It’s insane, we want to use these cards before the game is dead, no Lee smith, Gagne, miller, goose, no Gibson , Randy, chipper, vida blue or bob feller. Cool papa bell and biz Mackey? Yet honus has two 99’s? They should be dropping cards in at least ranked until the new game comes out, silly they don’t after a certain point, is it that hard to update ranked rewards. They just dump everything at the end and it’s stupid.
That being said, who could actually get their 99 as a postseason card for retro World Series program incoming?
-
As a side note there are 13 players who currently have 5 cards and 53 who have 4 cards (it may include ranked 1000 cards I am not sure).

They couldn’t have given us someone we want as a chase card as opposed to D. Allen? Headliners have been super stale too. Come on SdS
-
We haven't seen a 99 Mackey which is exceptionally strange since he's a meta switch hitting catcher with a fantastic swing but we have a 99, 97 and a 91 Adley Rutchsman.

@DrBear100_PSN Randy Johnson , cool papa bell , Chipper Jones, Bob Gibson and all the relievers I mentioned are all Meta players also, and fan favorites

I have wanted the vast majority of headliners they have been releasing, and [censored] Allen is 1000x more appealing to me than some switch hitter du jour.
I also would have taken Campy if I had been playing this inning.
I just can't be more disappointed that all these HoF cards are being dumped in non grindable packs instead of, you know, the Hall of Fame program.

How dare you talk about Ted a Simmons, Ozzie Smith, Lance Berkman and Willie McGee like that!

Just noticed that it included Leonardo Bernal on the list but he is obviously not a legend.
The problem happens because his Topps Now card is Leonardo and his live series is Leo. Since my program did not find a matching name in the live series it assumed he was a legend
-
Since the conversation in the Retro WS discussion has turned to Legends. I thought I would take another look at them and see where we stand.
Kind of surprising to see how many still have their best card at 90 or below and how many of those have only had a single card (as indicated by the number after their name). That includes big names like Lou Gehrig Willie Mays and Randy Johnson.
70 out of 111 legends who do not have a 99 card have only received a single card so far this year. You have to assume that the ones at 88 or below were all released as soon as the game launched.

The other issue is how much are these guys gonna be when they're released. Joe Morgan was one of the most recent legends released and he's almost up to 200k. Babe Ruth had 115 buy orders at 1M, Bobby Witt last I checked had about 25. Every specialty pack is basically Al Kaline. Every LS is either Glasnow or someone below 88. BIAP and regular packs are basically worthless. The marketplace activity looks and feels as if we're in late February. Is there gonna be a Negro League program / exchange or are we gonna be expected to buy each one separately?
Heck, I may just end up finishing this year playing some random games on '25.

What about him? He is included in the list, 2 cards with his best being a 97. Better that about 100 guys on the list.
But thanks, it pointed me to another error.
Zach Thornton - Topps Now
Zac Thornton - LiveJust seems sloppy both on SDS' part for not being able to sync the name of these players and me for not proofing it and catching it before.

Sorry, that was meant to come out as whom I'm waiting for a 99. Hopefully with the Red Sox.

@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN
I want an actual 99 Ted Williams. My 97 Teddy is P5 99 and is my best hitter so thinking an actual 99 will the best.
