Finest of the Franchise program announcements
-
Cardinals is Nolan Arenado - this card is going to crush. I think Goldschmidt will be part of the Finest collection.
-
Arenado will be my end game 3rd baseman and then ill need a Goldy to round out my all time cards team. i am trying to have all my Cards team P5 but for some reason i can not hit with that new Pujols at all

I hope it’s not Nate Lowe for the Rangers. That’s the same finest from 21. I think the choices are limited. Lol
It's probably going to be Adolis or Semien, they were the only ones not to get juiced cards this year. With Lowe, like you said, he won it last year. Semien's 95 is extremely outdated and no one uses him anymore, Adolis doesn't have anything over an LS I believe. Brock Burke or Matt Moore out of the bullpen would be nice too.
Maybe Garcia. I hope anyway. I have cole Calhoun monthly award playing center for my Rangers theme team. Lol
Oh, of the one good month he had. Forgot about that.

I never hit well with him but you can bet this card is at least getting some play time.
My only dilemma is how do I reset my Cardinals lineup. I have Pujols at 3B and All Star Goldy at 1B. I guess I can move Pujols to 1B and Arenado at 3B.
Since I play CPU only I could try Arenado at SS over Ozzie (but I am a huge Ozzie fan) or at 2B over Gorman (who as a lefty gives me some balance in the lineup and who I have hit really well with).

for me i dont have that dilemma becasue of not hitting with pujols but just move that 98 edman to 2nd for gorman and then my line up would be
Brock Lf
Goldy 1b
Musial Rf
Arenado 3b
Edmonds Cf
Edman 2B
Yadi C
Ozzie ssbench would be
Pujols
Gorman
Bader
Wynn ( P5)
Nootbaar / Heyward/Arozarena -

Nootbaar / Heyward/ArozarenaI can't bench Pujols. He hits more HRs than anyone else on the team.
Also , I only do players with actual Cardinal cards so no Bader or Arozarena.
My current lineup is
SS Smith
RF Musial (still need the 99 version)
3B Pujols
CF Edmonds
1B Goldy
2B Gorman
C Molina
LF BrockBench
Edman, Yepez, Nootbar, Walker, WinnSince I only play offline and since Arenado should have excellent defense I could probably play him out of position at SS or 2B. Gorman has been nothing but great for me but he would most likely be the one replaced.

I’m happy for Cards fans that Arenado got a Finest card but I doubt I’ll use him much. Ive never liked his swing. I will definitely give him a chance regardless. Maybe they change his swing up slightly this time around. They do that pretty often.

Oh man. Watch for the toe tap and just work on the timing. Once you get it down he is the destroyer of worlds.
Man, the hype team for this program is really taking their time. We still have 25 cards not announced, plus the 4 event Finest cards and the 4 collection cards. This is like a sloooooow drip.

All part of the final livestream, going to be a packed 30 minutes.
Felix Bautista was just announced as 1 of the franchise event rewards at 20 wins. Looks like the other 3 will be 2 batters (First at 15 wins and another at 25 Wins) and another pitcher (at 30 wins)
