Alright this is a little premature with 5 teams to be revealed 2 of them new legends but who is your 1st overall draft target. There are all of great cards to be excited for.
For me I hate the Yankees but 95 PS Lou Gehrig is the #1 card. I haven't used in the last 2 years so I want him in my line up
This is gonna sound weird but the Brandon Webb might be my first pick. I need pitching and let’s face it, his sinker is gonna be nasty.
Probably Gehrig considering I’m still rocking Dom Smith 42 series at first. After that I’m thinking either Sam Huff or one of these pitchers. That blue Jays SS looks nice though

That Webb card is 100% going to be nasty he's has meta for this game as you can get with his mix
Iron Horse for me. His attributes should be crazy good. His stats for the 4 games that WS:
G1: 2-4 with 1 2B
G2: 1-3 with 1 HR, 1 BB
G3: 2-2 with 2 HR, 2 BB
G4: 1-2 with 1 HR, 3 BB
.545 BA, .706 OBP, 1.727 Slugging, 2.433 OPS

White sox crochet. His diamond bullpen card was nasty last year and this card will be a SP.
Where did you see the Crochet reveal?

He probably won't be real great against lefties I imagine. Gehrig, Mays, and Ripken have a major hole somewhere in each of their attributes that makes them a 94-95 instead of 99s like they will get later on. That's just my assumption at least

Groshans for me.
I think they were making up for Kevin Smith last year
I feel like every Blue Jays card so far has been an apology for Kevin Smith. Man that was just such a kick in the gut last year.
Also I really hope Topps Now we get a diamond Mohan card cause that was a debut worthy of a Topps Now card
As a Yankee fan -- Gehrig. I loved his Sig card from 2 years ago when I had it.
Although it will depend on stats...Thome might be a better option for power bat.
Then I'm kinda eyeing Oswalt. His h/9 is usually too low to be really good but I always loved his pitch mixes and hes worked well. Crochet might be interested too.

Yes sir! Awesome performance!
Hoping there is a future stars Gabriel Moreno in our future too! He's destroying AA. And the Jays lack a catcher card in this game every year

You're probably right. Looking it up, I think he was 2-7 vs LHP with some BBs mixed in.
BTW, Babe Ruth was 10-16 this WS. Ruth and Gehrig combined for 16-27 with 7 HRs. The rest of the team combined was 21-107.
My first pick is a tough one...always been a Oswalt fan, but the webb card is intriguing as well....and if the Phil's card turns out to be Carlton...decision will be even harder lol
Pitchers pitchers and pitchers. The 4th and 5th slots have been pretty weak so far. Probably the 3rd too. Maybe some of these dudes can do it.
