What's with this extreme Braves love? They have released a card (in multiple cases more than one) for every Braves legend, and now releasing flashback Braves. There are many teams with legends that are in the game, that don't have any cards yet!!
Spread it out SDS, feels like the Cardinals of last year. I don't need to field a whole team and rotation with diamond Braves this early.
Face it, if you're not a Cardinals, Braves, Yankees, or possibly Dodgers fan you get the minimum of effort. You've got teams that have been around for 50 or 60 years with 3 or 4 flashbacks and none on the market.
You've got the Tigers, who have been around as long if not longer than anyone and they've got 1 (2 if you counting Kaline) usable card in the entire game.
Gotta be a nice feeling being a Braves fan. The Nationals for instance have no Non-live series cards on the market, the year after winning the world series haha.

Nationals are a bad example in this case as the are still a "newer team" as the Nationals so not much history to pull from in their current form and any legends they do get are generally always Expos players which count but really dont

I agree, comparing history not exactly fair, but seems like every release involves a Braves player recently.
I am also selfishly upset because the Brewers have no non-live series positions players in the game. I just want any version of a Moliter or Yount card I can use (crossing my fingers that the breakout legend program card this week is Yount breakout card). Last year we were the second to last team to get a SS card. I love this game and can only eat so much cheese to cheer me up.

Honestly the tigers probably got more love than the Yankees in 19 so I'm not exactly complaining. I‘d prefer a juiced Trammel card or a new Tigers legend (Whitaker, Greenberg, Ordonez) rather than another Verlander or Granderson card. They have already released the best Miggy card in the history of DD, so its really hard to be mad st lack of tigers content, even though along with the 4 you named Detroit is probably the 5th most storied baseball franchise
MVP Harper, Cy Young Scherzer, Flashback Strasburg, etc. There’s plenty of great Nats cards to choose from. Its [censored] that none of these have come out. They should have made a 99 CY Young Scherzer the best in the game instead of [censored] Corey Kluber.
If you think this year's Braves love is a bit much, I have a sneaking suspicion you're going to hate next year's version...

Uhhh...Hal Newhouser & Miggy are top tier lineup staples at the moment...

I understand where you are coming from but Kluber’s Cy Young season is just as good as any of Scherzer’s. Kluber is just a PITA to face is why you feel this way

Who is it going to be? Kimbrel? Heyward?
Gotta be Maddux right?
Cant be Maddux if it's a flashback. Flashbacks are for current players in previous seasons, right?

I would love to see Hank in this game! I have no problem with the Braves or their history, but the release of cards could be way more balanced throughout the league.

yeah, I forgot about Hal and Cobb. My bad. My point still stands. The Tigers should have as many flashbacks as anyone. Especially this year with no usable live series cards.

Kluber used to be untouchable but he looked terrible on the mound last year. All I can remember is him getting drilled in the arm by a line drive to end his season. And this is the best pitcher in the game. Brutal...

It's a flashback card...not sure how you missed that part? Has nothing to do with 2019.

Just a bad look to put a flashback card as the best in the game when he looked like dog [censored] the last time we saw him pitch. Meanwhile we got Mad Max chugging beers and winning rings last year and he can't even get a specialty card. Show that man some [censored] respect!

I definitely won't argue that mad Max isn't a badass. That man definitely has some respek on his name. I'd say Kluber deserves some slack, Indian fan bias aside, the guy's control was absolute dog [censored] in the spring - yes - but the man suffered a straight fracture from a line drive and never got the chance to right the ship LOL He literally only pitched a month. Whose to say he wouldn't have had a decent year you know?

That's fair. Kluber was a stud prior to last year. This is more of a pro-Scherzer than anti-Kluber rant. Haha. He probably would have turned it around knowing him.
if Scherzer got the 99 everyone would be sick of him coming in from the pen too. Wouldn't really matter.

3rd Inning Program and the Tigers have had 5 cards released outside of prospects, FoTF, and collection reward.
98 Hal Newhouser 98 OVR one of top SP in game
94 Miggy Headliner BEAST
91 Ty Cobb is very usable just not his 99 card yet
86 Kaline was a tribute and he will get another 90+ later
84 Trammel Vet henchman is actually decent, also will get 90+ card eventually
Tigers will get a 90+ Jack Morris.
Casey Mize is a nice 90 SP card has good stuff.
