Finders Keepers #4
-
To say this is disappointing would be an understatement. 2 weeks for another Finders Keeper card and it's Keith Hernandez? I hope FK #5 is better than this (please release a Retro Finest Robinson Cano).
-
As a lefty first baseman myself irl, even I disapprove of a Keith card🤪
-
Need to get Roger McDowell’s rights so they can put them in a pack together.

I’m hoping one of these will be a Dodgers version of Jackie Robinson.

Why? He will have very good contacts for sure and power over 100. That makes him a very good card, at least for some theme teams
The other is Tim Salmon … he should be better, but he will not be better than Acuna e.g.. But what do you expect? Another better Mays?
I like both

Keith Hernandez and Tim Salmon don't shout "Come back and spend your Stubs", at least to me.
What could we expect? Well for Example
Lou Gehrig has 3 cards and his 99 was a Charisma Card from Set 1
Babe Ruth's 99 is a Set 1 collection reward, and while it would be hard to give a better card than that it would be nice to have a 99 version that I could buy on the marketplace. His best purchasable card is a 97
Call me old fashioned but I would have less issues with Hall Of Fame legends getting multiple 99's before a guy like Schwarber.
-
SDS had already announced the final collection date 3 weeks in advance. I'm not really surprised to see a couple cards that don't really get anyone excited.
-
99 overall RF is Finders Keepers #5? Al Kaline, first ballot HoFer, finally getting his due!
Oh, it's Tim Salmon. That guy who played for the Angels and was mostly irrelevant otherwise.
Yay.

I was a Lefty 1b in real life, too

I've always struggled with Keith's cards. I remember several Moments where you had to get XBH's (or maybe HR's) and they were nearly impossible for me.
-
I think a lot of people have struggled with Hernandez.
-
Keith Hernandez is always one of the worst cards for me.
Even if they max this guy out, I still won't be able to hit with him.Tim Salmon is kind of interesting though. I recall liking his snapshot series card.
-
These are just collection fodder.

Ok, I am with you with Gehrig (who is not that great), but Ruth? What else should he have besides a Pitcher secondary? The same as a buyable would be weak af…
To me it has nothing to do with old-school … The fired up everything they had. We had 99 Ruth in April, 99 Mantle in May and two 99 Griffeys until summer.If they published another one of those, that would be worse than not bringing out anything (imo at least).
But, be realistic. They are not earning lots of money on people buying stub in 23. If they have arrows left, they will put them in 24 …

I struggle with everyone … I will only use him if I do a Mets theme team again (I won‘t because I sold off Nimmo :)) … but I am not raging over him. I think he is „nice“
-
okay, Keith has 89-80 Power but max-out Contacts … He is worthess besides a Mets theme team
-
I am hoping future Finders Keepers card is a Lefty Grove. I love his cards and for some reason pitch really well with him. It would be a shame to not have single 99 card of his when we have players with 3 different 99s
-
If you don't like Keith Hernandez stay far away from me.
-
Is the Hernandez card guaranteed?
I 'met' him at a Mets Clubhouse shop 15 or more years ago. He's great on TV with Gary and Ron, and was a defensive general on the field, for those who don't know.

Yes. If you buy the packs in the Show Shop; you're guaranteed each player, from their pack, but they're non-sellable.
