Have to assume with this many new Legends and cards overall, there is going to be a separate collection for this series. Curious who the final program reward would be if they go that route.
There is an easy way to determine this: look for switch hitters. Welcome to MLB: The Switch Hitters
Zobrist and Reyes will be the rare insert and collection rewards if they are included

Showdown reward

The card art makes me think these guys are all Mets at a quick glance
-
Michael Cuddyer should be in a Twins uniform not the Mets
-
@Rubbaneck34_XBL It's the team he's representing at the HRDX.

That's not how it works. He competed in the HRD X competition as a Met so he is a Met. I doubt SDS can even give him a Twins card based on the HRD X rights
-
Zobrist and Cain are the collection rewards.
-
So that would leave for the pack. Right?
Nick Swisher
Adrian Gomez
Johnny Gomes
Jeff Francour
Hunter Pence
Ryan Klesko
Ian Desmond
Josh Reddick
Ryan Zimmerman
Rick Ankiel -
I haven't seen anything yet for who's in the pack

They have told us who is
Part of The Program
The Showdown Reward
The Collection RewardsThat combined with the names released in the video yesterday gives us a very good idea unless there are rewards in another game mode.

OMG... Gordo will be my new LF. these aren't by chance Captain cards?
-
This is a great thing overall
I cant help but be a little disappointed in the pack though. Since this is a choice pack they likely wont be adding this to the deluxe pack for a while, if ever (I know Prime is there, but signature is not unless its been added recently)
Given this is the only card a lot of these players will receive it would be nice to have a better farmable option
I was hoping they would have given a repeatable conquest for this, but eh, might as well try to make a little extra at the end of the year and i can't fault them for that. While getting the rights for these was probably free, there was still effort getting them into the game.

I did directional and up, and most of the time was so far in front of it that I was hitting it with the back swing.
Got 5 solos to beat the first, gshr,solo hr,single sb RBI single 2rhr to beat the second, sac fly , ugh I forget the rest but I was between 60-80 pitches on all 3 vs Ramone, then going from 80- 95+ against arrieta wasn't fun ,switched back to zone for that and it wasn't too bad,couple batters and I was starting to catch back up to the velo.
Edit: approach Ramone like he's throwing curveballs. -
@PAinPA_PSN directional pointing up worked, finally got past the 1st mini boss but I'm taking a break til tomorrow when I can concentrate better but thanks for your help
