I would’ve much rather preferred a finest Cedric Mullins,Buxton or Ohtani.
Yeah, a Finest 99 Ohtani hitter would have been cool. Not very interested in either of the other players.

Do you all think these will go down in price pretty quickly or because they are the only new cards, maybe they'll stay high for a while?
Please bust your .

Another exception to the once you get a milestone/sig/prime/awards card you cant get another of those 4 theory.

Tbf this is the only time it hasn't made sense. Getting a finest card after one of those 4 has precedent(Salvy and Story last year). Smoltz and Eckersley make sense too with 1 of each starter/reliever card

Hard to say, there's gonna be less orders, cause they're not as good, but there will also probably be fewer people trying to grind out the wins to get them. If I has to guess I'd say they'll probably fall faster than Trea though

Very disappointed by not seeing a 99 Puckett in 2021.

Lofton? After he already had a milestone card???
Exactly. I don't get it. Feels pretty lazy of the part of SDS especially with so many others that need better cards.

Really weird rewards…no Andrew Jones or Kirby Puckett still? Starting to think they forgot they got Kirby Puckett as a new legend this year? Did they somehow lose his rights after releasing his first cards?
Wasn't Puckett accused of a bunch of terrible stuff from multiple women? Maybe there was some backlash and they went the Alomar route with him.
I don’t think any of us give SDS money so they can play morality police, I’m certainly not. Nor is anyone more or less likely to commit a crime because they used a pixilated athlete in a video game. Ridiculous if this is why they haven’t released his 99.

Kenny Lofton has good defense with an average arm. He’s kinda like a Dee Gordon type player. There’s better options.
But what would you pay for a Signature Kenny Loggins?
-
Just buy Tony Gwynn he’s a better version of Lofton imo.

I’d sell all my players and use all my remaining stubs and for at least one at bat with Kenny Loggins.

When were these “new allegations” against Puckett? I live in Minnesota and am pretty plugged into the local reporting but haven’t heard anything recently. Certainly haven’t heard anything since he first appeared in the game.

This is what I thought, the allegations against him were a long time ago and I believe resolved a long time ago.
I haven't heard anything new but in this day and age, who knows. I wish we had Puckett 99.

Just thinking here, this is a 3 part event, right? So maybe these are the lower end of the rewards? Maybe they add some guys like Puckett or Killebrew in the next few stages of the event.

They don't add rewards to multiple part events. It will be the same rewards when part 2 rolls around

I'm still of the opinion that we see a milestone no hitter for AJ Burnett. That would make way more sense than retroactively making a finest card for Trout from years ago, or what they did with Harper, or this confusing decision on Lofton.

The event says Part 1 of 2. Part 1 only goes for a week, and I'd imagine Part 2 will be the same. The reward path goes up to 60 wins, so that's already 30 wins per week to max it out if Part 2 is the same length. I can't see them adding anything more to the reward path.

Yeah no new allegations whatsoever. I'm just trying to make sense of the absence of a better Kirby card. I would hope they would be the better people and only base the inclusion of players/cards on their on-field performance, as the Puckett stuff is ancient history. But they screwed us out of Alomar even though he was never found guilty of anything and his charges were dropped so nothing would surprise me.

@bhall09_psn said in Kenny lofton ... fred mcgriff ...:
McGriff was one some people were waiting on for an upgraded version. I don’t think anyone was pining for another Lofton. And I say that as someone who will use Lofton as a fun change of pace in Conquest. Plus it’s an awards card and this is a Signature and Finest event (not that we need more finest). A sig Puckett, Killebrew (the two I’m waiting on), Andruw, Trammell, Marichal maybe.
Tino Martinez too!

That was 15 years ago. They wouldn't have put him in the game to begin with if that was the case
Plus he's dead, so he's not benefiting from being included.
