Does Lester get a 200 win card?
-
He has 2 starts left to achieve this.
-
The guy deserves a good card. I would prefer a No-hitter card but giving him a 200 win Milstone to get the Cards another legend wouldn't be a bad idea
-
Bump, 200 wins. Lets have it SDS. You wasted no time on Scherzer 300 wins Milestone card. I know it's 300 vs 200 but it doesn't even need to be a 99...96-98 would be fair
-
I think he gets a player program in the 7th inning. It's that or he's one of the evolution players for next months daily program
-
Scherzer Milsetone was for 3000 Ks not 300 wins just for reference

I'd take it. We have about 3 versions of Gibson and a Signature Wainwright but beyond that the starting pitchers for the Cardinals aren't that great.
99 Bob Gibson
96 Wainwright
88 Jack Flaherty
87 Cy Young
86 Matthew LiberatoreThat being said, the Red Sox fans would probably be upset. I think it is a dangerous path that SDS is taking with the milestone cards where it puts the best version of a card on a team that they are not really known for. It alienates a lot of fans.

It's still good for them if they like the player though. The only card I stay away from using from the wrong team is Bryce Harper MVP because he's #34, not #3. Live series is plenty good for me. But also a starting pitcher you could use for the Cardinals is John Smoltz. J.A. Happ TN. Not sure who else

If Lester gets one it will be Red Sox, or possibly Cubs. He's pitched 1 season with the Cardinals and has a era of 4.59. I know it would be for his 200th win (he could get a Tops Now card as a Cardinal) but your right in saying that if he gets a 99 with them it would alienate a lot of fans.

I'm unfortunately one of those who, on my Cardinals only team, only use players who are in the game as Cardinals.
Although I will admit that I added my four best pitchers onto my Cardinal Team to knock the 96 Wainwright down to #5 and I just use him every game (I only play offline so I can do that)

He DEF deserves a 200 win card!! Only 3 active pitchers with 200 wins and he’s one of them!!

I really like that Wainwright, he plays above his attributes. Great card.

Cardinal fans asking for a milestone Lester card for their theme team. Gotta love it. No shame.

I'm a Cardinals fan and I have to agree, Lester if he gets a 99 should be a Cubs or Red Sox Sig Series or maybe if they do a postseason program and add new cards (although, wasn't that what Lester's TA2 card was?)
I do love that Waino card. Too bad Chris Carpenter isn't in the game. He'd be fun with a Cy Young Award 99.
-
I "guess" 200 wins is a milestone, I dunno, I mean Tim Wakefield has 200 wins, lets get his card too! LOL
-
After googling this, I had no idea Cy Young had over 500 wins! thats INSANE!

If you have been doing the daily moments every day, you would get the career milestone Cy Young for 511 wins today.

Lester is 37, he’s about 500ks from 3,000.. Say he pitches for 4-5 more years, he could end up with mid 200s wins and 3,000ks... I don’t think of him as a hall of famer, but he getting that magic K number he could get in.
-
They can give Lester the highest attributes known to man but his card and delivery is always dinger Central. Absolutely nothing about his cards ever fool a hitter. I love Jon Lester he helped my cubbies win the World Series in 2016 but his cards just do not translate in this game.

Just want SDS to be consistent, they gave Scherzer his best card, a DODGERS milestone card with only like a few starts with them. I would be P'oed if I were a Tigers or Nats fan. Be consistent with the milestones, dont trip over yourselves for big markets to please them

I dont know if it is about the team more than the accomplishment. 119 players have 200 wins vs 19 have 3000 K's. They can make a card for him but it will just be for collections.
