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 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.
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
They lowered it from 15 inches down to 10 inches. They also changed the strike zone. They are unofficially called the Gibson Rules. I heard there was some talk of lowering or moving the mound back again.

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.
Lindor would still be cool. I don’t see any need for Adley, especially with the crazy Posada card. I haven’t tried the Pudge card yet, but I heard they fixed him. I wonder if it’s true; he was the best catcher of his time. One of the best all-time. Speaking of great catchers, I would like to see Thurman Munson in the game. Though I don’t know what his attributes would be since his career was tragically cut short from the plane crash while he was still in his prime.

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.
I understand that Finest cards will be coming out, but it’s not like every active player is getting one. So I definitely agree.

IT'S HONUS!
-
Rare round
MS Honus
MS Seaver
Finest Eddie Matthew's
Finest Joe Torre -
It's a No Hitter Tom Seaver. Should have high H/9.
Looking forward to that Honus and Eddie Matthews.
-
Eddie Mathews always rips every year

Finest Joe TorreI was pretty underwhelmed by everyone but Honus at first but on second thought. I think these will be pretty good.
-
That Wagner card art is very nice! Looking forward to adding him to the lineup today. Yount is just going to have to deal with it.

These cards look good. I love Honus and Eddie. Tom Seaver should be good too. The only thing that worries me is he only struck out 3 hitters in that game.
-
Base round is better than the rare round IMO
-
Please, please, please... Have Honus's follow though on his card art translate to the actual animation
-
1st at bat with Honus. He’s got a little power. Lol
-
1 pack purchase, 1 Honus
-
Me too….Honus. Debating to sell right now or not.
-
The base round just doubled in price as soon as they went out of the pack store.

I love Honus’ card every year. They should have given him 95 fielding so he can stay diamond as all those secondary positions. I guess that is what parallels are for.
-
No reason to buy the packs. I’ll just buy who I want seeing as all 3 guys I want are in the base round
