Dylan Carlson

@jonblaze2424_PSN could be wrong but does the name Brendan McKay ring a bell the 2 way from the rays in oh god I think it was 19 it was smt McKay.

Wander Franco, that one didnt work out very well

[censored] - good call. Funny yet not funny, I was so good with his cards as I remember too

Bobby Miller

Jarred Kelenic. The show made a big deal out of his first game and being promoted. Just hasn’t clicked at all in the majors even though he is being every opportunity in the world with different teams.
-
Just looked back it was him Brendan McKay first pick to the rays as a 2 way went to Louisville and did have a 87 overall in mlb the show 20 i remember that card being elite on both sides of the ball.

He may have Jordan Walker disease IE they brought him up too early. He’s too young to give up but yeah his card raked
-
Funny enough the Mariners were criticized for not brining him up sooner and purposely extending his service time. One of among other reasons why their GM at the resigned for commenting on it and on other players.

Yep. All good, in due time
The immense amount of pressure on these kids is easy to write off but always remember how old they are, and the scrutiny they face and etc etc. I don’t feel sorry for them ever but management helps make them worse a lot of the time
I’ve only seen Griffin twice now since we’re finally playing an NL Central team but he ain’t Wetherholt. They need to send him back down. They’re trying to skenes him

Billy Beane.

The elephant in the room... wander franco. The pos.

Future Stars (players who had already debuted in MLB) started in 2017.
Prospects (those who had not yet debuted) began in 2020.
Draft cards started in 2023. -
Yoan Moncada, he has gotten a diamond here and there over the years but has never(I don't think) been above a silver. He was one of the first future stars.

And the Mets were HEAVILY criticized for trading him. Rightfully so at the time.

I also remember to go along with my Brendan McKay one Eloy Jimenez also had a rly good one in I think 19 or 20 was a future starts card it dropped with a tatis card.

Draft cards started in 2023.Yeah I think this post would encompass all those for us old timers
Besides for Carlson there was a Gorman in one of those that raked too.
Wish they’d teach all these kids to switch hit
So they’d be relevant in MLB the Show

obligatory ''tough break, good kid'' post

Kieboom and Brujan are both great calls! I always loved those Brujan cards. Reminded me a little of the Dee Gordon cards which I also love.

But he hit it hard and to all fields. He’d fit into the presidential cabinet. Look for him to be exonerated
SDS could have him back on a presidential conquest map theme
Oh they don’t do conquest maps anymore
