It is a travesty that Marcus Semien is a gold right now
-
What i have found out on this site is that way to many people put to much emphasis on sabermetrics and not the eye test or the pure numbers. Sabermetrics are just a tool..
-
Travesty is bailout money going to shareholders; this is just irrelevant
-
Because WAR is a stupid stat
-
I really hope that they don’t mess this up and try to compensate with a POTM card, just make him dismond

He's about to get a POTM card. I figure folks would be glad he's still gold so he's cheaper.
That’s just stupid, make him the card he deserves to be, if they moved him back to 2B he’d be a diamond already
Don't get mad at me I don't make the decisions lol. I'm sure he'll get upgraded on the next roster update. Also I'm sure he's incredibly thankful to have you fighting for his honor.
Practice the law? I practically perfected it.
I see injustice in the world and I’ve corrected it.I am not here for this post, but I am definitely here for a Lin-Manuel quote. I’m honestly SHOCKED to see that on this forum. Huge fan of his since In the Heights. I saw it live on Broadway and was so blown away. Hamilton is great too.

Jesus, didn't we just have a long thread about this two days ago? Do you think spamming new threads every two days is going to make someone at SDS go "Oh, yeah, we should look at Semien".
He has had a change in every single update so far.
80 to 78 after hitting .216 in April.
78 to 80 after he righted the ship the first half of May
80 to 82 after the second half of May.And my guess is he will get another bump this time. Probably not 3 points. If he keeps it up though he will get there.
You are coming off as a homer or someone who has a lot of stubs invested in Semien.

The thing is he doesn’t need to be boosted, he simply needs to be moved to his correct position but SDS isn’t doing that for some reason

They're live series, if anything this year needs to be weighed more

It is weighted more, but not to the exclusion of the previous years.
It's not SDS's fault that he is not a diamond. If he had played well in April and not gotten downgraded because of it then he may have already made it to diamond.
And don't tell me that they downgraded him too quickly. They downgraded him based on 1 months worth of play (April). You are advocating that he be upgraded by a large amount based on 1 month of play (May)

No I'm arguing that he's literally a WAR leader right now and his last full season he was an MVP finalist. 2020 should not be weighed even close to 2019 or 2021

I like this.

Personal opinion: they should move him to 2B and low diamond. He should be one of the last two POTM cards. The turner analogy is a bit off for a video game as there are attributes (like 99 speed) that reflect physical traits not stats. Even if Turner was hitting .100 he could still have 99 speed and that would prop up his card. I think this gets addressed by bumping his stats all around this update and correcting his position. If the production continues Thales can keep bumping the contact, power etc in subsequent updates.

I was shocked too lol I’m glad that I was in this room where it happened!

Can you at least be happy that he got a really good looking POTM card while you wait for the live series to be bumped up?

I’m not a huge Marcus Semien fan, I just want deserving players to be diamond

Let’s just hope SDS gets this right, even if you’d don’t upgrade him please make him a 2b

Hoping he goes diamond today~!
