Frank or C.J. or Bell. But Pujols is the best if you got the stubs

That would of been Vlad Sr. and Frank Thomas for me growing up. And I'm a Tigers fan, so imagine the mixed emotions with Frank!

Hate to break it to ya, but unless they totally redesign Bagwells swing, he will be trash. He is every year. So just prepare for that so you're not let down. Just my opinion

I get it. It's a general comment I'm making about content release and using Bagwell as my personal example of a failure here for more diversity of teams getting cards.

No problem vent on... I don't disagree... just a heads up brother

We have a private league of guys that use DD cards for friendly games. Bagwell gets over 600 ab a year regardless of the crappy swing. He was juiced about 3 years ago IIRC, but that swing rivals Schmidt in terms of resembling Bantha Poodu.

Bags is still my boy.

Hahaha... I actually did like Bags a lot and Schmidt as well growing up. But yeah omg this game both have horrible swings.

Haven't used Carter yet this year and generally don't care for his swing. Adley was a beast last year for me but has been just passable this year. Starting to like Ward more for his bat and speed. And I think 90 Murphy and 90 Realmuto are both underrated and good choices as well.

Neither... mystery map is where it's at rn imo

Yup, 5 packs for thee 3 games. I play on Veteran and have it knocked out in like an hour, just have to play Angels, Guardians, and Braves all the time. And no home games.

You can do it in like 25-30 minutes if you dont care so much about getting pxp... just score once or twice and then swing at everything

Neither... mystery map is where it's at rn imo

Another vote for Cruz... I want to try Ketel there possibly once his price comes down.

I’ll add a few.

Jesse Orosco. Lou Whitaker. Tim Raines. Steve Carlton. Randy Myers. Dan Quisenberry. Carlton Fisk.

Gimme my 80s.

Let's see, if we're going 80s I'd love:
Danny Tartabul
Lenny Dykstra
Eric Show
Chili Davis
Benito Santiago (80s-00s)

If they allow Dykstra in this game, they need to allow EVERYONE in because Dykstra has literally done everything illegal

NAILS!!! He is the poster board example of what not to do after retirement. But I say let them all in, Strawberry, Canseco, Bonds, Rose etc... why not they're some of the best players and personalities ever

Oh! I forgot! We gotta get Bob Uecker in there! Great piece of Brewers history, but also as an announcer, and Major League... he just really should be in the game.

And can we get some good classic music next year? Have they ever put Dire Straits' 'Walk of Life' in any of these games? That, to me, is like the quintessential baseball theme.

^^^ (and definitely a Doc Ellis milestone LSD card!) ^^^

Uecker would be an amazing announcer! That would add so much to the game. SDS needs to open up the check book and get his rights.

Oh and a Doc Ellis No Hitter on LSD milestone card as well!!

Mark "The Bird" Fiderich. Give him some quirky animations like jumping over the foul line and a cut scene where he talks to himself on the mound. Oh and I wouldnt mind them adding Bo and or Deion and Jim Abbott.

88 speed in unplayable?

yes it is if you want to steal a base. come on now, junior.

I can steal bases easily with less than 88 speed. Depending on catcher/pitcher and steal rating, you only need like 68 ish speed with 50+ stealing or so to pull it off regularly. And I highly doubt I'm your junior guy.

88 speed in unplayable?

@t-rox_09_mlbts said in Which card is worse?:

Lightning Rizzo or lightning dawson? Neither of them make my squad but I am a Cubs fan so I will at least give Rizzo a try but these are extremely underwhelming in my opinion. Call me crazy. I don't think that 80 contact holds up on Hall of Fame

Wouldn't being a "Cubs fan" warrant you trying Dawson as well? I mean his best years were arguably as a Cub... js

I agree this moment is pure garbage.

Howard, Tatis, or Otani

@go4stros25_psn said in RoY Pujols:

He's the 2nd best card in the game minus the collections. I wouod try him out

I was gonna say... I don't have collections done so haven't tried those cards, but I do have live series Trout and Pujols is just as good for me if not maybe better. I'd use him a few times and see if you like him first.

@madderbumgarner said in Dream Cards:

I say it every year! My top 3:

1. Tim Lincecum
2. Roger Maris
3. Jim Abbot

Abbot would be fun. The animation of him flipping his mitt to catch a ball would be incredible.

Was just telling my buddy the other day about how cool a Jim Abbott card would be!
