I posted this somewhere else, but the post got me thinking.
What cards would you like to see in the game but for outside of baseball reasons we know we will never see.
This is a serious question and a great conversation to have.
I will start with the biggest POS and a dude that should never be in the game but would have one heck of a card.
This is not an endorsement of the player or his beliefs, this is purely based on his on field exploits.1999 PS John Rocker
That guy was so clutch that postseason. I remember his epic ABs vs Mike Piazza. That NLCS was one of the best performances by a reliever I have ever seen in the playoffs.I looked up his #'s from that postseason and they were even better than what I remembered.

0.00 ERAum no dude, rocker had a couple good years that's it- braves didn't even win '99 series against yanks, I'd rather have mark "the bird" fidirich (apologies if I spelled that wrong), Mitch Williams, heck id take thad bossily over rocker and bossily was a career pinch hitter- rocker is a douche- Hank Aaron walked away from his conversation rolling his eyes cause rocker is a complete ignorant person, rockers career died after '99 and it should remain dead.
I never said Rocker should get a Prime or SS card. But that Post season he was untouchable.
And I know he is a POS, I even mentioned it several times in my opening post. The purpose of this post was to discuss cards that will never be in the game because of off the field stuff.
On the field, especailly in the 99 post season Rocker was a beast. The Yanks beat the Braves, but it wasn't b/c Rocker didn't do his job.

0.00 ERAif rocker were ever to see the light of day in this game it would only show sds is racist and homophobic, rocker is a douche.

Yeah Rocker is a douche, that isn't up for debate.
But having a player in the game is not an endorsement of their beliefs. -

@samguenther1987 said in Controverstial Cards we will never see:
Raul Mondesi
Pete Rose
Strawberry (sorry guys it's not happening)
Chuck Knoblock
Josh Hamilton
Lenny Dykstra
Kirby Puckett
Roger ClemensAnd of course Barry Bonds
I would ad Curt Schilling to the list too. Great pitcher, absolute C U next tuesday of a person. I like that you didn’t throw Sosa/McGwire in here because personally I think all the steroid users have a chance to get in apart from Bonds and Clemens
Thanks, i forgot about Schilling, he would be nice to have on a team despite his behavior problems. I figgure Ramirez/Sosa/ and McGwire have a chance to get into a mlb the show game eventually but i'm not so sure about Clemens.
Also notice i didn't include Roy Holliday who i really believe should eventually be added.
Also i just realized i forgot about Jose Fernandez though and he should be on my list.

My 2:
King Kelly (tough to translate given the way the game's evolved but oh the anecdotes on this guy...)
Joseph Jefferson Jackson -

I would love to see a good portion of these guys so when they do all time teams we can have more accurate lineups instead of some guy from the live series.

Jose would have won multiple Cy Youngs, it really sucks what happened. However unlike Halladay he killed his friends in the process so thats why he makes my list.
