I just wish they would have called these new cards Series 4 of “Prospects” rather than trying to pass them off as Future Stars cards. For the Sox, Dane Dunning deserves a Prospect card, not a FS. And these prospects are taking the FS cards away from deserving guys like Eloy Jimenez.

Didn't Eloy have a FS last year?

Yes, and everyone is using the Robles FS card without complaints. Ya'll are funny. Did you complain about FS high diamonds in past years too?

People would be complaining even more if they dropped a TA part 2 with 86-89 overall prospects and about how most of them are unusable on most teams.
But at the same time, this was the perfect opportunity for a wave of 90-95 overall legends for every team and probably a lot of newly licensed guys.

Yes, which made sense because, like all the other FS guys last year, he had at least appeared on an actual MLB roster at that point. So he was transitioning out of the “prospect” phase and into the “future star” phase. I can’t remember all the FS cards from last year, but Vlad got a FotF card this year so he doesn’t need another FS. I just want Eloy to have a usable card. His LS hasn’t made a roster since launch.

I agree 100%. Some of the TA rewards aren't great (looking at the Blue Jays), but they are still fun to use if you're a fan of the team. And now is the time to release these players and have them still be usable

I’m just a fan of interesting baseball players. I don’t need to be a fan of the team to appreciate a player.
My lineup consists of Royce Lewis, Jarred Kelenic, Acuna, Albies, Moncada, Wander Franco, Bo Bichette, Joey Bart and prospect pitchers.

I just find it annoying that unless we get TWO diamonds which I do not see happening. We will need to wait all the way till “summer” for flashback/legends we can normally grind for day 1. On top of that, if I like a player on a team who’s cards I’m not after right now like the giants, I’ll need to collect 120 points before I can begin it.

Most of these prospects won’t sniff a mob roster this year , and half of the future stars won’t either other than Brief call ups...

More content guys! Stop whining and buy headliner packs. Game is playing great!

I'll be the first to say that the game plays awful right now, especially on all star difficulty. HOF is slightly better but its nearly unplayable right now with how bad fielding is. I was just saying how I felt about future stars since I see most people don't like the idea
