    Nope. They are right.

    By your definition Adam Dunn would be a flashback, yet his cards are eligible for Legends and Live series mini season.

    And... I think Robin Yount belongs to a special class due to his sweet mustache. That reference is specifically for @SchnauzerFace_MLBTS . I miss him terribly on the Forum.

    Yount has a face that launched 1000 ships in the opposite direction. He's the poor man's Sandra Bernhard and I love that ugly mug so much

    Legends are also retired baseball players no longer actively playing in MLB.

    It's a little more than that. For example, Josh Donaldson is a retired baseball player. However, for The Show purposes, he is not considered a Legend.

    HIs current LS fits the "Captian Card" (Jackie Robinson) boost. I'm 99% sure no one cares...

    He still has a live series card in the game therefore he is not a legend.

    I've mentioned this before. The date a player announces his retirement makes a difference in this game.

    If you announce at the end of the season you will not be in next years game. If you announce in spring you will be in the game as a free agent.

    Wainwright retired in Oct = No longer in the game.
    Donaldson retired in March = Still in the game.

    I don't know what the actual cutoff date is though.

    Yup, exactly. Votto just announced, his cards are still flashbacks.

    A way to think about that may help is how SDS acquired the player rights. If they are in the game as part of the MLBPA agreement all non LS cards are flashbacks, if they had to get the rights directly for that player, than Legend.
