Phillies don't have one diamond player but have
-
The most home runs in the month of August in Philadelphia history.
Well done SDS . Great job with the ratings system.
-
Maybe because they recently got hot?
Turner stunk most of the year and seems to be finally looking like himself, and you just had a Set 2 Kajju Schwarber and Utley. -
I was talking about live series. Meant to put in the other section.
-
I’m sure they will get somebody upgraded to diamond soon, assuming they keep this up. In SDS’s defense, no Phillies currently have overly impressive season numbers offensively. I didn’t check out their pitching.

Nola has been disappointing for the most part, has a 4.50 era, but i actually think Turner has the best chance of going diamond, not sure about Harper or Realmuto at this point despite their hot streak. Realmuto is still only batting .250 with 15 home runs and 50 rbi's those are low numbers for him
-
Schwarber is batting under .200 so it doesn’t matter how many homeruns he hits. He’ll never get to be a diamond. Castellanos can’t play defense so forget him being a diamond. Those are the top 2 in overall homeruns. Turner has an OPS+ of 92 on the season. Be lucky he’s still rated gold at this point.

Checks out.

I wish people who complain about ratings would atleast understand how ratings work, but no.

“Live Series ratings should be based exclusively on the last 10 calendar days.” - @FRSTDWN_XBL

I’d imagine Harper and Wheeler get a bump soon. They’re back to playing like the back of their baseball cards. I wouldn’t be shocked if Harper got a POTM card too.
I’m sure every fan base thinks this way but I feel like Philadelphia is consistently underrated in these games. Hurts is only an 88 madden lol

You're right about that. Every body does think that their entire team or some subset of their favorite team is "hated" by SDS.
There is only so much they can do with live series. If Schwarber is going to hit under .200 then his contact is never going to be high enough to be a live series diamond.
But look at the flip side, SDS has given them 13 cards with a 99 overall rating. That is one less than the Yankees and is more than the Dodgers have. It is probably the second most 99s for a team in the whole game.
So you are going to have a hard time convincing me that SDS is undervaluing Philly players.

Teams by 99s and total cards not counting LS
Orioles - 6 - 46
Red Sox - 7 - 52

Guardians - 4 - 36
Tigers - 7 - 39

Rockies - 3 - 34
Dodgers - 12 - 53
Padres - 7 - 41
Giants - 8 - 44 -
So by my count the Phillies are indeed in second behind the Yankees by only 1 player for 99s, now Royal fans they have a legitimate complaint. 1 99 yikes.

There was a guy last year that kept insisting that Chad Green deserved a Diamond Live card after a month and a half of being hot. He didn't and fizzled after that. Ended up he didn't even deserve the gold card he got. Didn't shut up until I pointed out Raisel Iglesias didn't get a Diamond until 3 months without an earned run. Streaks happen. Until they prove it's not a fluke, they'll stay lower. Although I do think Brandon Marsh is always underrated in this game.

Of the Cardinals eight 99 overall players this is the distribution by set
Set 1 - Five 99 Overall Players (Edmonds, Smith, Wainwright, Gibson, Walker)
Set 2 - Two 99 Overall Players (Musial and Nootbar)
Set 3 - One 99 Overall Player (Rosenthal)So you can see the decline as we get deeper into the year.
So the decline of the team based theme teams and the ignoring of teams like the Royals is not a good look. I know people will say that the Royals have not been that good and that is true but let's not pretend that the vast majority of 99 cards are not fantasy ratings anyway. Guys who just got drafted this year got 99 overall cards. Guys like Paul Skenes, who did not make it out of the first inning in his first AA start.

2nd most 99s and all but 2 are flashbacks, Rollins Howard and Schmidt haven't gotten a 99 yet ( and they will) Hamels either( though that's probably an outside chance,but they could).
As for LS, I think they are rated accurately (Marsh could maybe be a silver) Bohm and Stott have been upgraded, the others ....well they weren't good for awhile there and deserved the downgrades. -

27% of them are 99 vs only 22% of the Yankees cards.

Making more 99s. How’s SDS gonna make former players sign over their NIL rights by team played for equally enough to make 99? Or do they just make anyone a 99 to make them all equal?

So by ratio they actually have the most 99s lol. I would like to know the ratio on legend cards that we have gotten conpared to flashbacks, feels like way more flashbacks this year so far. I'll say it again i really want SDS to unleash the legends in set 4
