Just resign yourself to the fact now that Duran will be the Collect reward...
-
No jays either. Probably can't put Bieber in there. But 1 of the relievers or a Ty France would be nice.
-
@Dolenz_PSN #1 Fan is a completely optional cosmetic goal. The program is basically over after the Finest card. The rest is just a fun target to shoot for with your favorite team.
-
Conquest is a nice touch. Waiting for all the people to complain that 'these cards wont make my god squad'

And I would argue it was over after All Star. The only post all star reward I think is a deluxe pack, which is 5k stubs basically. Not nothing, but they put almost all the rewards in the pre all star.
And grinding specifically for cards that are still 3 months away seems pointless, because at least half of them Ill get naturally anyway.
-
@Dolenz_PSN Finally some Padres. I will stop whining for a bit.
-
And here are the cards people really want the most
Of course in a pack -
Of course they're in a pack but since I don't have to worry about LS anymore I'll take it
-
I've lost track. Is that at least 4 new Yankees today?
-
And of course there is a Collection. Look at all of those pack cards you get to buy!
-
Mets theme team can field a proper bullpen finally
I wish we could get away from the nonsense of 'hey these guys are barely above replacement level, but since they are popular with good swings they get the best cards'

How does DeVries get a 99? I finally did the Spring Breakout 2 more times to get his SB card!
No offense to him, but a 99 is a bit much. -

There are more questionable 99s in the program (and some are even collections)
-
I know its only 1 point and doesnt matter for relievers, but its just absolutely absurd that Soto is a 98 and Rogers is a 97. He better have Dennis Eckersley levels of control/BB9
-
It looks like no new mini season, we are over due for one.
I hope (but doubt) the conquest is at least repeatable for packs or else this will be one of those drops with a lot of cards, but one lap through the conquest and you are done until they release more packs

No offense to him, but a 99 is a bit much.No different than Skenes getting the 99 Pipeline last year.

Lol. I'm playing the Twins during the draft map. They bring in a reliever at 58 OVR named Jarret Whorff 🤪
'Whorff The Forff' happened to their team???
To quote DLR in the song 'Just a gigolo:' 'I ain't got nobody!!' -

Overall not bad
Looks like there is content for next Friday, which I wasnt expecting (finally a mini season)
3 Deluxe packs between program and conquest
Spotlight has a bunch of April packs, will help people with collectionsMy main criticism is that I can understand keeping 2.0 packs rare, but there really should be an ultra pack or two for the original new threads
Funny enough I was 1 card shy of Santander trying to complete the original program naturally. That wont be an issue anymore and Ill now have Rolen
