And then there were 3.
Please eliminate the Braves.
@samguenther1987 said in Why is Glavine's Top Card Only a 96:
I have a feeling were not done with the Smoltz/Glavine/Maddux cards. If you look under nameplates there's one for all 3 combined that makes me think there's a program still coming this summer possibly making all 3 of them 99s? There's also nameplates for Griffey, Ortiz, Nolan Ryan, and Babe Ruth.
Glav is a sig though, those are top cards. Unless he gets a prestige somehow.
I pray the Dodgers isn't Mookie for the simple fact that his stats against lefties are going to suck.
Yeah....either that or 6-8 total bases with Lou Gehrig who has 1/10th the power of what he should based on the card he has.
My picks for all teams:
Yankees - Aroldis Chapman
Red Sox - Rafael Devers
Orioles - Cedric Mullins (ugh)
Rays - Mike Zunino
Blue Jays - Teoscar Hernandez
Tigers- Gregory Soto
Twins - Nelson Cruz (ugh)
Indians - Jose Ramirez
Royals - Salvador Perez
White Sox - Liam Hendriks
Athletics - Matt Olsen
Angels - Shohei Ohtani
Mariners - Yusei Kikuchi
Astros - Jose Altuve (double Ugh)
Rangers - Adolis Garcia
Braves - Ozzie Albies
Marlins - Trevor Rogers
Mets - Jacob DeGrom
Nationals - Trea Turner
Phillies - J.T. Realmuto
Pirates - Adam Frazier
Brewers - Brandon Woodruff
Cubs - Kris Bryant
Reds- Nick Castellanos
Cardinals - Nolan Arenado
Diamondbacks - Eduardo Escobar
Rockies - German Marquez
Giants - Kevin Gausman
Padres - Yu Darvish
Dodgers - Max Muncy
42 Series Yordan Alvarez....period.
I hit Homers in my first 5 at-bats with him. Never looked back.
[censored] well better get a 99 Postseason....only good side to my sox losing.
I pulled 3 Chase Packs from the 15 Standards you get at the end of the Monthly Awards program.
And in one of the packs where a pulled a Chase pack I also pulled ACUNA!!!!
And to top it off I pulled Delgado in my 2nd Chase!!!!
Best....pack opening.....EVER!
Also all legends that have been revealed are available to use in Exhibition or Franchise via Legends Teams and the Free Agent Pool.
@wingspan1985 said in 35k for a LS Diamond Pack tonights flash sale, what could go wrong?!:
I paid 35k for Jimmy Rollins last night, not gonna pay 35k for Altuve tonight. Did manage to flip some cards and get Kemp back, so I got that going for me.
Nen for me...I might as well chuck the dice .

I presume today's reveal will be during the Feature Premiere......which tells me it will be a bigger one.
Like Lowell.......2007 WS MVP for my sawx.
The options:
Goldschimdt - Another 1st baseman
Verlander - In-play but wouldn't be a high enough overall to be usable with his pitch mix
Altuve - They have never given him his MVP card.....unless he pulls a Sosa and has a 20 homer month, this ain't happening
Betts - No.....He just got a 95 overall. This card would be a 96-97 max.
Alonso - Would want to save him for HR Derby
Story - In-play but would need to be exagerated with contact to be worthwhile
Judge- No....his live series is 94 overall

@wonderman2424 said in Trevor Story - May POTM:
If Story didn't have that stupid Topps Now flashback this would be incredibly obvious......Goldschmidt is the only other real option, but he's another 1st baseman.
Altuve still has the Astros problem......people would complain.
I say a 96-97 overall Story is plausible.
I don't think the "astros problem" will factor into it. People complained about rizzo, they will complain about goldy, and they will complain about story becsue his contact numbers will be in the 60s and he just got the topps now. It's either going to be altuve or a pitcher imo.
Story's fielding would go down to mid-gold at best, which would allow 80 plus contact a side.
Plus he'd be jumping up at least 5 in overall.

The roster update was adding in Andre Dawson to the exhibition legends.
This is not a drill.....a lefty with a stache....COULD IT BE!
Surprised no one has mentioned Pedroia....he's a cover boy.
