Yup I had Perez too. I also utilized the gold Steve Cishek in 17 and Rajai Davis FB in 16. I remember Seager, got him as a silver iirc and he just hit everything.

Content is meh imo. I despise the super cards we've seen from the last 2 years, LS Trout needs to be a 99 again. Imagine the quality of these players if stats ended at 99 like in 17. There would be far far more choices for end game.
Why would there be far more choices? I'm not arguing against the idea of LS being 99 again, but I fail to see how it would create more choices? Would LS Trout be usable? Sure, but then there wouldn't be a 99 Immortal/Sig/Finest Trout, so at best it's a draw, not "more" choices.
Specific Gold cards would still be useable, so would LS diamonds.
But when LS diamonds are usable, they won't get higher flashbacks. And I don't think golds would still be usable at this point in the year. As I said before, it's a draw at best.
Not true at all, scherzer was a diamond in 17 and had a 95 ovr diamond flashback that you got for collecting all the tigers
Live series Donaldson was 92 overall diamond in 17 and had a 99 ovr hardware flashback
Ok, but I wouldn't say that creates more lineup diversity. If you're using LS Donaldson or Flashback Donaldson, you're still using Donaldson. I think 2019 had the most usable cards and lineup diversity. Both because of the amount of high-rated cards released and how cheap the market has been on them.
Again, I think LS Trout and such should be 99, but I don't think it the statement "There would be far far more choices for end game" is true. -
This is my 7th year. Overall, I thought the content this year was great. A couple end-game cards were released early (Kershaw, Ryan) which got old quickly, but to me that only engaged everyone early. I’m not an online player and don’t have the patience to spend much time on the market, and I don’t buy stubs, but that’s OK. I don’t have Ruth or Chipper or SS Sale, but pretty much everyone else I want, just from grinding.
I felt the content and drops overall this year were very well done. Especially coming off the catastrophe of last year’s ultra-grindy Legends... and those [censored] souvenirs. (shudders)
Lots of modes, tons of players, snd enough reasons for me to keep playing even into January. Compared to some previous efforts, I would say they did quite a good job compared to years past.

Overall, I think it was a good game. I probably played less this year than in years past due to the content on the DD side, and I just did not feel like doing a Franchise. Next year, I have vowed to get myself back into Franchise, I just wish there were better options for season length etc.
I could not get into the idea of MtO, so I never touched it. DD was really plagued this year for me without having the career arcs and building stats for players. I never felt like I actually used my team. I am not a fan on conquest, so those grinds were awful for me. Also, moments were not fun as well. I hate the player lock aspect on some of them (pitching), and they felt too much like the solos on Madden Ultimate Team. The reason that I left MUT was the monotonous soloing, like the moments were this year. Cool idea, just felt like stuff other games were already doing.
With that being said, I still think The Show is the best sports game on the market.
