I think it has to be with the biggest names we haven't seen yet, like a Mantle or DiMaggio, although the latter was notoriously cheap and guarded after his career (he wanted to sue Simon & Garfenkul about that Mrs Robinson song).
But since the theme of MLB 20 is 90's-early 2000's, we should be expecting someone from that era. I have a tough time finding someone from that era that would fit the bill who's not already in the game. At least for positional players.
-
Longshot here, very unlikely. But they're focusing on 2000s and 90s. I'm going to go with one of the big 3 who haven't been in game yet. Bonds, McGuire, Sosa. Big names I grew up watching, would love to see Sosa more than anyone.
-
I thinks it's going to be one of the new legends already revealed. Big Papi SS, is what I'm thinking.

Sosa is a bit of a freak now though

Lmao that's so true. I lived near Chicago as a kid, Frank Thomas (im a closet White Sox fan tbh) was my favorite player but Sosa was my #2.

Who doesn’t love Big Frank? Just a giant teddy bear imo.

Hard for me to imagine the devs making the LS collection reward a pitcher. It's one of their biggest early moneymakers on game release and I don't think they risk that spot on either a reliever or a card whose usage you can't really control.
See last year, Hornsby for NL, Pudge for AL, Mays for MLB. It'll be a position player, as well it probably should be.
-
Bonds for NL, ARod for AL and Hank Aaron for MLB.
You heard it here first!

Man, I get jealous when I see everyone ecstatic about Legends year after year. I want to feel that excited, and the only way I can see it happening is if Bonds is miraculously included in a version of the game. Only card that would put me over the moon like that.

Full disclosure: They could substitute Pete Rose instead of Bonds for NL, but they seem to be focusing on the more recent era.

Aaron possible, A-Rod probably not, Bonds, no way.
If they got Bonds, he would have been at very minimum showed in opening trailer, if not the cover boy. I'm sure they would have to put him on the cover on top of how ever much he would charge for his rights. He didn't even like his likeness being in as part of the MLBPA deal.

What is funny is I am sure they could get Rose easy, he will do about anything for money, but it's clear they want no part of that drama.

2020 is going to be all about the drama, you just gotta believe!
They already showed Sheffield and Brian Roberts. They already have Jason Giambi, Benito Santiago, Bartolo Colon, Eric Gagne and Melky Cabrera.
Time for Sosa, Mcgwire, Canseco, Clemens, Manny Ramirez, Pettitte and the rest of the gang!

Yeah, but none of them are banned from baseball. Rose is drama on a whole other level. But I see what you are saying.

True, but Rose and Shoeless Joe will be revealed as WS rewards in June. 🤫

Haha. Yeah it would be a statement by SDS for sure. They have no reason to keep them out, other than to not want to get involved.

MLB is not going to want a player on the permanently ineligible list in an officially licensed game.

Yah Bonds as a member of the Pirates. I kid.
In all honesty I hope they include him this year though.

Aww, you need to put your tinfoil hat on man! Maybe SDS negotiated allowing Rose and Shoeless Joe in their game in exchange for The Show going cross platform as MLB wanted? lol
