Even as a Cardinals fan I can't see myself using him in that position.

Winn
Gorman
Saggese
Donovan

All of those can already play 2B.

Yep, that is typical for Topps Now cards. They regularly give cards to rookies for getting their first hit. RBI or home run. They are usually for single game achievements.

In fact SDS seems to look for Topps Now Cards (these are real cards released by Topps) that are specifically for players who may not otherwise have any chance to earn a better card.

Ok so Randy and Ozzie have that same arrow themed background on their reveal so they upgrade as well?

No, it is just the three cornerstone cards.

It gives me a unhandled server, exception error whenever I try to look at Ryan Johnson in the market

On the website there is a message that the Community Market and Packs Store are down for updates.

My thinking: They shut them down during times of Server errors so people don't potentially lose stubs buying or selling.

Because they want you to and it is a bit of a Stub sink.

Back in the day, if I am not mistaken we only got 1 boss pack per inning so this is a step up from there but a step back from last season. And because they gave only one pack back in the day the bosses always were pretty expensive.

I am going to wait a few more. I usually start with moments and don't want to see them get erased with a potential error.

Do cornerstone card evolve? If so what do they top out at?

Looks like 87's this time around.
I think Bruce Sutter is the only one that changes teams with their evolved card.

According to the Website, Profar has been moved to Free Agents so he should not be needed anymore

@SaveFarris_PSN said in Jurickson Profar card:

I think the roster update broke the game.

Actually surprised to see to see the Unhandled Exception errors but I am not sure why I should be.

@Dolenz_PSN
Looks like your Cardinals are being represented well this year. I am still waiting for Vince Coleman, Willie McGee, and Jack Clark!

Yeah, I can't complain, but since we have already seen early versions of Gibson, Smith, Edmonds, MacGwire, Simmons and Musial I fully expect there to be a dry spell of several months when it comes to Cardinals legends before some of these guys get their 99s.

We'll probably see some low to mid 90's versions of maybe Holiday and Brock.

As an observation and not necessarily a complaint, it was interesting to see Ozzie with only 87 fielding in a year that he won one of his many Gold Gloves. But I understand how they have to tweak some things to keep within the power curve.

Chase pack #5

Pretty good card for Astros fans considering that he only pitched 11 of his 618 games for them.

I'm not worried. I'm going to get him. I was just kind of mentioning that last year for the first and second season almost every Cardinal they released were in the packs (or they were collection rewards). If they do that again then that is fine. It's their call.

It was more of an observation than anything else.

But I will say that when cards I want are in packs then it does not give me a much of incentive to play the programs, so maybe that is actually a plus.

April Spotlight Pack - Here is hoping they don't fall into the habit of always putting Cardinal players in the packs like they did for the first few seasons last year.

A couple of the April Spotlight Cards

@PAinPA_PSN said in 2nd Inning and April 11th Card Reveals:

I have to check to see if I still need cards steals, he'd be a better option than winn(who can hit but has borderline speed)or that other guy who has great speed but no hitting skills.

For my cardinals theme team I simply kept Victor Scott II on my bench and pinch run him anytime someone gets a single. Then just sub in Brendan Donovan the next inning because he can play everywhere

The Show Live returns tomorrow at 11 AM PT!

We’re revealing what’s next in MLB The Show 25, including:
2nd Inning Program
🧩 Team Affinity: My Journey Update
April Spotlight Drop 2
🧱 3 NEW Cornerstone s
The FIRST Weekend Classic of the year
…and more

New Cornerstone Cards
(wondering if Sutter will end up being a diamond Cub?)

And and Ozzie Smith reward path card (Not a boss) that nobody but us die hards will use

They say "Earn one of the best Ozzie Smith s we’ve ever released in the 2nd Inning Program Reward Path (and he’s not even a Boss)!"

So this one is somehow better than the mid 90's or even 99 Ozzie cards we have gotten in the past? Let's not overdue the hyperbole

I'll be the outlier here.

Only at 375K.

A couple of things are the cause of the lower number.

1. I decided I was not going to grind programs, and more specifically PXP missions, with players I did not care about to earn other characters that I do not care about.
2. I have been playing the heck out of Assassin's Creed Shadows.

@Dolenz_PSN

Thats what it says but I'm still skeptical because of what my screen shows. My max rank is 732. Should say my weekend league is Gold 1, but my current rank is 699 and it says silver 2 for weekend league.

I guess we'll see when it starts if it's just a visual bug or if they didn't program it as explained.

I never claimed it would go off as they said or that it will not be bugged.

I guess we'll have to wait and see.

People often refer to the HRs. They reset at 255. It has been that way for years, maybe since the beginning. If they wanted to fixit they probably could have by now. I kind of assume it's their way to entice people to play at a harder difficulty.

It is the first I have heard of anyone speaking about Runs and RBIs though.
