Moonshot 2.0 Reveals
-
I actually cursed when Ashley said Cardinal fans because I was sure they were locking Stan away behind a collection. We still need an updated Stan (inning boss) and Lou Brock.

@Dolenz_PSN Wait until this moonshot pack hits the deluxe etc. … Then prices will come down. Your Ozzie is my Rickey and I will not overspend one of my 2.6M stubs

I only have 400K although I could sell a bunch.
I am assuming at least half of that is needed for Gibson.

The difference is your Rickey will still steal like Rickey on the basepaths. The Ozzie will not field like Ozzie.
This after already giving Ozzie a sub 90 defense card
They [censored] on The Wizard, and even as a non Cardinals fan I can't approve of that

The debate was about getting him …
And: It is pretty clear that those Moonshot cards do things different than their usual cards

You can keep running the new mini season for old moonshot packs at least, it will get you most of the way

But the problem is Ozzie never got a "usual" card this year. He has gotten two cards with under 90 fielding on both.
In fact his 99 card has even lower fielding than his 89 card did.

@Dolenz_PSN I just looked up Ozzie … Sorry, that is the most usable Ozzie we ever had … If he could need something, it would be speed …This card plays and I am really looking forward putting him on my Cardinals end-game-theme-team-cycle squad (I do all teams starting around xmas).
If I were you and I would really need him rn, I would simply get him. If not: this Weatherholt will do too

Why upgrade the ARM and REACTION from his 89 Overall card pretty significantly but then lower the fielding to even lower than his 89 overall card?
Funny, they didn't feel the need to nerf Henderson's speed to justify his moonshot card.

Action Hero Ozzie > Moonshot Ozzie. 99/99 speed and 99 defense are by a huge margin more important to me on an Ozzie card than just another HR hitter
-
@Dolenz_PSN Yes, they lowered Ozzie‘s primary strength to justify his power … you could compare a lot but maybe you should stick with Ozzie.
If you get him, you will probably P5 him … Then he is a diamond fielder. I would rather take a diamond Ozzie as a Cards fan with 100+ power (which makes him a goat-like-hitter) than have a fielding wizard with the power he deserves if that would not be a Moonshot-card … In other words: I really do not get the outrage … at all … This card is end-game, especially for a Cardinals fan -

Why do some players have to sacrifice things for the power, and not others? This isnt a zero sum thing, there is no cap on a 99 card.
Its OZZIE SMITH. He is arguably the greatest defensive player in the history of the game. For his 99 he gets a 99 in FLD and then you design the card from there, otherwise you failed in basic design.
What next, we gave Babe Ruth's 99 a 95 in power but give him 85 speed and a 99 drag bunt?
