After looking at the attributes they have revealed for some of the cards I have concluded that they will be very good additions to theme teams but will most likely not reshape your God Squad.
I hope people are not expecting that. None of the batters that I ran the numbers on even cracked my top 50 offensive players list (normal caveat - based on attribute numbers only)

I’m signed up to receive the Scouting Report e-mails, but don’t get them
If you don't get the others for some reason then you most likely would not get this one. Wish I could help troubleshoot more but I can't.
Do you guys get the other emails from MLB The Show? Like the Scouting report e-mails or the e-mail last week announcing the live stream? If you don't get those then you won't get this one.
By the way, using Gmail it was automatically sent to the promotions tab and did not show in my normal inbox.
Just got mine. Does anyone believe that I did not choose the Cardinals as my favorite team when starting the game?
Not sure why I got Arizona but I did.

I don’t know if the Yankees Finest will be Bellinger, but I hope he gets a card. His finest from MLBTS 19 was one of my favorite versions, so maybe he would would get a retro card from then. Didn’t he win the NL MVP in 19, or am I getting my years mixed up?
It is Bellinger
It's official, even though it is in my opinion "too little, too late" they gave all 5 teams without a pitcher captain a pitcher captain this time around.
AL East
NL WEST
@Fattass3294_MLBTS said in Finest codes:
Has anyone received any of the emails for the AL EAST finest codes yet
They have not announced that they are going out yet today
They are showing attributes for some of the first days finest cards. I won't post them all but will choose a batter and pitcher to show the type of attributes you can expect. And, for those who may not have been sure, they do have Captain tabs.
Drake Baldwin probably has the most balanced stats While Jo Adell has the best Con & Power numbers (but at the cost of Vis & Disc)
Starting Pitchers at least seem to be getting boosted H/9 and K/9 but get lesser boosts in BB/9 and Hr/9 at least at first glance
@brainfreeze442_PSN said in Cody Bellinger:
I think even Max Fried could get one. Have they announced the TA pick yet?
Its the Yankees. I am sure that they will somehow get multiple Finest cards eventually

Sonny Gray having one of his worst seasons get a finest card is wild. Good win loss record though
I assume that they are trying to give the 5 teams without a pitcher captain a pitcher captain finally. Actually I still only have the live version of Sonny because his Summer card was a Diamond Quest reward and the price of that card has never come down and I refused to pay 50K in stubs for a 93 overall
I just hope that this is not our only finest because the players who probably deserved it like Contreras, Burleson or even Winn. If not it will be somewhat disappointing

How do I select my team to get an email? I’m a Yankees fan but I never remember getting to select a favorite team.
It is something that I think the game prompts you to do the first time you play so most of us should have done so back in march
That said I never got my email today as of the last time I checked
@brainfreeze442_PSN said in Finest Reveals from X/Twitter users:
Is Paul Skenes going to get a Finest card?
It possible, probably even likely. There is a Finest program next week and they have been releasing them as rewards in other modes.

YeahWait. I thought the email allowed tou to unlock reward packs for the whole community?
I haven't received any email yet and chances are, if I have to submit ticket, it will get answered as fast as the ticket I submitted MONTHS AGO that STILL hasn't been answered.
The way I read Colin's response earlier was that there is a chase pack you get for inputting the code. The community rewards that show on the top of the finest page are for the community and will appear in the store (unspecified as to when).
I find their emails to be spotty at best. I still have emails for the last few scouting reports. I got an email about last week's live stream but the last time I checked nothing today yet

Is Skenes going to be an option.
I don't know how you have a 2025 Finest card series without Skenes.
I'm just saying that he is not the Pirates TA Finest card and I think that the pack will be limited to just those 30 cards. That is how i believe the all-star cards worked. The pack did not include the collection cards or the All Star Program cards.
I have little doubt that he gets one. I just don't think it will be a choice in that pack.
Beat me to posting that one. Is Skenes going to be an option. I assume, like the all-star pack it will just include the 30 TA Finest cards.
This is what I needed to keep me even marginally invested as I would still like to get some Cardinals to P5

I notice both the A's and Cardinals are getting pitchers as Finest even though, at least in the case of the Cardinals I am not sure it was deserved.
It will be interesting to see if the Rockies, Orioles and Rays also get pitchers as they are the other three teams without one.
Which Rockies pitcher deserves a 'Finest,' though with the season they had?
Jimmy Herget? 2.48 ERA in 59 appearances and 83.1 innings.
