Extreme disappointment from an older player.
-
I think it's decent for what it requires, nowhere near as expensive as Honus last year
-
Do you realize how many players from the 90's - 2000's were new this year ? Trout was a big disappointment yes... But to say they are alienating an entire generation of player is a bit off base here.
-
Trout is arguably Top 5 player of all time so it’s quite fitting IMO

Trout could have been a boss, or instead, the LS collection, with Mantle being your ultimate chase.
No, you couldn't have made Mantle the Honus because you had to have Prime Mantle available at launch. He was the 'star' legend this year so he had to be there on Day 1.

True. Another example of BAD PLANNING.

and what do the clues BIG and Chase have to do with Trout?
-
I’d have rather them just repeat with Honus. While I got the trout (because I already had everything and then some, this was way easier than honus last year), he may not even be in my lineup now, let alone end of year.

To chase... or FISH. Mike TROUT. TROUT = FISH. some trout are BIG.
BOOM

I was over prepared for this, my stub balance went up 800k selling cards I didn't need for the collection and you didn't need cards from every collection

or it was a "big" collection that was the "chase", people read too much into it

Not when you already have is LS with Quirks. This should have been a legend

Yes I know people read too much into it. That was the tone of my post. It wasn't serious
-
You heard it here first kids: stop reading too much...

They weren't clues but people misinterpreted them to be clues
-
If he was an inning boss this inning, I’d still take Maddux.
All year SDS has had fire content, so I will get over this quickly, but at the moment I think we’d rather have some rando FS card.
-
I wouldn't be surprised if there is another collection down the road, maybe all you will need is the Trout card.

Speak for yourself when you say we want future stars

Trout fits the bill perfectly though. He's an objective 5 tool player that lacks nowhere. The only real differences between him and Honus is the fact that Honus came out of nowhere, and played at a much thinner position talent wise. Trout being an OF is really the only factor that hurts this card.

This is what a lot are missing, 95 with solid quirks and the 99 MVP are d@mn near the same. The difference in play with the cards will be microscopic
