@Teak2112_MLBTS - Yeah, they should have made randy a Diamondback. He won 4 consecutive Cy Youngs in Arizona and came in 2nd another year with them. So while he spent more time in Seattle, he was better in Arizona and they desperately are in need of cards.
I would love to get a peek behind the scenes of these decisions. It's not like people will not want the 99 Randy Johnson card because he is a Diamondback instead of a Mariner.
I know some people get upset when they release multiple cards for the same player, but a guy like Randy its fine to have 2 99s. And honestly he probably should. But people also get mad when they recycle cards and there is only so much they can do.
But there should be a 99 Arizona Randy every year. Maybe there still will be this year
I know a lot of people think theme teams should allow players that played for that team, and I kind of disagree because I dont think Willie Mays belongs on a Mets theme team in his peak form. Do we really want to have peak Randy Johnson on Yankee's theme teams?
Maybe if there was a way to earn a different card skin or something, that could help the issue of people wanting more to grind for while the god squad only online players dont care what uniform their cards are wearing

This is why they need to code it so the captains to include all teams the player played on, then it doesn’t matter what laundry the player gets their best card.

As I said above, I disagree. The laundry does matter, and the Mets, Braves, and Phillies should not be able to use that 99 Joey Bats

@SaveFarris_PSN
Exactly who I was thinking! -

Exactly who I was thinking!It would be hilarious if that was Diamondbacks El Duque, for his 9 starts of 6.11 ERA
-
The right one could be Sammy Sosa...
-
Johnny Cueto could be the pitcher.

Randy Johnson is one of the weekend classic rewards
Looks like I'll be waiting for a while to get him...
RIP to having fun in H2H games. Going to see nothing but Randy, Randy, and Randy.

@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN
And Kershaw -
My picks are Johnny Cueto, David Ortiz, and Sammy Sosa.
-
Cornerstone cards are Willie Stargell, Brandon Webb and Wade Boggs
-
I completely forgot about Boggs, who has been announced for cornerstone. SO yeah I'm on the Ortiz train. Doesnt look thick enough, but its also a weird perspective
Stargell and Brandon Webb are the other two.
Its a diamondback but uh...Goldy? LuGo?

@Teak2112_MLBTS
Listen, Brandon Webb didn't get a good card all year this year and last, so let's all rejoice in him finally getting some recognition. -

And doesnt improve their theme team depth because Webb was a card they already had, granted this one should be a lot better
But he is a guy people forget how good he actually was because his career was so short
I hope if cornerstone returns next year they make the cards better, they seem a little disrespectful with how behind the curve they have been when they release
