A New 'New Threads' Program?
-
That said, i do enjoy the Topps Now and Draft/Pipeline cards, which are better than those players deserve. At least the latter can be treated as 'what if they end up at full potential'. Topps Now are just goofy fun for players that would usually not see a card otherwise, but always purposefully behind the curve at least.

98 Helsley Showdown
I'll be extremely disappointed if they give another Helsely but dont give a Tyler Rogers, but there is room for both.
The showdown should have been Bednar, so you can beat up the Yankees new additions just like it actually happened

He was awesome yesterday. Came in for a five out save and ended up striking out five. Let's get a 99 for that Yanks pen!!!
-
probably Miller and Duran get the 99s and guys like Bednar and Rogers (and Helsley) get 98s or 97s.
Which matters less for relief pitchers anyway

2018 would have been right up your alley. Only 22 99s in the entire game.
Did they have 125 as maximum for contact/power/vision back then, or was it 99? I didn't play DD back then. I'm wondering if the number of 99's exploded as a result of that.
2018 is when the 125s came into the game. The theory put out by sds at the time was that these immortals are the greatest of all time and therefore need attributes that are above the “normal maximum”
-
Ah yes, the immortal Willi Castro definitely needs that 125 contact
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS I wish they would just give a card to every significant player who was traded including prospects.
-
I assume its not trivial for coding, but maybe for 2026 New Threads (both initial and trade if they do them again) should have logos of both the old and new team, and just for these specific cards they can allow dual theme team eligibility.
That way the Athletics fan gets their 99 Mason Miller too.
-
Here are the cards in the program.
-
Where's the Phillies new closer Johan Duran? He deserves a card more Cedric Mullins who's done [censored] with his new team
-
@Dolenz_PSN oh BTW there's also a post that has you earning Ryan Helsley in Showdown

A new threads Pack maybe?

Hayes, ugh, who would want him?
-
Plenty more players who can be thrown in packs, got to make people spend stubs somehow.
-
I'm surprised they put Mullins in the program and not the pack
Still wanting that Tyler Rogers, my favorite offline reliever ever since that Mexico card two years ago
And his stats actually warrant a 98-99
-
Still no Padres… I’m sure we’ll get a Miller card, another reliever… come on SDS.

I assume we have a mini season and pack incoming, potentially DQ too

New pack would make sense since we haven't seen one since ASG.

Its basically going to be a copy/paste of all star, and really what they have been doing all year
Program (this one actually has a medium amount cards in it at least)
Showdown
Mini Season (we get one per inning so this is almost a lock)
DQ (this is the one thing that may not come)
PackWe will then get no content next Friday (besides spotlight), and then no content the following Friday since it will be new inning
