If by chance this new card is considered a captain (which I doubt)
I was curious about that. The captains we have now (Jolt and Color Storm) are limited to boosting cards 95 and below.
When those cards were released, there were no 96+ cards (outside of Beltran, Clemens, Hodges).

@Dolenz_PSN If a third Team Affinity drops and we still don’t have a hitting and pitching captain for each team, why are we even doing captains anymore. They’ve completely failed captains this year. What a joke.
Are they even doing the captains from last year that focused on a certain theme instead of just a regular theme team?
That was my favorite part of '24 so go figure. It looks like they got rid of it.

I still don't really understand this complaint. Aren't the teams with only hitter captains compensated by having a stronger captain? And by also having a choice of which captain to run?
I do think captains in general suck this year, and there should be captains for each series. But the TA captains are way better this year than 2024. 2023's alternating was best, but since they cut the amount of TA cards in general this year captains suffer I guess.

Yes, that is how it is supposed to work. Jim Edmonds boosts should be bigger than a captain for a team that has both a hitting and pitching captain.

@dbub_PSN Me too. The variety was great last year and it made for great lineup diversity. They always seem to ruin the things I have fun doing in this game.
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS Well, maybe I’d like a little power and contact rather than choosing one or the other.

I disagree about lineup diversity. I got so tired of seeing cornerstone teams (and it was usually only 1 or 2 per season), or even worse, Santana teams.

True - I was just wondering what SDS's plan is now that 96 and up cards are entering the mix in bulk.
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS There was definitely more lineup diversity last year. No one is even using captains this year.

@Teak2112_MLBTS 2021 was a lot of fun. You build a divisional team and used them to get progress and each division had a solid henchman and a boss. By this drop we got a few end game cards Trea Turner and Jacob DeGrom come to mind. My favorite thing in this game is creating a squad and building stats
