Legends & Flashbacks Collection on Friday
-
It’s got to be a legend tho doesn’t it.
-
It could be someone like Elly. A flashback of a current player that everyone keeps asking for
-
It drops with the Finest cards so my guess is a Finest card, maybe Aaron Judge? Or it could be Elle De La Cruz because he's a switch hitter..... o wait he will just be the chase card
-
@samguenther1987_PSN if it’s judge people would riot.
-
I'm willing to bet people are going to riot no matter what it is. That's just how it works.

-
I hope it's not Judge. I liked his swing on his earlier Spotlight card but for some reason his swing on the ASG seemed very off. That is just the tip of the iceberg why I don't want Judge. I hope it's Mackey and Ely would be awesome too. I want to put a bid in for that Witt card but if there is a chance the final collection will be Ely I'll just be wasting my stubs.

Agree, I also think Mantle is the only other option besides Mackey and Elly. The Moonshot Mantle is not the end game Mantle we usually see.
-
@WolfgangMLB_XBL it rly could be Randy or chipper the way this years releases thought processes have been.

Would you put it past SDS at this point?
-
Really leaning toward Elly as SS is the weakest position atm, tulo then made, and no one else compares, maybe lindor but that arm strength. Tulo-> made -> Elly makes sense as made came out along time ago and is about outdated. It’s gotta be someone everyone wants and a massive upgrade over any other option. So elly makes most sense, I could see a juiced biz, but biz could be reward for collecting the negro league players. Cather is a very deep position ATM, not SS

Zobrist plays an elite SS. I wouldn’t mind a good Elly but we don’t have a great hitting C that can also throw out runners. I’m using Posada back there but he’s not throwing anyone out.
-
@Bridge-Piece_XBL also using posada and still would over biz, my favorite swing in the game. Sure zobrist plays an elite SS, but he plays elite everywhere. Talking primary SS, Elly is the best option every year

Same but would maybe move him to first and VMart to the bench.

Heck yeah.
His walkup 'song' might be: 'Hi, I'm Aaron Judge, welcome to MLB The Show!' -
I don’t think it’d be any current player. If anything they’d be in a finest collection. With all the negro league players being added I do see a collection card for them either biz or Jackie. But for the big collection it could be a very juiced Hank Arron. I don’t think he has a 99 yet. Everyone seems to think this collection has to be a switch hitter when there are plenty of legends left.

It’s because everything has been oriented around switch hitters this year. Victor, Beltran, Zobrist….why would you bet against them keeping the streak going? It’s not “everyone” it is SDS.
-
I hope it's someone fresh.
As much as I was shocked at the Zobrist call, it was at least a fresh take, someone outside the norm.Given our repetition and recent focus on cards that merely suit the meta, i think someone from left field would be refreshing.
-
It’s funny how Jeter and Griffey were game selling Legend additions over the last ten years, yet SDS basically ignores them.

99 OVR Roger Clemens

Corner outfield seems like the weakest spot to me. Theres not many options that combine elite speed and batting. Lots of sluggers who play mediocre outfield.
