Hoping for a Pujols 700 HR Program!

I just hope he has the swing from his Awards card. So many will not use the card if it has his current swing.
Are you serious? His Awards swing is the trash one.
His LS/HRD swing is sooo smooth.

This really feels like a missed opportunity. I am so Hot and cold with this year's game (I'm mostly referring to content). Sometimes I think they hit a home run with the new format and sometimes I feel like it could be so much more.
Most of us will never see another player get to 700 Home Runs. Last year Miggy got a program for 500. Scherzer got one for 3,000 and they were well deserved. But this is has happened 4 times in history. Please give the guy his own program.
I know some people with say it's free don't complain and yeah, I'm stoked for a free card. But I'd prefer to have to earn it and enjoy the content along the way.
Yep. I'm not happy with this at all. How do they not do a program for it?

Laziness and/or not having enough time is my only guess.
Huge opportunity missed IMO.

Charlie Blackmon just said “it took me 37 years to hit 207 home runs. So I’ll be 140 when I reach 700.”
If he played me, it wouldn't take that long!
He ALWAYS homers or gets hits off me in vs. cpu games! -

Very good question. Pujols in general deserves one and you could even expand that out to the whole team, or at least the three elder statesmen who have all written their names at the top of several records.
Pujols - 700 HRs
Molina - MLB record for most Put Outs for a Catcher
Molina/Wainwright - Most Wins as a battery in MLB history
Molina/Wainwright - Most Starts by a battery in MLB historyBut SDS can't come up with a program for Pujols or the team? Definitely seems lazy.

I don't buy the "time" excuse. This is the type of milestone you have a contingency for even if it is a long shot.

Having to get PXP with cardinal players in order to get a maxed out Pujols. That is the one program I would gladly accept without complaint so of course they are not doing that.
With a whole 22 years worth of highlights to choose moments from it seems a bit lazy to just throw it in the shop.
But's it's free and I want the card so I won't complain. The only downside is that ROY Pujols was probably going to be my first P5 ever and now I start fresh. I may never get a P5.
At least were not having to exchange bobble heads and jerseys you can’t actually wear in game.
But I agree, it’s not like this record snuck up on them….some mention of it at start with achieving it being a long shot, but after AS break becoming more and more likely. I’m no programmer by any means, but some moments, some stat missions, etc all seem like it could have been prepared in expectation of the milestone.

The only excuse I can think why this isn't a program is that they have other plans for The Machine since they knew it would be his last season
Unlike Miggy and Max they knew they would be back so is there something else cooking that was pre planned and this is just a cherry on top?
If not then big miss but I will let time play out before I fully commit to missed opportunity

I don't buy that for a second.
We will see in an hour or so. If they have further plans for Albert this year then the card that drops today will be a disappointment to everyone because they won't release a worse version later.

I hope he's right and there is a Pujols program but usually their card is tied to that program. If today's attributes are through the roof we can assume there will be no program. While some of us would welcome content even without his 99 as the ultimate reward, it would seem very off to have a player program without the player's card at the end.

I do believe you’re in the minority.

Like I said, the only excuse I could see that makes sense. I agree this should be tied to a program of some nature but I am usually willing to be positive so I'll hold judgements for a bit.
That card art thought

Just saw the card art, very good looking. Going to open the pack on console, just so I can see gold lights for myself. Likely the only time it will happen.
