Reds will most likely be Brandon Phillips. They might throw us something older though. The Nasty Boys (Norm Charlton or Randy Myers, we already have Dibble). Might even go further back and get a Bench 99, maybe a Ted Kluszewski.
Going off of an assumption that they will repeat from TA2 this year and TA3 last year as little as possible then Larkin is the best bet for the reds
Only reason I didn't put Larkin is they already have a diamond for him and BP hasn't received anything yet this season. He has a diamond card for the last 4 seasons and I expect him to get one again.

Is BP even in the game anymore? His best card has always been 94-95 overall anyhow
-
Hard to predict these. Lot of really big legends are still to be released but I don't know if they'd put Babe, Foxx, Mays, Griffey, etc. in a program like this.
-
I like Sam's list. Everyone he has shown is at least in the game. I want a 99 Mays and a 99 McCovey at the very least soon.
-
99 pujols if they hadn’t disrespected him with that 97.

This will be the first year he isn't. He has a couple 99s before but its been a couple years for sure. Reds is one of those organizations though that there literally could be 20+ players to pull from that people would like. I would love a Jose Rijo card but I don't think they have his rights.
-
Would like to see a Bobby Witt Jr for the Royals. Salvy already has a load, Brett was the program boss. No one else really good enough for a high diamond. Maybe Saberhagen's Cy Young year. I do miss seeing that 8 year old body on the mound.
Alex Gordon would make me sick.
-
Gordon just retired so they don't have his rights anymore. I'd bet on Mondesi's MA from last year or FS Bobby Witt Jr.

Loaded with 30 bosses (fame and fan request, 1 for each team). Make your picks for your team or any team you wanna predict.
I'll start with my picks for the NL central-
Reds-
Chris Sabo, Barry Larkin or Brandon PhillipsPirates-
Mark Melancon, Bobby Bonilla or Doug DrabekBrewers-
Christian Yelich, Paul Molitor or Robin YountCardinals-
Yadier Molina, Terry Pendleton or Willie McGeeCubs-
Kerry Wood, Moises Alou or Javier Baez. Or Jon LesterI know that's cheating to pick 3 or 4 but whatever
Not cheating, because over half your picks aren't in the game so we won't be seeing them this year.
-
Hopefully this is where Mr. Anthony Keith Gwynn finally shows up this year.

Why just NL Central predictions?
Cause I'm a cards fan and I was lazy. I'll add the other divisions in a bit. Also, someone mentioned they dont have the rights to a bunch of names I listed. I'm only familiar with some of the people not allowed in the game so I'll most likely be off on some of these

That card is great but yeah, I'd love a 99

Oh bummer, yeah I assumed some of them weren't a part of the game. Some of them re wishful thinking.

@bhall09_psn said in TA4 Predictions:
Is this all verified? And we know it’s one of each? If so, knowing what players they have rights to, I’ll say Helton is one of the Rockies. I wonder if they will be 99s. Rockies don’t have any HOFers other thank Walker, who already has his 99.
It would be cool if a 99 Puckett for Twins showed up.
It's on the schedule

I liked it back a few years ago when all the cards were in the game from the start regardless of how hard they were to get. Like Griffey for instance wasn’t obtained for a couple months.
Made BR fun too.

Orioles: I don't think they double up on TA2 but Ripken and Adley are about all the choices there are
Red Sox: Foxx I guess
Yankees: Reggie Jackson
Rays: David Price
Blue Jays: Donaldson
White Sox: Frank Thomas
Indians: Feller
Tigers: Probably Kaline or Newhouser, but a Future Stars Torkleson would be amazing
Royals: Mondesi
Twins: Puckett
Astros: Bagwell
Angels:Percival? They don't really have any options not named trout
A's: Rickey Henderson
Mariners: Griffey
Rangers: Pudge
Braves: Maddux
Marlins: Sheffield
Mets: Seaver
Phillies: Rollins
Nationals:Sherzer
Cubs: Banks
Reds: Larkin(rips)
Brewers: Yount?
Pirates: Honus
Cardinals: Gibson
Diamondbacks: Goldy/ Gonzalez
Rockies: Helton
Dodgers: Snider
Padres: Tatis
Giants: Will ClarkWill be wrong on at least half of these predictions. Only one I'm 100% confident in is Helton
-
Them saying bosses makes me wonder if it will be past years innings bosses.
-
Other than obvious people like Clemens and Bonds, how do people know if baseball has the rights to a player? I know some guys have been banned like Alomar but if it wasn't some big scandals how would we know if a player can't be used?
-
Ok, I'll add some more. If anyone knows that some of these players won't or can't appear. Please share. I have no clue who is on that list other than a few obvious ones.
NL East-
Mets- Tom Seaver, Daryl Strawberry, Doc GoodenPhillies- Roy Halladay, Jimmy Rollins,Cole Hamels, Tug McGraw, Steve Carlton, Mike Schmidt (although he just had a 99 so probably not him).
Braves- Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine, John smoltz, Hank Aaron or Warren Spahn
Marlins- Pudge, Mike Lowell, Josh Beckett, Gary Sheffield, Edgar Renteria
Nationals- Max Scherzer, Stephen Strasburg, Anthony Rendon
