I hope this pack brings the cost for some other cards down a bit. I have plenty of stubs, but paying 68-70k on a headliner (Edmonds) just feels wrong when I know he will probably drop like a rock right after the order goes through.
I think we’ll get a stub sale soon. That’ll bring almost all cards down. Ive been waiting for it so I can finish getting Rollins on sale. I could probably get him now but I’ll hold off. Ive been having fun with all the new cards.

Stub sale brings prices up. Flash sales bring prices down

We know there’s probably gonna be a pitcher in there too. Throw out some pitcher ideas. I think we’ll get another Roy Halladay eventually
As long as they have been juicing cards lately (no pun intended juicy pack lol) I wouldn't mind a Juan Marichal with outlier. We haven't had a 99 of him in a few years. Maybe make his screwball break like Fernando's. What I would really like is a 2017 99 Tim Lincecum but I know that's out lol

Those would be cool. I had a lot of fun with Marichals card early this year. I’d love to see Loncecum too but I don’t think they have the rights to him unfortunately.

Oops. That’s what I meant. We just had a stub sale. You’re always on your a game. Lol

These are great. Been looking forward to Lou and Kiner.
My guesses for rare:
Pitchers-
Orel Herschiser or
Bob Gibson (someday I'll be right)Hitters-
Stan Musial
Honus Wagner
Babe Ruth -

Babe RuthThose sound about right. I’d be pretty stoked about a Honus like last year. I wouldn’t have much use for another Stan card but he deserved a 99. Orel and Bob Gibson wouldn’t be bad at all. We need a legit Gibson card with high hits per 9 and maybe outlier. I think he was a hard thrower.

@TEXAS10PT_PSN said in Juicy pack set 2:
I know the rare round will only be 3 players but let's hope its between Jimmie Foxx, Junior Griffey, Mickey Mantle or Willie Mays
As great as that would be I don't see it happening. Those just aren't the type of guys they throw into packs. They will either be program, Collection, or WS/BR

between 92-95 mph
How fast was Bob Gibson's Fastball? Bob Gibson's 4-seam fastball “sat” between 92-95 mph in the sample I considered. It's likely he actively varied his grip or intended velocity, producing a high velocity range, measured at 87-95, with numerous indications that he regularly exceeded 95 mphHe was responsible for getting the mound lowered after the 1968 season when his ERA was 1.12 though

Price drop on Edmonds will occur when Set 49 packs start getting thrown around like candy.

If these are the base round I’m curious to see the rare round
We have to be due for a Rob Dibble diamond…

I’d honestly like to see a 99 Lindor or Adley but I don’t think it fits the theme of these packs. Plus with Rollins just coming out they might not want another switch hitting SS that might be as good or better.

I loved that Signature Lindor last year. Even is FOTF at the beginning of the season was one of my best cards. So far they're all legends but I don't see why they can't have flashbacks.

His swing is so good. I hit more home runs with him than any other SS by a long shot. Plus his defense is pretty much maxed out besides the arm.

@Dolenz_MLBTS the Cardinals outfield just got a lot more fun. Glad to see Lou get a 99 this year.

Ready for a Friday crash

I like where your head is at. I've got a handful of cards I'm waiting to go down a bit before I buy.

I can't even be disappointed at getting the base round when the choices are this good.
But hopefully the rare round has one of the OG legends -- Foxx, Big Train, Lefty Grove, Honus, Mathewson, Feller, or Babe.

I’d be cool with any of those except Matthewson . They can keep him. The others I’m all for it.
