Moonshot 2.0 Reveals

This ozzie card is the best ozzie card we have gotten. You do realize that 90 defence plays the same as 99 right? Lol, and he can get to 90 speed. I'd much rather have 90 fielding and 90 speed with amazing hitting instead of bad hitting and 99 defence/speed.

I don't think Ive ever seen a bad hitting 99 Ozzie.
And all you people who only want a switch hitting babe ruth at every position are just proving the point: if you dont care about steal rating or defense rating, then why was it removed?
-
Nobody said, defense/steal/speed does not matter.
-
Never said defense doesn't matter, it definitely does. But a 90 plays the same as a 99 so the fact we got a great hitting ozzie with 90 defence is great. I dont understand why you'd want a 99 defence with weak power stats.

Why isnt it both?
Bryan Reynolds, a below average fielder at best, just got a card with 91 FLD. He also got 120/125/125 Contact, which is far, far better than he would ever deserve. His power? Nope, thats high too! He was juiced in pretty much every way and did not have to make any sacrifices
So why does fellow collection reward Ozzie Smith need to have some sacrifices on his card in areas that DEFINE WHO OZZIE SMITH IS.
And if for some reason we dont want to make a collection card too juiced, why does it have to be 125 power vs L? Wouldnt a 100/115 split but with proper Ozzie defense and baserunning still be "the best Ozzie Smith ever" for people that really only care about stats on the card and not the player on it?
But again, the real issue is that there wasnt a 95ish Ozzie with 95+ defensives, 90+ steal/speed and 100ish contact.
-
I dont understand your argument.... 100ish contact vs the 115 & 125 he has is a much bigger deal than 90 vs 99 for defense. The defense will play the same but the higher contact will allow him to be used online on higher difficulties.

Because the moonshot theme defines what card he is … Don‘t you remember the Lou Brock outrage?
You do not realize how much you are discrediting this amazing Ozzie-card (the best card in the moonshot content drop) we had in the last 5 years.
I leave it at that, I promise that
-
Everybody is (intentionally?) missing the crux of the issue: there was ZERO reason to nerf the defense and steal. 98s and below are zero sum games where they need to balance. 99s are not.

I found this interesting
In the years 2021 - 2024 Ozzie received 10 Cards
9 of those 10 have 99 fielding. Only his Rookie version did not have 99 fielding. It had 87
This year we have gotten 2 Ozzie Smith cards with 87 and 85 fielding

Yes. But one is a low Doamond and the other is a "make believe" card that represents hitting bombs.
How many homeruns has Ozzie hit in his career?
