With that multi-console contract money they had to have signed so many new guys. Huge cash cow if they did too. They've already released 8 and it's barely February. I'm getting more pumped everyday for 20.
Very cool the game will be available on Xbox and the Switch... VERY COOL !!!

Not a legend to most but he is to me, can’t they put Mark Grace in team affinity or something of that nature?

He’s more of a legend than a lot of guys we have already.

I am a Reds fan, and so by that I have no love for the Cubs. But you are absolutely correct. He is often overlooked, because he played in the steroid era at a power position, but had very little power. But was a great hitter. Lifetime .303/.383/.442 that is a .825 OPS very good hitter. Not HOF, but still good. I saw people saying Sean Casey, very similar player. Lifetime. 302/.366/.447. Basically Casey had more power but Grace got on base more.

What do you guys think John olerud's card will look like?? (assuming it's a SS)
R 115/80 L 105/74
vis/disc - close to Max
Diamond defense
Or is that too generous, not generous enough? -

That's a good call. I'm thinking power vs lefties might be identical. Power vs righties maybe 80-85 range.

Or is that too generous, not generous enough?I think it will be a bit more than "slightly" more power, but that probably gets into semantics in how we value slightly.
Olerud's highest slugging % was .599 (1993) and .551 (1998)
Keith's highest was .513 (1979).
That's a big enough divide that since Keith has 70/69. we could see up to 90ish for Olerud.Keith's highest ISO was .173, Oleruds was .236

I'd consider that SLG % difference slight in a macro sense, but it very well could put Olerud in the 80/90 range, depending on the methodology they use. Either way, I'm stoked. He was a lot of fun to watch growing up and sounds like he'll be a more than serviceable card early in the game's cycle.

I was thinking something close to jackie Robinson's hitting stats........ with diamond D.
if hes released early on he will be a great card to use. definetly will run him and alomar together -

They better increase the dove factor to 21 Jump Street levels if they add the Big Unit.

I just want a new legend to represent the Rockies that isn't Shovelface. Holliday doesn't count either.
Larry Walker?
