Agreed. This HOF event doesn't feel the same as HOF Ranked. Pitch speeds in the event, IMO, feel somewhere in the middle of All Star and HOF.

If I think it's over 450ft I'll watch in admiration, whether it's from me or against me.

And I could buy a single powerball ticket and be a millionaire tomorrow too.

That would be the easiest way.

So people on the west coast who have a job can’t get Friday’s sale. Thanks SDS.

Yes u can!! U can buy them through this site. Did u not know that?

Yes I am but I have a job where I can't log in to this site every hour. Like, I have a job I need to attend to.

Pretend you have to take a [censored] every hour and then buy a pack while sitting on the John.

Small sample size but bought Rollins to make a WS push and he was easily my most consistent player and the ball was flying off his bat for home runs and deep gappers. never had to worry any time the ball was hit to him on defense. Small sample size but would recommend.

How about another unwritten rule and let's make this 48 hours permanent.

Hopefully the intern that referred to him as Fat Griffey on stream didn't get promoted to the Content Team.

Haven't read through all of the comments but has anyone mentioned a laggy connection? Would be worth both agreeing to a friendly quit than 9 innings of lag due to internet connection or servers.

In getting Mantle you will also get players towards the Big Collection such as Garret Anderson for the Angels who is part of Billy Wagner reward who is part of Biggio reward. You'll collect a lot of cards as a byproduct of getting Mantle.

I live in Los Angeles. I have no idea what’s going on with the servers but I will say this. Servers went out the exact minute lightning struck in the greater Los Angeles area (I don’t about San Diego or where there servers are) and our power went out.

Updated rewards for uniforms also.

You’re guaranteed to get a 5k diamond so look at it as a 15k gamble. Always search the silver lining.

A lot of good points made that I hadn't thought of. Thanks to all.

I've read in a few separate threads about people talking about their experiences with a prestiged version not players as well as the base version. Are many finding similar cases with their prestiged version of players? Could it also be a conscious or unconscious approach at the plate thinking "I have to do well or hit a bomb, XBH, etc because he is a prestiged version and I grinded so long for this card" that this added pressure had a negative impact on our new shiny ruby diamonds?

Your will never see a shark week conquest map from 2k. Or things given to their customers in the way SDS does. It would be very bad. They still have yet to take it contracts for cards you purchase.

Unless they completely separate this card from reality, it won’t have 80+ power though. What made Alomar amazing in 17 was the 99 scale that kept his power reasonable (and very few other decent options at 2b). I see this card as a second base clone of Rollins without the ability to prestige.

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say he'll have 85ish power versus righties and 80-83 versus lefties. 125 contact vs righties, 105 vs lefties.

His power splits are almost identical to Rollins MVP year. I don’t see how they could give Alomar 80 power based on his 1999 gold glove season.

Well they gave him mid 80s power on the 99 scale back in 17. If you translate that to the 125 scale he would have 100 power. But we both know that's not happening, I think the numbers I mentioned are very reasonable but I guess we'll find out.

Just coming on to gloat a bit that I called it. Essentially Rollins at 2b

For sure. I'm disappointed with his contact numbers as well not gonna lie. This card turned out to be an easy pass for me.

I’m gutted too, you know how I am with Alomar, I’ll buy him anyway, Wagner too, but if this is to be his best card, it’s disappointing. As you mentioned earlier in the thread, the shift from 99 to 125 power scale has ruined cards like Alomar and Rollins, albeit the stats now more accurately reflect the player, which was SDS intention when moving to 125. It’s just that when they give the future stars and so on such juiced stats that they’re probably never going to deserve, a barely useable version of a favourite legend does leave a bitter taste in light of that kind of comparison.

Couldn't have said it better. Angels are my favorite team and Adell seems like he's averaging a hat trick every time I look at the Angels game log.
