Pure guess if I'm right SDS should just give them to me lol

Thinking it's going to be Finest Series:

96' Greg Maddux
97' Larry Walker
99' Mariano Rivera

I highly doubt it’s any of the cards you listed above. They already have good 99 versions of their cards. There are actually quite a few legends who have not received a 99 card yet. These are the ones I found:

Warren Spahn
Al Kaline
Jerry Hairston Jr.
Ryan Ludwick
Lefty Grove
Bert Blyleven
Ron Guidry
Bret Saberhagen
Paul Konerko
Edgar Martinez
Jason Kendall
Monte Irvin

I’m assuming the last 2 Finders Keepers cards will be from that list. However, I do think that the final Finders Keepers collection reward will be Lou Gehrig or Honus Wagner. The 99 versions that they have in the game right now are pretty weak.

So many legends missing their deserving 99 cards, makes me wonder why we got three 99s for Elly, Schwarber, Machado, Realmuto, Tucker (but no Bregman for example?).. let's say they were so stunned by their performances that they thought all those 99s for them are deserving, but why do we have two Alan Trammells which are pretty much identical? We could have Kaiju Trammel and Awards Al Kaline. Awards and Snapshot Carter? Again almost identical cards. Instead of one Carter we could have Edgar Martinez for example. I assume I am in the minority that doesn't mind sets but some decisions are just weird from SDS side. And don't get me started on no sell rewards from events, but that's completely different topic

I agree with you completely! Why do we have so many multiple 99 versions of cards from current players when there is a huge list of legends that never even got a 99 all year? SDS seems to do this every year where they fail to release a good version of so many legends. I thought this year was going to be different with sets and how many cards they were giving us, but I was wrong. Why pay to have their rights in the game if you’re just going to ignore them and not give them a card that reflects how good they actually were in their prime?

@RevCuddyer Chili Davis was part of the 1991 World Series team.

@Dolenz To be fair, I know the Royals haven’t gotten enough love this season or any season for that matter. This highlights the major problem with Sets and Seasons in that we lose so many cards from our theme teams each season. A lot of the Twins good cards were from Set 3 and now can’t be used in Set 5 . So, they should add some more Twins cards to replace those cards. Except they didn’t. SDS needs to add way more legends into the game as well to make this system work. I was shocked when I downloaded a crappy MLB mobile game one time, only to find out that they had far more legends in that than in MLB the Show.

@BJDUBBYAH I agree. Or bring back that 99 Finest Polanco from a few years ago.

@chucky97___ I know Bert usually stinks in the game, but that’s more on SDS only making certain pitches effective in the game. He’s in the Hall of Fame after all and should have a 99. Kubel’s not in the game and what would be the point of giving us another 99 Mauer when we can use the Kaiju 99 we already have in a couple weeks.

The Twins haven’t gotten one single card outside of the 3 cards for Team Affinity in Set 5. Today would have been the perfect opportunity to release a Retro Finest Chili Davis from the 1991 season with the Twins when he won the World Series and was a key member of that team. Instead they gave him his third card from the Angels and selected his 1995 season which wasn’t all that amazing and he had better years with the Angels. He hit for a good average, but only 20 homers. We’re still waiting on a 99 Joe Nathan, Bert Blyleven, and Torii Hunter. The Twins only got 1 finest card as well and the Tigers got 5 even though the Twins won the division. That doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

I’ m having the same issue this year. I received my packs last year, but I haven’t received a single pack this year even though it says I’m subscribed to the newsletter on The Show’s website.

There's an exchange or do you just mean, you aren't getting the XP for completing. Just curious as I haven't haven't by my console yet.

@eatyum_psn said in SDS must hate the Twins:

It seems that the SDS hates 29 teams which is truly impressive, will a Padres fan step up and make a case on why they hate the Padres so we can round it up to 30?

To be fair, I don't actually think SDS hates the Twins. I was being.a bit tongue in cheek with that comment. But, I am still salty that we don't have a 99 Puckett yet,so I was hoping maybe we'd at least get a 99 Buxton in the meantime. The Twins so rarely get new legends in the game (and no, Walter Johnson does not count. He played for the Washington Senators, not the Twins), so it stinks that we still don't have his best card in the game. So, to make up for this I demand a 99 Twins legend Nick Punto in MLB 22.

Are you saying Bert Blyleven isn't an amazing legend?

And I will hear no slander, Nick Punto is a Cardinals legend and he has the ring to prove it.

I hope you get Joe Mauer next year

Well, Bert Blyleven will always be a legend in my eyes for swearing on live television. And yes, Nick Punto is also a great Cardinals legend. I would love it if he got Joe Mauer back in the game, too. His card from MLB 17 was one of my favorite cards in The Show ever.

@lazy_toast_psn said in SDS must hate the Twins:

Bro what are you on? Polanco is more deserving than Buxton by a mile. Why would Buxton get a Finest? I don’t think you understand what Finest cards are for. The man didn’t play sooooooo

I didn't say that Polanco wasn't deserving. He's the right choice for the Twins Team Affinity. What I'm saying is that Buxton definitely deserved a Finest Card from one the 2 Finest choice packs that they released this week over guys like Schwindel and Nimmo. By the way, take a look at how many games Schwindel played compared to Buxton. Buxton played 61 games compared to Schwindel's 56. Yet, they still gave Schwindel a Finest card. So, your argument falls pretty flat.

Personally I would have liked a Buxton Finest too. But it's not like they disregarded his season. He got a diamond LS immediately, then he got a 42 diamond in TA1 and then he was the lightning champion PoTM or whatever you wanna call it for April. By my count he's still got more cards than Freeman, Tatis, Trout and a whole host of others. I get what you are saying about players like Nimmo and Schwindel but there are so many deserving players that didn't get a Finest.

As for Puckett and Killebrew. I know a guy who knows a girl who does SDS' taxes and we'll probably get them next inning.

Yea, I think I'm actually more frustrated about not getting a 99 Puckett yet. Buxton was probably a long shot. Just to clarify though, Buxton only has 2 cards in the game. His live series and POTM. He didn't get the 42 card in TA1. That was Jose Berrios.

Haha now that would have been amazing!

Buxton is a glass statue. The guy does not deserve a finest. Maybe he will get one next year when he’s patrolling center for the Dodgers.

Sadly, given the Twins awful front office, this will most likely be the case. I doubt he's signing here. Then, he'll go on to win multiple World Series and become a future Hall of Famer. David Ortiz, anyone?

Don’t even compare buxton to Ortiz. I’m a huge Twins fan and I’m praying they let Buxton go. If he’s healthy he’s the best defensive center fielder in the game with speed for days. He will give you average pop with a good BA. Problem is he’s not worth the 20 mil per he’s going to cost. I wouldn’t mind having him back on a base low cost salary with risers if he plays a certain amount of games.

I'm certainly not saying that Buxton will become the next Ortiz, but you never know what he could turn into if he could actually stay healthy, We've all seen the potential that he has. But, I agree that it's probably too much money to devote to a guy that can never stay healthy. I don't think he's signing here anyways, so it's not going to matter. I can tell you I'd sure rather they sign Buxton than Sano. I can't wait for the Twins to get rid of him. All he does is strike out constantly (and usually in key situations) and then hit a meaningless home run every once in while. He's a total defensive liability as well.,

The Twins will be better off without him. I love how he started out hot and had one good month so everyone wanted to crown him a great hitter. If he hadn’t gotten hurt he would have gone into a deep deep slump and dragged his average down to .220…..

Sure it's possible that would have happened. But, he also raked when he came back in September so I don't think you can really says that. . When he's actually been healthy the past few years he;s been really good at the plate. But yes, that's his major issue is that he's constantly hurt.

Still, there's no way that the Twins would be better off without him. When he's healthy, he provides so much value with his defense and speed alone. And now that he's added much more power to his game, he's become a force at the plate and drives in a lot of runs.

Not sure I get your point there. Sure, SDS has a Twins fan on their staff, but I'm not sure if how much say he would have in actually getting Twins cards into the game. My point is that some of the choicest for these Finest cards didn't seem very deserving compared to other cards they could have given us. Aaron Loup is fine. He had a great season. But, Brandon Nimmo getting a Finest card is ridiculous. His numbers were very mediocre, and this will also give the Mets 3 Finest cards once Team Affinity comes out tomorrow. Yet quite a few other teams will only getting 1 when they deserved more for sure. And again, if you want to say that Buxton didn't deserve one because of how few games he played this year, then why did Schwindel get one? He played in fewer games than Buxton.

@thegoaler_psn said in SDS must hate the Twins:

They had Mauer on the cover twice. Maybe if they won something recently or had a great player(s) currently, you'd see more Twins

Ok I can accept that, but what exactly have the Mets done in recent years? I'm sure most people would agree that they were in no way deserving of 3 finest card this year. Even the Cubs and Orioles are going to have at least 2.
