Great List.
The truth with the list is that many people have already been in the game and then were removed. Sometimes SDS nails it, then because people aren't playing with the guy 24/7, they dump them.
Just a small list off the top of my head that is very similar would include:
Rogers Hornsby
Jay Buhner
Will Clark <- A Must
Kevin Mitchell
Matt Williams
Ty Cobb
Kirby Puckett
Dwight Gooden
Sandy Koufax
Dave Winfield
Ichiro
Barry Bonds (One Can Dream)
Jack Morris
Carlton Fisk
Alex RodriguezThe truth is that most of my desired players have already been in the game before... Need to definitely keep the legends and players we remember
100%
Just looking at your list, a good amount of those names were just in the game a few years ago to the point where it feels almost cheap having them brought back under the "NEW LEGEND" banner. Even with superstars like Pujols and Felix coming back into The Show this year, it's hard to be overly excited since we just had them both in the game about three years ago.

I still think they should do "local legends" players. They could get rights cheaper and fans of those teams would love it. Guys that weren't HOF nationally but fans love them. I was thinking Mickey Lolich, Gates Brown, Willie Horton, Bobby Higginson, Bill Freehan, guys like that for the Tigers. I'm sure other people could name some from their teams.

I have always wondered if SDS looks or even cares about the fanbase’s wishlist for legends.
I would assume so. Last year they let go of an inner circle hall of famer, considered pretty much universally the top player at his position. I don't think they would have done that if people mostly didn't like using him
im confused. They let go of a hall of famer? If they let go of someone everybody uses, that means they don’t care.
Who are we talking about? Schmidt?
Yes. He and Ricky were by far the top players of their generation. They should never have dropped him, but people dislike his swing so...

Been waiting over a decade for my childhood favorite player: Carl Yastrzemski "The man they call YAZ!

I really wish they could flesh out the mid-level Legends list more as well.
Yeah, I'd love Joe DiMaggio, but I'd probably rather prefer a combo of Scott Brosius/Jeff Nelson/Jim Leyritz over him just because more obscure Legends are more important to me than one headliner at this point in the franchise granted they don't keep removing big names.

When the dropped Schmidt they added Rolen and Allen,if Bohm didn't get hurt and had another good year that would have been 4 phillies 3Bman competing for playing time, think that's why Kruk only lasted a year, cause you had Howard Thome with Harper and Hoskins flashbacks for 1B.
I think that's why we lose guys when we gain new ones, not just the money aspect of it, but space,can only have so many competing for the same spots. -
@PAinPA_PSN tell that to teams like the rays who can barely fill out a theme team at the end of the year.

I never said it was a good system,and I never said that I liked it, that is just what I think happens.
-
@PAinPA_PSN I didn’t say you were wrong. I’m just griefing for the teams that get no love in this game.

I agree with you that it is unfair and unbalanced,but if you look back through mlb history it always has been. I don't like that either
-
@PAinPA_PSN Sure, but just because teams have been unbalanced for 100+ years doesn’t mean there aren’t enough potential legends to give every team enough to make every fan base happy. Obviously every team can’t be loaded with stars, but there are tons of legends that would be meaningful to the fans of those teams and they’d likely be cheaper than many of these stars.
-
With the player vault, we can have all of them! Unfortunately, just in Franchise though, and not within the excitement of DD. Two different worlds of fun imagination, but would be great to have them all in both modes!
