Be cool if Raimel Tapia or Austin Gomber got something.

I would think Schoop is going to be the lightning card, but maybe not. Sometimes they mix it up. I know he hasn't been playing predominantly 2nd base, but Semien getting the card last month and playing second, MIGHT change that pick. I think it's between Schoop and Gary Sanchez.
Merely my humble 2 cents.
Schoop absolutely deserves it though.Schoop is getting a POTM card but not likely the 97-98 card. Schoop will probably get a 94-95 if he keeps it up. No way SDS releases back to back 2nd baseman for lighting reward.

That's actually what I was trying to say, but I kind of went in circles... Ha ha. Thank you for stating clearly what I was meaning.

Schoop absolutely deserves it though.Gary wouldn't crack a top 30 if I was picking them but who knows
He's been going off for a bit now. Big home runs. Clutch, game winners. He's seeing it very well and has gotten hot after shortening his leg kick. I think he gets a POTM card for sure. But, like you said. Who knows?

I honestly have no clue who’s numbers are the best this month. Brantley and altuve have been nice but I haven’t seen who’s really standing out. Does anyone know where you can find month by month stats?
I'll take any Astros card!
Let’s hope altuve gets an MVP card sometime this year.
Only if it comes with an Asterik on it or he is a common card but when you play @ the Astros stadium he turns into a 99.
Speaking of asterisks, how's that 60 game WS looking? Hope your necks don't get cramped from looking up at the SF Giants of all teams.

Michael Brantley is hitting .509 this month, leads majors with 1.292 OPS. He's getting a card even if he didn't play the full month. So is Schoop. 10 homers in the month for Schoop, 1.271 OPS second only to Brantley. Interestingly, Nelson Cruz is third, but we know that whole thing because of the fielding.
Schwarber and Altuve each have 10 homers. Schoop and Schwarber lead with 22 RBIs. Matt Olson is maybe a sneaky pick for the top diamond (since it would have to be a legitimate boost from his live series if he got one).
Kyle Hendricks is a likely SP pick. He's 5-0 with a 2.37 ERA. They already gave TN to Ray and DeSclafani, same with Peralta and Cease. Of course, deGrom deserves it, just don't see them doing it. Maybe this will be Gausman's month. Charlie Morton or Trevor Rogers are possibilities.

I would be excited with an Uncle Mike or Correa card. Brantley's consistent approach at the plate is just flat out impressive.

Astros are cheating again.

I'll allow that for other Astros but I would exclude Yordan and Uncle Mike
-
Altuve or Matt Olson should be the lightning. Also need a Schwarber with catcher eligibility please
-
Schwarber, Olson, Shoop, but sleeper pick would be a Craig Kimbrel....that guy has been FIRE!!!!
