Releasing Of New Cards- major miss

The real travesty is if it's true they lost the rights to Teddy Ballgame... That's a crazy loss.. He is as much a staple to any baseball game with historic players as Babe
I have no knowledge of why he's gone, but from history, his kids were in a nasty battle for his rights, and they took advantage of him big time. Kind of happy those people aren't making more money off their father's name

Clemens never admitted to using, and never had a positive test. His name was in the Mitchell report. Same as Brian Roberts, Jason Giambi, Benito Santiago and others. I really dont understand why people are so anti-Clemens. I mean, he probably took PEDs, but so many others did and still are in the HOF. They all deserve to be in, especially since theyve already inducted known/admitted PED players anyway.

I tend to agree with you here, as the reason Clemens and Bonds are singled out is simply because they were the 2 of the greatest players in history. Bonds being statistically the greatest.. Clemens easily top 5 pitcher all time..
What hurts Bonds case on top of that is his mouth... And what hurts Clemens is being a central figure in the Mitchell report.Did they use? 100% they did.. are they hall of fame worthy anyways? I believe so. The greatest talents I've ever seen roids or not.

its too early to drop a very talented card, even tho I wish they did. last year I believe the early guys were posada, keith hernadez. one thiing I think they completely boofed is only one player evolution, the mix of cargo, eddiie, and dennis was so fun to evovle, though I guess everyone semi evolves now.
Lofton not talented enough for you?!? I’ve always enjoyed his cards, speed is always fun, fair arm, and the surprise bombs when you square it up are great for lead off.
Sure he wont be starting if OF once the titans drop, but I’d be hard pressed to take him out completely.
hes a boss, not a free player reward like he was mentioning houston street. I dont prefer lofton as im not a bunter

I remember in past years there would be launch videos and or hints on Twitter for who the new cards could be being released each week. Is this still happening? Really took the excitement out of the new card releases in DD. (Don’t think this was in last years game either.) Major miss, especially with all the negative press around this game right now due to the servers. It would give players something to look forward to each week and have something else to talk about besides the [censored] servers that have crippled the game.
Also disappointed that we are referring to Huston Street as a legend. How is there not a contract for any of steroids era guys and clear misses on HOF players.
Still no:
Randy Johnson
Roger Clemens
Barry bonds
Sosa
Mussina
Manny Ramirez
ArodThe list can go on and on too
You will be waiting forever for 5 of those 7 players you named.. all disgraced cheaters. Only Unit and Moose I can see being added of course, which would both be great.
Bonds wasn't even in video games when he played!!! He wasn't a part of the Union.
Actually, Bonds was in Ken Griffey Jr.'s Slugfest.
He didn't leave the union until around 2003.
When his head was the size of a planet, physically and metaphorically...
He was Jon Dowd in MVP.. lolBonds was in video games. He was in Sega baseball games when the first disk game came out. That might have been when you were a child (don't know your age though) but he was in games for sure.

Even then, Eric Davis and Huston Street aren't any different from the first inning player programs last year, which were Curtis Granderson and the Kerry Wood that is currently the Cubs collection reward

There's already cheaters in the game, and have been in the past as well. There's a team collection reward that's a cheater this year..
Suspected...
Dee Gordon is the Marlins reward...
He's in the union.. don't understand how that works?
How about Gagne, Giambi, Brian Roberts then?
None were suspended and admitted only to doing them before it was banned
Then surely Bonds, Clemens, McGwire, Sosa, Canseco and Palmeiro should be in the game then? The only two players that fit your profile are Arod and Manny. SDS isn't keeping those guys out of the game for using roids. They won't give up their rights for anything less than SDS' entire legend budget
I guarantee SDS adheres to what MLB and MLBPA says what they want or don't want to be represented, just as they do about charging the mound in a video game.. some of those names are absolute no go's for the league I'm sure. Just as Pete Rose would be.
In 18 they had Lenny Dykstra in the game and had Aubrey Huff in 19. I don't think the MLB cares who they put in the game. Ty Cobb as well, even though his story is mostly inaccurate.
Dykstra.. lol. He was gone the next year, same time he was arrested
For the 2nd time after filing for bankruptcy in 2011, being named on the Mitchell report, and serving half a year in prison in 2012
What does bankruptcy have to do with anything? I get the other stuff but who cares if he went bankrupt?
