New Cards for 5th Inning (July 3rd) - First boss revealed
-
Unless they get Brooks Lee to around 30k with packs the retro lightning will be expensive anyway.
-
Soto didn't make it yet, there is still the player vote to go.

@Dolenz_PSN
Hopefully this chipper will be better then the ranked chipper because his stats were basically a platune. -

For them to not be included at all would be, and I am going to use a phrase I actually hate seeing people use, "A slap in the face" to the Rockies and Rays fans.
Both those teams have gotten a LOT of Topps now love though, with the Rockies recently getting a POTM program capper
plenty of teams have been slapped int he face all year, I'm still very salty that neither Nimmo or Peterson's Topps now were used (and the card they gave Nimmo in that DQ was far worse than the TN would have been)
But things go in cycles, look at the recent Red Sox Topps Nows

I find it hard to believe the guy who has the 6th best Offensive WAR in baseball isnt going to get a spot on the team. That would be one heck of a snub
Wood, Tatis, Soto, and Pages I assume will all make it still. I guess the x Factor is Stowers may be the Marlins rep, but I assume theyll give that to Cabrera

Agreed! Great card. Crazy price. Kind of ridiculous a spotlight card is more expensive than World Series rewards.

Trout will make it too on the al side, players won't leave him out if he's healthy,
The only question is do the players vote devers or Schwarbs as the NL dh -
I am so ready to have a Chipper card that has elite durability. Old boy won’t be getting hurt on my field
-
Soto should be the Lightning player

Well, that is the catch isn't it? Someone is always going to get snubbed. You listed a potential 5 outfielders. Only 3 of them can be voted in as backups by the players. And if everything goes perfectly (meaning all teams are represented) the commissioners office only has room to choose 2 position players.

Should has played a very minor part of their lightning decisions over the years, especially with power creep back in. Let me ask you this. I am am not convinced that the lightning player will be a 99. I am thinking it will be a 97. Do you really want a 97 Soto if that means you have to wait until the end of the season before they give him a 99 card? Because that would be a likely scenario.

Honestly Soto should get a 96 or 97 of some kind now (I assume it would be a pack all star 96), a 98 or 99 with the Yanks or Nats, and then a Finest or playoff 99
Limiting a star player to just 2-3 cards a year is just bad design.

Pretty excited about the Chipper card. Looks like Headley is going to the bench for now.

Soto it is, nice
-
Oh my that Soto card is gonna be a problem!!
-
Unless there were no viable Topps Now cards this week getting rid of them in the program is total [censored].
You can add more spotlight cards without screwing Topps Now. These programs had 15+ cards a couple years ago...
-
I was wrong they did give it to Soto. He definitely earned it.
-
Interesting that they put in a mission to match Yandy Diaz's hits but did not give him a card. That's gotta stung a little bit for Rays fans
