Monthly Awards Coming
-
According to MLBTS twitter there will be April monthly awards coming. This is excellent.
-
I just saw the announcement on facebook. I'm really curious what it's going to look like. Also, are they coming soon? It seems like a pretty weird announcement with 2 1/2 weeks left in april
-
It could be more "best of" old monthly awards which would be cool or we could see some more of the player tournament cards which would also be cool too!
I'm sure they'll reveal at least a few cards this morning so I guess we'll know soon!

They probably realized that they need more content, especially considering the state of the game.
The point of there being 2 1/2 weeks left in April is moot. There are no games being played so there would not have been POTM awards.
They need content to distract us from the poor gameplay. -
To me this would mean it's coming in today's update which would be cool if it was 5 new diamonds we got today

I have seen 2 new cards in the marketplace. a Postseason Andruw Jones and a breakout Killabrew Where did they come from?

Ranked Season Pennant Race pack.

Oh ok gotcha

I would love to see a mix of 17 and 18 POTM cards that would be perfect to me. Easily could do moments from those years and included more mission. Hopefully they realise these soon and not 2.5 weeks from now

I would like to see them go back to years past. Before they started doing those cards on here. Maybe 2015 or 2016. Or even further back.
But I definitely saw the PotM cards coming back one way or another even without baseball. They are too much of a money grab not to.

I would be down for 2015 and 2016 POTM that would be a cool move. You would lose Guys like Joey Bats and Beltre but I'm sure there still enough guys to make it work

I would like to see some historic performances from years back.
-
Well, we know we won't get Lightning Thames, but if they go for a classic route, we can see some of the following
1912 Walter Johnson
1970 Tony Perez
1971 Vida Blue (Though we just got a 93 for him)
1971 Willie Stargell
1973 Gaylord Perry (His rights seem to be gone tbh)
1974 Phillies legend Fergie Jenkins
1997 Ken Griffey Jr
1998 Dante Bichette
2001 Luis Gonzalez
2006 Albert Pujols
2012 Matt Kemp
2016 Trevor Story
2017 Bryce Harper
2018 Gerrit Cole
There's obviously other cards that could be in but not be lightning (1982 Rickey), and other great aprils of cards we likely can't have (1997 Larry Walker), but that's a solid list to keep an eye on -
This may be an opportunity to extend Monthly Awards to legends by making cards out of past single-month performances. It'd be a way of making cards that we haven't seen before - for example, a July 1976 Orioles Reggie Jackson.
-
2012 Matt Kemp and 2014 Jose Abreu incoming
-
Jason vargas April 17 - 91 ovr - royals
Ryan Zimmerman april 17 - 91 ovr - nats
Mike leak april 17 - 89 ovr - cardinalsThese are some April rewards from 2017 that I think could be remade for this years game. I cant find the ones from 18 as easily as their online inventory is much harder to navigate
-
I'm willing to bet it will be based upon top performers from the players tournament.
-
A juiced Trevor Story would be insane. I’m still hitting over .350 online with his LS despite his horrible vision.
