9/27/24 'Career Tribute' Program
-
Any guesses?
I'm hoping it's Darryl Strawberry, but I have no clue who would warrant a program right now. -
I can almost guarantee that it won't be him.
-
@TheGoaler_MLBTS Well, the day it comes out is the same day McGwire hit his 70th HR. They already did the same kind of thing with Gwynn’s program.
-
From a purely baseball standpoint Votto makes the most sense as he is a retiring Hall of Famer.
Yes, he has a great season 2 card (that most people probably dont have), but its the right thing to do to give him a program regardless.
One way or another mcgwire will get a 99 before the year is out. The date lines up, but its also a Friday so its probably just a coincidence. Could just as well be a random guy like Piazza who still should hopefully be getting a 99 Dodger and a 99 met at some point. Or maybe another Kris Bryant, you never know with SDS
-
Even as a Cardinal fan who would like a 99 McGwire card I still am leaning towards Votto. He won't be in the game after this year for at least several years if not much longer. Last year's Career Tribute was program was Wainwright and Miguel Cabrera.
I am not sure if there are any other high profile players who have already definitively stated that they are hanging it up after this season.

Joe Random
Who was the player you got when you 'paralled' Joe Random a few years back?
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS Could be Votto and Strasburg program. He’s another recent retirement that’s still in the game.
-
@GoozeFn_PSN I'd love it to be a double player program but have they ever done that? I don't for see it happening especially with Strasburg.
-
@buggstbone84_PSN They’ve absolutely done programs with multiple players, but nothing like that I can think of. I don’t remember exactly what the Pujols program looked like.
-
1973 - The California Angels beat the Minnesota Twins 5-4 in 11 innings, as Nolan Ryan struck out sixteen, including No. 383 of the season, a modern Major League record.

Last year's was a multi player program with 99 Cabrera and 99 Wainwright in the same program. Here is the Blog Post and cards in last years program.

Hope they do something similar,I'm still over 50 away from the first collect boss(not counting Fridays stuff)and something like this would go a long way towards it.

I’m only at 80 cards offline but won’t lock in until they add additional rewards
-
Josh Donaldson might be a possibility as well, though he’s not the most popular personality out there, certainly.

I wouldn't mind something similar to last years but at least make the packs a guaranteed diamond instead of a chance at a diamond because I remember pulling all golds out of those packs
-
@Blujfan1992_XBL Please let it be him.
I LOVED his card last year and I'm a huge fan of him as a person. -

That program had effectively 16 cards as the packs were easy to farm
Thats 3 months of 'other' programs in 2024 (and no, Im not counting Topps Now/SA because that replaced and reduced weekly content last year outside of programs)

the Jays fan in me hopes there's a Signature Series Jose Bautista...but I don't think he allows his likeness to be used anymore. Perhaps a Joey Votto, Albert Pujols etc.

Won't be Bautista or Pujols. They would not have waited this long to introduce new Legends into the game.

25 Years since the last game at Tiger Stadium. How about a tribute to the Tigers that played there and a release of a playable Tiger Stadium!
