Which All Star cards are you looking forward to using?
-
Altuve, since they totally discredited his LS and keep dropping him despite the fact he has been ripping. Astros havent had too many bright spots this year so far.

For me its Christian Walker and Brandon Nimmo
As Mets fans we will be getting two Alonso cards instead of a card which could be fun in Nimmo or Lindor

You know who you have to blame for that?
Pete Alonso.
He said he would not participate in the HR derby unless he made the all-star team. So MLB, desperate to get somebody notable in the HR derby after multiple big names declined, caved and added him. He could have chosen to participate in the HR derby without being part of the team, which would have given one of his Mets teammates a chance to make the team.

Honestly if this is true the mets should trade him asap. That cant be good for the clubhouse

@Teak2112_MLBTS who would want him
-
It depends on the pitching captain who will upgrade all ASG/HRD/All-Star cards that coincide with the hitting captain. I think they will do something to boost these cards even more.
-
Yeah, but well within his rights. Who wants to fly to a All-Star game to be in yet another HRD, but not be an All-Star? I would rather spend time with friends and family in that case too.
-
If they want to 'make things right' they'll put Skenes in as a card that you can earn via the program.
And I mean like a final program card like the Egg Hunt Yelich.
Not as part of the collection or part of BR/Events.

Because a million dollar prize for winning is not incentive enough?
But yes, he is within his rights.
