I echo most of what you've said. I've always been one who wants a genuine broadcast-feel experience, and so more broadcasters who can rotate would be something I'd enjoy, as with new "gamebugs" (the part of the screen with the score, runners on base...). I'm not sure if you mean trading draft picks like is done in nfl or nba, but in baseball I think you can only trade compensatory picks, and there a few rules to even that process, so I'm not sure if I agree there. I'd love to see a screen when you're drafting of player comparisons to modern and/or retired players.

Hi everyone!

I'm working on some research i'm using for a college comp sci class, and I'd love to hear opinions.

Here's the data I seek:

Most underrated pitcher of the 21st century?

I'm working on a leverage index on individual pitches, so name some post '90s high stress moments. (E.g. Should a changeup be the pitch thrown in a 3-1 count in the WS?) (E.g. Rajai Davis 2016 HR in WS Gm7)

Do you think there is a certain stat that can be linked to a team's window? (e.g. is a team having a .10 higher OBP than average more likely to be in contention for x more years than another who is at league average?)

I understand there may be other flaws to this data, but given that it is just to start and not serious sabermetric analysis yet, I'd appreciate it anyways!

Thanks! I wish you all a great, safe day! I hope for a good game tonight, regardless of who you root for!

We have to consider that this legend would be a 99 as that is what they all have been so far and we can eliminate a player from the first 11.

We also have to look at players that completed no hitters and cycles due to Milestones.

They announced it to be a Milestone series card?

Odds of new legend being Jeter and finally making Yankee fans happy?

I say 50/50 based on HOF induction today. Some say he's "too big" a name for a September release but I think he actually fits the bill.

Last year it was Thome and Henke I believe.

And Salmon. But I'm still upset they dropped Buehrle, one of my faves.

i got a feeling its a 90s legend. Maybe Viola for the Twins?

I see people continue to clamor for Jeter, and I just don't get it. Is it just because he was able to win many championships? In MLBTS he would just be essentially Rod Carew... a contact hitter with below average power, defense and speed. Again, I'm not trying to offend anyone, I just don't get why everyone wants him when there would be more fun options to use in game as new legends because their card stats would be better, like say, Adrian Beltre.

Koufax, Drysdale, Nomo, Ramon Martinez, Ron Cey, the list goes on and on and on

Never heard of Martinez until now. Thanks!

Really?

Yeah it must've been an oversight on my part, because I love learning about these type of more obscure stars.

As a guy whose main squad is a Phillies theme team I would love Bobby too!

@bostondirtdog21 said in Thoughts on New Legends?:

Definitely will never see Wetteland. Google him and you’ll see what a disgrace of a human he is.

Oh gosh, thanks for letting me know, I had no idea. I had just seen him on the top lists for relievers and slot him in, but you're definitely right.

I'd love to know, even if it isn't a ranking of all of them, which of these legends are we the most and least likely to get for next year?

Carlos Delgado
Arthur Rhodes
Mark Grace
John Wetteland
Bobby Abreu
Tim Hudson
Carl Yastrzemski
Javier Vasquez
Derrek Lee
Paul Assenmacher
Javy Lopez
Dontrelle Willis

Ngl I'm so hype i've prepared a sheet with the order I'm going with. The first five I got will be whoever the Phillies is, along with Oswalt and Thome for my Phillies TT, and then Webb and I'll probably go with one of/the other of the new legends

Pirates-Quinn Priester

I think Ant Ortiz revealed it

Why do ppl keep saying texas?

I think they cut their grass in horizontal squares, which is what the fourth picture shows. Either in their new or old stadiums, but I could be wrong.

Ronny Mauricio for the Mets and Josiah Gray for the Dodgers. Really hype now that my Phillies still haven't been announced with 2 new legends left!

Hoping for Utley.

Yeah, I could see him, Howard, Lidge or even Halladay.

won't be halladay or lidge

Why?

Halladay's family hasn't negotiated with sds. Lidge is hated by the media so i just don't think they will give him the card. Also they haven't done any relievers.

Oh. I'd never known about the media issues with Lidge, but with the Milestone card art, I would've loved to have seen a "Perfect Save Season" from the '08 'chip season. For Halladay, it would make more sense though, since I remember one of his sons tweeting that if SDS wanted the rights, it wouldn't be too much of a hurdle, and that was two years ago.

As a Jays fan, I would be offended if the first card Halladay got in DD was as a Phil

Understandable.
