The issue with this continues to be a very, very stupid one: every iteration of a legendary player card is available in the draft automatically....I'm assuming most players who want Willie Stargell in their fantasy league don't want three Willie Stargells in their fantasy league.</p>
<p dir="auto">I realize that there is a workaround for this by adjusting rosters manually prior to the draft, but that is a slow and tedious pain in the derrière. I've done it before. If you want the best iterations of every legendary player, it takes at least 20-30 minutes of tedious roster adjustments. WHY WOULDN'T THE DEFAULT BE ONE DRAFT-ABLE CARD PER LEGEND?? The crazy cloned legend multiverse can still be an option, but that's the option which should require the tedious roster adjustments, not the other way around.</p>
<p dir="auto">Also, some of the legendary starting pitchers get classified as relievers for no apparent reason. 98 Bob Gibson with 99 Stamina shouldn't be considered a reliever. I realize he pitched in relief a few times at the bookends of his career, but there was never even a single season in which he relieved for the majority of his appearances.</p>
