Shouldn't the lighting card always be who wins Player of the Month unless he already got a 99 previously.

Its kind of crazy that Kurtz is hitting .360 this month after his monster July.
I remember last year everyone was going apeshit over Merrill, demanding more cards and complaining constantly he wasnt a diamond
Now a guy is having a better year and people are saying too many cards and no one cares he is only an 80. Kurtz WAR in mid August is now better than Merrill's 2025 total WAR -
Tyler Soderstom?

Never has been. It happens once in a while but not always. I would say it is more likely to happen now though since we are at 99s overall.
A few years back, before sets and seasons Judge, Arrenado and Goldschmidt won half the POTM awards MLB gave out that year. None of them got a lightning.

His ColorStorm card was pretty good! -
For retro August lightning I’m hoping for a new retro Giants card… maybe August 1991 Will Clark (.347/.408/.678, 7 HR, 28 RBI) or August 1998 Jeff Kent (.355/.422/.691, 11 HR, 32 RBI)

I hope it is Mookie’s August 2022 lightning card

Hahaha sorry but you never know. All it takes is a guy to have a 2 hit game or make some crazy catch to get a special card lol.
