Have had a horrible day at work and opened this up and all I had to see was the title of this thread and knew everything would be all better!
The sun will come out tomorrow, bro!

I hope they don't make me wait forever to get a 99 Arenado. I would have accepted Bregman, I would have accepted either Pitcher of The Month but passing up Arenado for Mookie does not sit well with me. Especially since this was the second time Arenado has won POTM and been passed over.
Oh, well, there is a bright side to this for me, and that is that barring any other Cardinals being included in the program I can just skip the POTM grind this month.
If they give Arenado the Matt Carpenter treatment of last POTM program he could still be incredible. I have my doubts they will give him a card this month though. A lot of people including myself don’t really like him in this game. His swing is pretty awkward unfortunately but Mookie on the other hand is loved by almost everyone in game. I do agree hat Arenado did deserve it and I am a fan of him as a ball player.

I actually hope they don't, not just because it means that I can skip the program but because giving a henchman card to Arenado or even Bregman when they won the actual POTM awards is freaking insulting.
Oh well my play time has already been scaled back. This kind of makes it easier to scale back more.

Yay Mookie!!
Everyone that isn't a Cardinals fan is happy with this choice!
(well maybe except Astros fans but like the one gracious fan admitted, they've been spoiled by Monthly programs)I don't mind people being happy about it. I just get a little annoyed by people who think he actually deserved it.

Surprise is mookie since he probably could have received a finest or flashback 99 card later in the cycle. Probably means this will be his highest card.
(2018 and beyond won't get a retro finest)
is that something they've stated or your conclusion? not arguing, I have no clue and wanted to know more. 2018 the start of finest cards?
2018 was the start of finest cards, yes. 17 had a finest program but they weren't their own card series. I just don't think we will get retro finest cards for those years because for the most part, any finest worthy season already got a finest card when that game was out. Mookie had a finest card in 18 but his awards card from last year based on the same season was better anyhow

I feel you man. I get your frustrations. It’s kind of a slap in the face for Cards fans.

To be honest, I think I said it here before that I fully expected he would be overlooked again, but that I also expected Bregman or Gallen to win. I would have understood any of those choices.
This one kind of gnaws at me.

Him being overlooked and goldy for some of his months just screams finest though.
Bregman wouldnt-too many astros MAs, and Gallen....not many would be exited by that. -

I have no doubt we will see 99 Arenado and Goldy. I was just hoping for some sooner rather than later. I am one of those guys who fades out near the end of the season so there is a good chance I will get little to no play time with those cards now.

I’m sure Arenado will get a juiced up 97 card.

I've always wanted to be first on something like this. I think I'm first.
Need the 2B secondary or he’s straight to the bench.
Who do you guys have at rf that you don't wanna bench? I mean, imo the best options there are Juan Soto and Babe and I do think I like Mookie's swing better than both of them, that may just be me tho idk

Don't forget, Mookie is the best two-way player not named Ohtani:

I usually use Centerfielders in right if I’m not using Soto,Ruth,Clemente,or Griffey Sr. Tbh right now I have Corbin Carroll in right and he’s been insane for me. Batting almost .500 with 29 home runs.

Not gonna lie. He throws a pretty nice curve ball. Lol

Cardinals bats we’re on fire in August. I’m sure there is at least 1 in the program.

In my opinion they should not even include him if he's not going to get the lightening.

Yeah Arenado should be the Lightning but this is a good pick to make more people happy. I get that we have lots of solid 3Bs. We also have loads of good outfielders too: McCutchen, JRod x2, Soto x2, Griffey and Mantle and Mays oh my (I know I know, they should be better and we will get better versions). There's also Riley Greene, Corbin Carrolll, Stanton, Buxton, Babe, Eric Davis, Cedric, Bellinger, Kaline, Yordan and many other solid cards with many more yet to come.
I don't think position should have any bearing on who they pick. But I do get why Mookie is the more appealing all around player right now.
