So in those last two bronze/silver Yankee packs you get for the Granderson mission, three out of the four bronze I pulled were Luis Cessa and two of the silver were Aaron Hicks. Giving us multiple copies of "no sell" cards is the ultimate slap in the face and indefensible.

Let me preface this by saying I do have perspective as to what truly matters in this world. As a husband and father I put my family's health and well-being above all.
Now, like most everyone who loves baseball, whether it's a way of life for you or simply a distraction to get away from things that might get us down or stress us out, the news that the sports world is grinding to a halt has me equal parts frustrated, sad, and angry.
While I put in over 600 offline hours in The Show 19, I couldn't be more ready for this to drop tonight to give me something fresh to dive into. I'm going to miss the rest of spring training and am expecting the regular season to be pushed back for who knows how long, but The Show 20 is going to help me get through this for sure.

There is no reason to lock them until you’ve accumulated all the stats.
I also don’t understand why anyone would play DD if they never play online.
There's a lot of us. Trust me. I get a lot out of playing only the A.I.
I get nothing out of playing a human. Mainly because when i started gaming, there was no online, until Sega's NFL 2K came along.Amen to this. Online is for suckers. When 95% of a game's issues are attributed to how it plays online, I'm not about to put myself through that.

Why not play franchise or RTTS? DD is an online mode. SMH.
I do actually but enjoy DD more. And at last check Moments, Showdown, and Conquest were all offline modes and key to getting some of the better cards in the game. Overall I think SDS does an almost decent job of trying to balance online rewards and offline rewards but no card should ever be exclusive to online accomplishments. I think they're onto something with prestiging a player and THAT should be the reward for playing online. Give everyone equal access to every card whether they want to earn it online or off.

Per their FB post. Pretty awesome if you ask me!
5 random cards per pack and you get to pick one.
-
Non-sellable is fine as exchanging is more important at this point IMO.
-
It's definitely Votto. The one guy was wearing his jersey during the stream and right at the end they referenced it as a big clue about the upcoming program and they all started laughing so it was a big giveaway.
-
Pretty safe to say with SDS giving out 99s like candy that both Seager and Arozarena are guaranteed to get one next week.
-
While I'm disappointed this means he won't be on the cover next year, that card is absolute fire and I will have him as soon as humanly possible!
-
It sucks but what do you suggest? There would be an awful lot of kids unplugging PS4s if that were the case. I had a genuine internet issue with my provider that kicked me off once but they have absolutely no way of knowing what caused the disconnect.
-
And of course it's George effing Springer.
100% my fault but they suckered me in again. I'm just embarrassed I actually got excited for a moment.
-
I've never pulled a Trout in any year but I have pulled three Coles and a deGrom this year. But I don't play online and haven't bought any packs so I consider that pretty lucky.

@DarthKDog09 said in With THREE choices, is anyone honestly not taking Bo?:
He wouldn't make my lineup. Cap at SS all day. No comparison.
If I want to play with fake players I'll play Super Mega Baseball. But even still, his eligibility should get him somewhere.
Speaking of which, I haven't watched enough Blue Jay games to know so am I to assume during this stretch he has actually played at all three positions? I didn't know if they were just being generous since I would expect the card to represent him accurately on both offense and defense during that week.
-
Not exactly breaking news if you watched the stream but figured those that didn't watch it might want to know.
-
As an offline only player I would be fine if they made prestiging players the ONLY perk to playing online. That's the only place those cards would be desirable anyway. My prestiged Posey has pretty much treated me the same in all the offline modes as the non-prestiged one. We simply don't need prestiged cards against the CPU.
Make all cards available to offline players in some capacity and let the online players have the ability to prestige them all via online stats. Simple solution and everyone wins.
-
I echo the sentiments of fellow offline players that I have played though this many, many times.
On a related note, you guys know that you can keep adding reinforcements to the same spot to keep increasing the number right? Basically reinforce then skip through move, attack, and steal and then rinse/repeat. That way you can play at whatever level you want if you do that enough.

@cavalier_0013 said in TA 4/Finest Predictions:
99 Soto for WAS would be surprising. He already has a FOTF card for WAS.
And? They gave Posey a FOTF and a 99 right out of the gate so having a FOTF means nothing especially considering you're looking at a 10 point difference.
-
How Microsoft pulled this off is otherworldly. Amazing news for Xbox game pass subscribers for sure. I'm still buying the digital deluxe because I have to think it won't be on there but so long, just enough time to suck people into how awesome the game is.
-
I only wonder how these awfully nice Topps Now cards impacts the Finest program this year if the player maintains their performance. Like could there literally be a 98 and a 99 of the same player when all is said and done?
-
If so, please explain. I want to get inside the mind of a lunatic.
But for real, even as an owner of Larkin, Rollins, Jackie, Hornsby, Bryant, Killebrew, etc., there's no way this guy won't find a home for me somewhere.
Yet another reason not allowing exchanges makes no sense...
This couldn't be coming out at a better time...
