Kinda strange that the announced him as a Phillie and then the release is as a Red. I would expect a better version for both the Phillies and Cardinals later on

Yeah, definitely going to be some better versions coming for sure.

Curious, did SDS announce a collection reward for today or was that just another assumption people were making?

I think they announced it. I also agree that Rolen is a bit disappointing but glad he's not a collection reward. I'll be doing this program to get Cueto personally.
-
It was announced for today at launch because it’s written on the Jolt voucher…
-
Scott Rolen?? I never liked his batting stance. I feel like his swing will be like Jeff Bagwell and I’m not a fan of his cards at all. I hope I’m wrong. One thing is for sure he’ll have a lot of power.
-
Looks to me like he's from the new program, not the collection
-
@Alimathus_PSN I just saw that too.
Edit.i just saw another instagram post that he is the collection.

Can't wait until he gets a 110 overall card for his 2004 Cardinals season when he outperformed his 2000 season by almost every single offensive metric.

So Rolen was the one everyone was talking in the chat.....was this the same chat I saw....and both in a program and collection reward......what exactly have they been eating and drinking.....why either or even both? Totally mind blowing

So a 99 Rolen is the collection reward. First 99 besides the LSCollection… What worries me is it’s a Gold Glove Card. I’m praying they didn’t inflate all his defensive stats to get him to a 99 and leave his hitting stats with much to be desired..
-
Ok, I guess releasing two Rolen's makes sense now that he is a 99. I was thinking it would be a 95 which is why I didn't think there would be two so close in attributes.
Here are the ratings: https://x.com/MLBTheShow/status/1915806178183192747

I am guessing his power number will be a little low for a 99 and of course their favorite thing to do is lower vision.
This was not his best overall offensive season, or even his best Phillies Season. If they plan on releasing one of those years later on then they would need this one to be restrained. If they do release like a 2004 Cardinals version it would not be until after the season, maybe a Retro Finest.
-
At least it’s a 99. Hope his swing is good.
-
Here are his attributes. Much better than I expected and leaves little room for an eventual 99 Cardinals version when he had better stats across the board.
LOL, somebody on Twitter/X called this card "Mid"

Is it an exciting collection reward name wise? No. But hard to argue with a 99 and those stats for the first big collection.

The 87 is a Reds card, the 99 is Phillies. That's why both.
