I don’t know. I don’t think we can assume that TA4 will necessarily be bigger and badder. I think Kaline fits into the best legend of the team, so does Killebrew (because they probably don’t have Pucketts rights) and Bagwell. Jim Palmer is close to that level for Orioles. Best pitcher at least.
Good point. I think you’re right on with kaline (maybe Cobb is a bigger legend, though), but I would put Walter Johnson over Killebrew, Cal over Palmer, and Biggio over Bagwell (but biggio obviously isn’t getting another card).
I was amazed at the amount of Nolan Ryan jerseys I saw when I went to a game in Houston last year. Just by that, maybe Ryan is considered near the top.
That’s true. But unlike biggio and Bagwell, Nolan split his time with three other teams. I’m not really a Nolan historian, so I couldn’t say for sure where he put up his best numbers. I’m a little bit biased, though, because I grew up in Fort Worth in the 90s so I’ll always think of Ryan as a ranger.

Maybe SDS is saving some big names for an Evolution program/ player program, But that seems too easy. Unless you’re like me and took hours to get the 2 extra base hits and 1 stolen base with Jackie! Lol

His best seasons for the most part were with the Angels, but I could see him being a stage 4 guy for any of his three main teams.

Ya Brett was surprising,

I’m expecting Finest to be TA4. I think the amount of headliners, player programs, inning bosses, 12-0 rewards, events and specialty packs this year leaves room for the legends still to come. There’s also a good chance we see prime/awards or SS cards at 150 stars in the later stages of the year.

TA4 will be Finest. They will have more than 30 finest, just like last year.
SS, Award and Prime cards will fill out the legends. They will be bosses, headliners, programs and Duck packs.
Plenty of room for everyone and SDS will maximize their profits accordingly.
That’s a good call and I hope you are right. I was worried that they would have to hold on to a lot of the big cards for the final TA meaning the game cycle would be nearly over but using the final TA for finest would be a good idea. Even if they have to mix in previous years finest to make it work.

lol, he single handedly destroyed the organization for almost a decade with his insane contract and awful production.

I think it's pretty obvious it's Mark Teahen.
-
Dan Quisenberry. You heard it here first.
-
I just want it to be an audible reward of Denny Mathews saying Greinke.
-
Ta4 I think will be Finest
-
TA3 aside I think we need some Jimmy Gobble moments around Thanksgiving this year.
-
What about the idea of flashback finest cards for TA4?
-
It is starting to feel like stage 4 will be finest. I hope not, but I'm getting that feeling.

That is potentially the plan when the season gets cancelled due to Covid-19.
No matter how many games MLB or the players think they're getting in, take the under. It's a safer bet.
