Lightning cards?
-
@Dolenz_PSN Yeah, I guess that might push the 3rd inning bosses to 95’s. Maybe 94 is right for the bosses and lightning. The 3rd inning bosses last year were the same as lightning 92.
-
I’m assuming city scapes is smt to do with skylines as card arts
-
@GoozeFn_PSN I think you can eliminate everyone you mentioned but Stargell cause I’m pretty sure none of the Jolt guys will get second diamonds this soon - and I don’t even think we’re getting Hank Aaron cards at all cause they put him in the NGL series this year
-
We have no idea what this cityscapes thing is so your guess is as good as mine.
-
@On_a_Power_Trip_PSN Good points. Back to the drawing board.
-
I would expect the cards to have a similar art style to the image they posted earlier.
-
@SaveFarris_PSN I don’t remember that at all. What was it?
-
@On_a_Power_Trip_PSN Big Mac 98, but he recently got a headliner. Pujols 06, not likely. Tony Gwynn in 84 is interesting… Joe Morgan 75. McCovey 63.
-
@GoozeFn_PSN that’s a second possibility: Stargell and Gwynn, who isn’t actually back in DD yet - not sure whether he’s on the offline legends roster (also no, we’re not getting a sub-99 Pujols, Felix or Tulo all year)
-
@On_a_Power_Trip_PSN yeah besides the golds we didn’t get another Roger Beltran or Gil last year if my memory serves me right minus now and later.
-
Realistically is probably gonna be somebody who’s had a above average not elite April but somebody who will be a card people will wanna drop some dough on.
-
@Onix_Savage22_PSN we did! Roger had a 64 overall common in Moonshot 2.0, and Gil’s other launch day card was actually a 79 overall silver (Veteran series, Mets’ TA program). Beltrán, now that I think of it, might’ve been the only one of them who actually did have a gold (an 83 overall Cardinals All-Star, also a TA reward)
-
@On_a_Power_Trip_PSN I know they had other cards sorry I should have worded it better I meant useable nobody was using a 64 Roger or 78 Hodges.
-
@Onix_Savage22_PSN ah gotcha - at least they gave the right guy of the three the gold
-
@On_a_Power_Trip_PSN yeah that’s my bad I more aless meant other diamonds like 85 plus I should have worded it better.
-
I mean overalls don’t really matter. Just how good the cards play. People get too fixated on if it’s going to be a 93 or 94 etc when the stats are really negligible.
-
We have no idea what this cityscapes thing is so your guess is as good as mine.
I dread the tall strike zone on the ESB it better have a quick swing to make up for it, though good news is reunion tower sounds like it will be a switch hitter
Space needle will definitely have massive power. -
I've been calling for slower power creep for years, and it only ever gets faster. No hope of that changing.
-
Be rice will be the lightning player, retro is anyone’s guess
-
Ben Rice
Why? He has had an excellent month but he is not, or should not be the lock that you think he is. Will he get a card? Probably but it should not be the Lightning.
Yordan Alvarez was
1st in AVG
3rd in HR
Tied for 3rd in RBIS
1st in OBP
1st in wRC+
1st in WARHe beats Rice in every one of those categories
The Yankees have 26 legends and Flashbacks to Houston's 10
The Yankees have 9 cards with an OVR of 90 or above to Houston' s 4If Houston gets robbed of the Lightning card, assuming it is a position player, then it will be a travesty. I don't even really like Houston but it is hard to deny Yordan's month.
