TA Season 3 Pt. 2
-
I'll admit with jumping back into MLB the last week or so, I'm actually looking forward to this drop. Chip away at the numerous programs and conquest maps I have.

I don't know how to post pics but the NL West was revealed.
Feel like it'll likely be a relatively modern player and not a Stan or mantle aged guy
Maybe a 99 trout here?
-
@ref479ode_PSN Yeah, when we do get Stan or Mantle, I want the HOF card.
-
I want a HOF Mantle, and I would imagine it’s gonna be a card you have to pay for. Acuna, Kershaw, Verlander, and Trout could get RETRO finest. Really dumbfounded by some of these choices….
McGwire, Palmiero, Utley I think are the home runs. Other ones are all very odd. Piazza, Peavy, Luis Gonzalez, Andy Petitte, Madison Bumgartner are some players that come to mind that WOULD have been better choices. -

Mickey Mantle HOF card for free! This is a huge W!!!! Can’t wait!
-
I'm likely the only person most excited for Pedro.
-
Nope me too, love the Pedro card

My guess is that he will be a XP path rewards (my preference)
Bingo! Stan better be first in line...

Thanks for posting the pictures this morning. I was busy and not keeping up.

Off the top of my head those are the two biggest names without a 99 yet. Shoot Musial doesn't even have a 90+ card at all. Mantle only has a 91
I could see those two and maybe Cy Young (who also does not have a 99) being Season 4 XP path boss rewards.
Nice to see that I can occasionally make good guesses. I just chose the wrong pitcher and we got them a little earlier than I expected.

Today's your day. Go buy a lottery ticket!
We didn't get Cy Young himself for the third choice, but we did get a 3x Cy Young Award winner, so that's gotta count for something.
Also, Daulton Varsho for the D-backs is awesome as long as he has a C secondary. Left-handed catcher with a great swing, strong defense and near-elite speed? Hard to beat that.

Except Cal Raleigh is a switch hitter and is literally one of my Top 3 hitters. So for me I unfortunately have no use for Varsho. He does have a great swing though.

At this stage, everybody already has a stacked lineup without any real holes. And there's no way they can put out 30 cards that will appeal to 100% of the users. I have had a lot of fun with Josh Gibson, Jorge Posada, and the S1 TN Shea Langeliers, so I don't really need Varsho, but he'll be fun to play with whilst grinding out TA3 stats. In fact, none of the previewed cards (including Mantle, Musial, Pedro, Bellinger, etc.) are going to make my team "better." They'll just make my team different, which is all we can really hope for in October.

@MarioMendoza935_XBL They should put it in a pack, so we can make that decision. That’s the right thing to do, so you know it won’t be.

For me I think Bellinger and Pedro will make my team better. I love that Bellinger is one of the only players with 90+ arm strength that can play 1B (fits Cruz Captain boost).

I'll be interested to see the stats. Musial should have higher contact numbers than Mantle. Mantle should have higher Power numbers along with speed and defense.
I did notice that based on their real life 162 games averages that Musial had a higher SLG% due to him hitting more doubles and triples per 162 games. That surprised me given Mantles power and speed.
