If they can give Michael Young, AJ Burnett, and Jason Kendall 97s, they can give anyone high diamonds. Jose Mesa, Carlos Baerga, Charles Nagy, anybody.
I’m just saying look at the other 99’s in TA 3. George Brett, Harmon Killebrew, Gwynn, Schmidt, etc. -all time greats. Thome certainly fits that mold. Sizemore doesn’t. 97-98 sure. Don’t give me the the future star nonsense either. Those are unrealistic on purpose and can’t be compared here
I hate the future stars, so I'm not on that train, but I dont see how them giving Burnett a 97 isnt that much different than Travis Hafner or even Grady Sizemore a 99. They are all unworthy.

Thats completely a result of
- They didn’t want to rate any of the cards below 97
- Marlins not having any options
- SDS digging themselves a whole and releasing 87 Cliff Floyd in the 5th inning program. Because that was a more obvious choice than Bichette if not for the 87 just released

My Prediction:
Angels - Jim Edmonds or Nolan Ryan
Blue Jays - Robbie Alomar or Dave Stieb
Indians - Kenny Lofton or Albert BelleThey're new legends. Everyone you named has been in DD already
Dammit I keep forgetting that...lol. Good catch. I guess I have to go with the Thome train with the Indians then, and probably Salmon or Wally Joyner for the Angels. Maybe George Bell or Damaso Garcia for the Jays?
Damaso Garcia... That would make me want to throw a toaster in the tub
Hoping Delgado or Doc.. nobody else..
Tony Fernandez would make sense too, but pretty boringDidn't Tony have a card last year though?
No. Never has. He passed away this year, so maybe they honor him by getting him in the game. RIP

I wouldn't hate that. Tony was a historically underrated player, IMO.

Switch hitting, high contact excellent defender at SS.. just zero power
-
I want about half of the TA3 cards
-
How about Larry Doby as the TA3 for the Indians?

He wouldnt be a new legend
-
My mistake. I had forgotten he was already in the game.
-
Who was in charge of revealing Orel stats like is the dude still alive ?.
-
Thanks, bouncing between Social platforms for this info was VERY annoying!

He was a contact and speed guy power was not a part of his game. 8 seasons of 20+ stolen bases not to mention 17 triples in 1990 is very impressive though.
-
What if it's actually Satchel Paige? It's most likely Jim Thome this was just a thought.
-
I’m after Schmidt, Gwynn, and a bunch of SP.
-
For now I want Smoltz and Dawson. I'm 100% with the Braves, and around 65% with the Nats. I've got 21 gold McNeil cards, 4 gold Gary Carter cards, 1 Juan Soto, 2 diamond Sheffield cards, and a bunch of silvers.
Will be able to get Smoltz, Dawson will be close. I was doing the Jackie program last night. It is amazing the amount of packs and stubs you get, pulled Morton from a standard pack. That 2XBH/1 SB moment almost made me lose my mind though.
-
Where are orels stats?

@NotchHim said in TA 3 reveal thread:
I'm set to add Mattingly, Killebrew, Wood, Kendall, and the Blue Jays if it's Joseph Bats.
Can’t be Joey Bats. It’s a “New” Legend
Bautista was a flashback last year. Retired now, so any card of his moving forward would be a legend.
-
Baerga would be a good one. There hasn't been a 2B named yet in TA3.
-
So... we can now have 2 fish in the all-angels outfield
Henke, Salmon and Thome, that's really great!
