Set 2 Cornerstone Captains

When exactly do we get the cornerstone Captain pack or do we need to earn it from the season 2 XP path

We don't know.
However, I'd say at least 90% chance its a choice pack given at s2 launch

We will see... you get to use two Captains. What if a Castillo and on of the Captain hitters both boosted live series in some way? We don't know until we see the Captains. Let's say Stanton boosts right handed hitters and Devers boosts lefties. Wouldn't live series cards still be better boosted than the 89's that are being dropped? We just don't know.

@fellspointguy_MLBTS You can probably only use 1 cornerstone at once since we only got 1 in S1 … Looking back at S1, I suppose that an All-TA2-1-squad will be better than a boosted live series. But it is a great starting point. Castillo looks nice, but I suppose Stanton/Devers (who have favourite swings) will have more power-boosts on their side. Many people love that
-
@Dolenz64_XBL Combine it with the Santana Boost and you're gonna have a bunch of Switch Hitting Live Series cards that become Top Notch. Prepare for all the complaint posts cause they're coming.

Carroll's boost
-
So this is the first cornerstone captain boost where a desirable attribute qualifies you as opposed for Buxton and Arenado where the qualification was based on being bad at something
Well we can guess one of the London Series pack rare rounds now: a JT Realmuto with 85 speed
-
Since you can exchange the captains any time you can mix and match , it'll be fun
-
Here is boost for Devers
-
Carroll is my pick without a doubt. I always go with speed guys anyway in my lineup so midway through season 2, i should have a solid team.

To lazy to look on the app and not at home. Who are some of the Diamond/Gold LS players that fit this boost?
Trying to see if a Castillo/Devers combo would work.

I was thinking the same thing but remember you can only use one at a time

I know we can't use more than one from each season but I'm wondering if we can wildcard Arenado/Buxton's S1 card and combine with Castillo S2.

Wait. We can't use a Pitching and a Hitting Cornerstone Captain from the same season; but we can use both from S1 like Carlos and Kershaw?
-
Just saw that the Stanton Cornerstone boost is hitters from the 2000s. Just like Ortiz's boost?
Makes no sense.

Remember how we had to exchange cornerstones whenever we wanted to use a different one in S1? Unless they change that, you couldn't have a Cornerstone hitter and pitcher both at the same time. (EDIT: Added Cornerstone to eliminate confusion because I know you could do regular pitcher/hitter captains both at same time).

It's the 2010 decade while Ortiz was the 2000 decade so similar but affecting a different group of players.

@Dolenz64_XBL
Too bad we don't have a Cano card. He was dominant during that time.Trout, Posey, Cano, Cutch, Votto, Might, Betts etc.... Cargo was good too.... We should get a good Beltre card to work with that Cap.
-
You have 2 active Season 1 captain cards. It was Maddux/Senga and Arenado/Buxton. You get two choices at launch. Our choices for S2 are Stanton/Devers/Castillo/Carroll. People should take a Castillo for sure as he boosts LS and you can't play two hitting captains at once.
-
My money is that a few of those S2 cards in TA will really be awesome with the captains they announced.
