Cards shown early for Friday 5/30
-
Yankees only account for 25% of the cards this week.
-
Washington Nationals also get 25%. So those two teams make up half the drops. However, I like the two National drops as that is the last team for me to do the Color Storm. I was going to knock it out before today's content drop, but I will now wait to add these two guys to the theme team to hopefully knock it out in a single vs CPU game. Thanks for the links.
-
I don't get why we aren't getting more Colorado Rockies cards.
-
There is still a program as well…which will probably have a yankee
-
Sarcasm lol?
-
Dominguez being program top card made sense, but this card? Why is this not a low end lightning program card next week given its a monthly achievement.
Assuming from some of the dates on these cards the week is 21-27
Just from my own team I could suggest Brett Baty's 4 multi hit games that week as a worthy weekly spotlight card. Other teams can do something similar I'm sure. But instead we have the third Yankee in 10 drops

Was playing the Turtle Conquest and faced Gavin Sheets while playing the Padres. Decided the knock out some of the Color Storm Moments and was doing one of the 4 pitching moments for ALC against the White Sox and faced off against...Gavin Sheets. I was like wait a second...And now I've realized the Color Storm moments are probably against 2024 lineups since thats the year they reference in the little bio for the moment...?

The program is Sammy Sosa
-
Just saw that, kinda excited, I didn’t select Sosa in the first inning so it works out

And it looks to be a multi-part program that will release throughout June to unlock the final 95 card. That would be the highest rated program card yet, I believe.

Pirates get 0% as they should

Yes, but you can't get it until June 30th. We will be 3 weeks into the next Inning Program at that point. Next bosses will probably be 94s (maybe 95) and only 2 weeks before getting the All Star cards, which in the past have been in the 97-99 range (but I am kind of thinking that won't be the case this year).
So if he is the highest then he won't be lonely for long
Cubs getting some love this year, behind only the Yankees and Dodgers in number of cards.
-
The Sosa program seems pretty cool. I like that it runs the whole month and will give something to do throughout the month as new moments/missions pop up. Appreciate they are trying something a little different.

Lol.

And another week of 0 Red Sox. We're now close to 100 TN/Spotlight with 0.
I know the team isn't great but I'm pretty sure they are the only team with 0 for this year.
@Dolenz_PSN can double check this.
-
@Dolenz_PSN Surprise surprise, big market preferential treatment, you should expect this yearly Doly boy. lol
Cards have had some decent cards this year, so meh
That 83 Beltran still wont come out of my lineup so I can skip the collection this year if need be.

Only because I was sitting down at my computer and was cooling down after some yard work.
Note: These totals may include flashbacks. I saw no way to filter beyond the card type. Also it may not include all of todays cards (I was too lazy to check)

I do. I am not a newbie.
Yeah, I have no problem with the cardinal cards so far. Of course I knew that the downside of getting so many of our legends early meant that we would have a dry patch until they can justify a new, higher overall version.
Also, I wonder if Donovan's overall might go up a point or two if SDS switched him to 2B instead of LF. He's played 41 games at 2B and 12 in LF
-
The Red Sox have had a number of conflicting cards. Mayer, for example, got a Topps Now card last week but he already has pipeline. Campbell was rookie of the month but he has a card too. Bregman and Devers both have good cards already.
The Mets, on the other hand...only conflicting thing is a gold new threads and the one spotlight they got was lower than it should have been. Any of the five starters could have easily gotten an April Spotlight, Brazoban has been fantastic in the pen, Acuna was rookie of the month in April and of course Brandon Nimmo...
David Peterson must have slept with someone's wife. over the last two years in 30 starts he is 13-5 with a 2.83 ERA, and had a series clinching save in the post season last year. No cards to show for any of it though.
-
@TheDaveyG_NSW Will it be the highest rated card in a month when we can actually get it? This reminds me of the retro lighting cards they did a few years ago. They showed us the card a month before we could get it and it was underwhelming by the time it was attainable. What an awful idea.
