Cover Athletes

I hope they have cover athlete cards for everyone who has been on the cover including the international and deluxe versions.
At the moment, if they retain all the rights from last year’s cover players, they are only missing puig and Pedroia (who they have had rights to before) from the main US covers.
They have all three of the special edition covers (ohtani, Jackie, jeter). Thinking these could be like a low diamond since they are special edition.
For the Canadian cover, josh Donaldson, Aaron Sanchez, and stroman are all current players. Bautista, lawrie, and Martin are retired.
Missing the rights to the Korean and Taiwanese covers.

It was very cool for last year because they finally had the bulk of the cover athletes under contract with Mauer and Howard joining the game, but I'm not sure they need to bring it back for the new one just because they got one additional name in David Wright.
Very happy that all of these players are once again in the game though.
