We need the 90's guys in the game already...
-
They just need to put guys like Sosa, McGwire, Bonds/Stocker, Palmero, etc into the game already... I dont care about the [censored] steroids. It would be so awesome to be able to use these guys finally.
-
Sosa and McGwire would be awesome. Bonds isn’t happening. Some other 90s-early 2000s guys I think would be cool would be Garciaparra, Juan Uribe, Adrian Beltre, Vinny Castilla... oh and where TF is Juan Pierre this year?
-
Steroids isn't why they aren't in the game. All those guys have extremely high egos and won't give up their rights. At least not for what SDS is willing to pay
-
Carlos Delgado please!
-
I want Derek Bell and Lance Berkman so I can make a true Killer B's Astros team from when I was a kid.
Also give me Glenn Davis.

I don't, at least for Sosa, Mcgwire and Palmeiro. That is 100% true for Bonds though. I just Think it's safe to assume the same for the others

It's a matter of rights and when acquiring the right to their likeness some guys have a high price point cause of how the see them selves and their value in their own image. The 4 guys named all think very highly of themselves and what their image should be worth

I can still see Palmeiro pointing his finger at the commission... what an [censored]

Bo Jackson and Jose Canseco would be insane

It seems like Lance Berkman is underrated today. He doesnt get mentioned as often as others from that time period. He had some great seasons.

Yeah, looking back he was good. At the time, I really didn't like him as much because I always felt he was just trying to hit homeruns. Every time I watched him hit, he was striking out or popping up.

Being a Brewers fan, I watched a lot of Astros games (they were in the same division previously) and they were tough for a while. The talent just never amounted to much. Berkman, Biggio, Bagwell, Oswalt, Wagner off the top of my head. Pretty dirty. In 2004 they had the 3 Bs (Berkman, Biggio & Bagwell), Jeff Kent, Carlos Beltran, Brad Ausmus, Willy Taveras, Oswalt, Roger Clemens, Andy Pettite, Dotel, Brad Lidge.

I'd like a '93 Juan Gonzalez SS card and a Sig Julio Franco to go please.

Na, Berkman walked a ton. He was very patient. 100 walks a year level.. dude was an on base machine. Very underrated

I would some more O’s 90s and 00s players to fill out my roster. Mussina, Palmeiro, Mora, Hoiles, Brady Anderson, and BJ Surhoff just to name a few. I’m still waiting for the Brady Anderson 50 HR season card.
-
Give me Mark Grace
-
I always wonder if they have a wink wink (or hidden rider) agreement with MLB not to touch the controversial guys. Hell Pete Rose would probably sign up for like 600 bucks. Can’t imagine that ALL of the steroid guys Sosa, Mac, Bonds, Canseco, Clemens, etc have numbers way too high. Seems more likely SDS/MLB are not inclined to sign them. Do we really think that Griffey doesn’t cost a fortune compared to what most of the rest would cost?

uh wrong... Bonds does but the rest don't. It's the mlbpa that keeps most of those guys out.
