still be a chance of a Retro Finest 99 for his 2004 season which had his highest BA, most HRs and most RBIs

Rolen had his best season(S) with St. Louis.
His Cooperstown hat reflects as much.
His 99 should’ve been us but oh well.
Arenado card is better as is Pendleton.
Also if you want a badass short doc on Coke with Keith, check this out. I’m sure you’ve seen it but perhaps not. Lonnie Smith docu.

I don't really understand these Prime cards, whats the background behind them? I know theyve been in game a while, but Prime makes me think 'best', and for example the Sal perez card is for a fairly average year, nothing stands out about it

They’re Priming you to spend stubs.

@Teak2112_MLBTS if memory serves, the way they explained prime cards years ago was a players best three year run. They don’t reflect an individual year.

I’m not really a big fan of the cards in the program but I really like Terry Pendleton and Varitek. They both have great swings. I like Michael Young but I don’t think he’ll have much use. The two closers Chavez and Iglesias are pretty solid. Other than that they can keep all the starting pitchers.

I have liked the ability to get packs without spending a ton of stubs. I completed the collection and only spent about 30k stubs. Being able to sell the lowest pulls for 5k made a huge difference with this program. I opened about 25 packs and had decent luck.
