@Collin_SDS_PSN ......It's TIME to break your own "UNWRITTEN RULES." Give Shohei what he and we deserve......a juiced two way June POTM Card!
Meh I’d rather them not. He’ll get his card eventually and his 89 is plenty good right now if you parallel it.
-
What i love about the Lighting card is we get players like schwarbs who most likely will cool down after the all star break. For one month you can be the best player on the planet.
Ohtani is a special, special talent. He will get a 99 this year forsure but schwarbs deserves the monthly

Why not both : )
-
Schwarber and Schoop are the only choices...
-
I’m just hoping for an Austin Gomber. Make him the lowest card, I don’t care! I need another pitcher badly!
-
If the POTM lightning card isn't Schwarber, who has 16 home runs in 18 games, 16 of which are in the month of June, then I have no idea how sds comes up with monthly award cards.
-
I’d like to see a Bryan Reynolds card.
-
How can it not be Schwarber?
-
I think its gonna be Schwarber but if he doesnt get the lighting at least the 94 overall range
-
Schwarber is doing things that haven’t been done in a long time, If ever. He is the hottest hitter in baseball and he never gets high diamond cards. Would love to see it

I do agree that it will likely be Schwarber, and he is VERY deserving (although he still cant hit LHers and he will only really have any value IF he has a C secondary (where he has literally played in 1 Game Since the 2017 season)......but Ohtani is doing something that hasnt been done since the days of Babe Ruth. He has a 13 HR and 1.300+ OPS in June (.150 more than Schwarber, and as a pitcher in june, 4 starts, 2 wins, 23 IP, just 5 walks and 32 K with a 1.08 WHIP (he has 1 more start tonight as well)
-
Can Trevor Rogers get any love? He's had at least 5IP with 3 or less ER every start this season. Not to mention his overall statistics.

That just sounds slightly above average when talking about POTM. He’s had a great year overall though.
-
you heard it here first Justin Upton gets one of the lower diamond. He hit .338 with 4 homers in June.

I guess. He's a top 15 starter in baseball on the season, by every measure and hasn't even got a topps now card. Anyways POTM lightning could be Buehler, Acuna, Schwarber, Ohtani or Correa. Matt Olson, Sean Manaea and Jonathan Schoop have also had a big June but doubt any of them would get the lightning

How can the June Lightning Card NOT BE Shohei Ohtani? He's only a low Diamond live series and while he has a lower POTM in April, he's just playing in another higher league this month. June POTM is gonna be insane if its him and we also get a Schwarbomb too!
Ohtani will probably get another Future Stars or some sort of stacked All Star card this year or maybe he will be the Angels finest but I can’t seem them waiting that long.
Probably get a Matt Olson and Schwarber maybe something like a gold unless they juice his vs lefties.
-
Kenley Jansen will likely be the RP card.
-
As a Tigers fan I just want Schoop to get a card (which he should and probably will). The lightning will probably be Schwarber because he just keeps hitting bombs. A few days ago I'd have said Olson but I think he'll be the second highest position player now.
In all honesty though, Ohtani is doing things that haven't been done in my lifetime. He should be the top guy but I understand they don't want to have one guy to have 20 cards in the game cycle.
Unless it's John Smoltz.
