I agree. However there has been no Baseball season, so I’m sure they had to adjust on the fly and panicked a bit. No real players to properly adjust as season went on.
BUT... in no way should there be a prospect/future star fielder/batter better than Trout and not a pitcher better than deGromm!!!!!

It's the repeating players that irritates me. Don't do 90 Joe Adell and then another 99 version later. Should've saved the to Prospects for FS only.

Yeah you could make this argument too.

Minor leaguers' rights are cheaper and that's the name of the game

Unfortunately, I expect many more: Franco, Lux, Robert, another Pearson and Kopech. Probably many more in the top 25. May and Sanchez weren't even top 20 guys.
Not another Kopech, anything but that 🤮
Why not another Kopech? I'd love to get a high diamond version.

Creating fictional players from scratch is even cheaper. Why not just do that, if all anyone cares about is the attributes and animations?

Because it's still a baseball "sim."
Obviously, the "sim" part gets thrown out the window in DD.

Give me Spencer Torkelson. I want him better than Babe Ruth though.

I agree this future stars bs is trash. They literally think like 20 of these future stars at the prime of their careers will all be as good or better than trout whose considered a 1 in a generation baseball player. Another reason why i cant stand playing this game after playing a ton on march and april.

I just got Carter Keiboom! Yay!! Stoked.

Seems to be a pretty accepted opinion amongst the majority here. Don't know that I've ever had so many likes on a post.

I think they missed an opportunity for a program here, where you could prestige these cards from their prospect cards to the future star versions, that to me would have made more sense with what they seem to have been trying to achieve here with multiple cards.
-
This is so true. Add in that they have weird NFL/Spring Training uni numbers. Then of course, if you look at their Live series cards and they are a shell of themselves.
The only one i have in my lineup is Brandon Marsh for his speed, etc. -
Adell, the only FS I don’t have...and don’t need!

I like that idea.. but that doesnt bring any money in for SDS... Now people who really want that card will spend Stubs on it again, same like they did on that 90 Adell

This should have been November content, not June.
Make a Minor League version of the game and stick these guys there.
Absolutely agree, at that point I would call it justified.

Sosa costs money. The current mlb players do not
I see Sosa/McGuire being the big names used to market 21. With the game going to other platforms, they're probably the two biggest names out there aside from Bonds.
Jeter? Clemens? ARoid? Pedro?
Not being a Yankee fan I'd l Iove to see Slammin Sammy Sosa.

We already have 2 of Lux how many are we going to get of him 3? 4? 5? Seriously I'm telling you guys if stage 3 is rookies again I may walk always for awhile.
Out of MLB Pipelines top 20 prospects only Adell has a confirmed FS card.
Wander
Lux
Robert
Rutschman
Gore
Adell
Mize
Pearson
Royse Lewis
Witt Jr.
Kelenic
Luzardo
Pache
Bart
McKay
Vaughn
Carlson
Julio Rodriguez
Whitley
Kopech
Interestingly enough
#21 Kieboom
#22 Sixto
#23 May
All have FS cards -
I don’t love the idea that unknowns have significantly better cards than hall of game guys and legends, but there might be a bright side. At least we should see different lineups, as opposed to the template god squad that happens every year. Maybe we’ll even stop seeing Kluber every game.
One request though: Give us some relievers and catchers please.
