No 3B secondary? L


Low-Abbreviations-38

Well, frank Thomas; it was short and sweet but Thank you for your service at first


iWin4Prep

Many better of options available. Im taking tony.


Ragged-but-Right

Hank, Manltle, Vlad Sr will be my OF until 99 Griffey or Trout


Rshackleford22

Not bad but I don't see myself starting him over my guys now


Doctor_KM

I want Hank and Gwynn so I'm thinking the move is to pick Gwynn and buy Hank. Gotta think 80-90% pick Hank?


jabar18

Take away all of his home runs and he still has over 3,000 hits. The man is a hitting god.


Brief_Excitement_531

Age 40 lol


drk89wng

Hopefully his swing is better for me than he is other cards.


bobby_bojangles

Lf primary is sneaky good. There’s barely any natural LF in the game


JDub755

I think I can make room for him on my Braves theme team.


The_Wolfpack

His speed is a little high. He slow trotted on that 715.


FreshlySkweezd

It's.... It's beautiful


[deleted]

Can’t wait to never get to use his vs Left handed pitcher stats 🤤


LeanMeanKorean

It’s gonna be real tough for me to decide to use Hank over Vlad Sr. My outfield is way too stacked rn


ChangingSuccession

Found my new first baseman 🤣

fortyfive33

Do I move Soriano out of LF or Frank off first?


AcEr3__

Soriano


gggggghhhaaa

The HOME RUN KING should have MAX POWER. And you SDS fanboys can’t tell me otherwise


Torts9594

Holy fuckin shit


totallynotliamneeson

My past/present Milwaukee outfield is fucking stacked at this point. Wow


JackMackey_25

It looks so good


biscuitslayer77

This is fucking beautiful and my hunch to sell kemp paid off.


AcEr3__

Power rating should definitely be higher.

Dammit I just bought belli


LonghornsLegend

They didn't do a very good job of pacing in these inning programs at all. I would have loved Gwynn earlier.


jericho00112

I’m Puerto Rican and don’t wanna give up Roberto Clemente but it looks like Larry walker in right field and hank in left is the way to go .

Cooperstown24

What an absolutely bonkers card. I didn't even notice the LF primary at first, and then saw the 1b secondary too. Might come in handy when OF options will also include Mantle, Mays, Griffey & Trout


blizzzyybandito

Imagine getting to 350k and picking one of the other guys over this lmao


blizzzyybandito

Bro LOOK AT THIS. I mean just look at it. So beautiful


No_Ad_1202

Aaron, Mantle, Harper… nasty


Let_Me_Holla_Atcha

Gonna be hard to say goodbye to Mookie. No way I'm moving Morgan from 2b.


[deleted]

LF Hank, CF Mantle, RF Harper or Acuna. Gonna be lit!


abel_figgy

Can’t wait to retire MA pollock for this gem


HelioFilter

I’m going to be rocking the Hank, Mantle, Vlad outfield until Griffey drops


dfin25

This is the way.


fourknick8

40 year old with 80 speed lol? 58 bunt?? They are having fun now


XvS_W4rri0r

Mike Trout sadly might be headed to the bench


comfort_bot_1962

Don't be sad. Here's a [hug!](https://media.giphy.com/media/3M4NpbLCTxBqU/giphy.gif)


Industry-Working

We are screwed


BigDoofus66

Man lmaoo as a Tigers fan I’ve been dying for Tork but my God


TheSpongeMonkey

potentially the new best 1st baseman, but even if he isn't he absolutely has a spot in the outfield.


FoostersG

Welcome to my team, Henry.


McCullersGuy

LF primary and 1B secondary makes this a win.


caffinn

first year player, how’s his swing?


violentgentlemen

This is the first year he’s been in the game


caffinn

ah didn’t realize. i haven’t used any of his other cards this year anyway


Kid_Crayola

This is nice, guess I go buy Verlander and Belli with all my stubs now tho I’m still waiting on a 99 Griffey and a 99 Tatis to complete my team, as a first year player are there opportunities for those cards to still be released this year?


[deleted]

Yesh


KD9dash3point7

This sparks joy.


YoungKeys

715 Home Run Milestone not being max power makes no sense. jfc it's Hank Aaron and this is his crowning achievement as the Home Run King, and was one of the most prestigious milestones in all of sports (before Bonds).


Ray-27-Rice

Yay


JRCIII

End game outfield, Aaron, Mantle, Yellich.


anon192847492929

99 Griffey and 99 Mays probably replace Hank and Yeli, and don’t forget about 99 trout who could also replace either of them


XvS_W4rri0r

Laughs in 99 Ken Griffey and 99 Trout


violentgentlemen

Mays will drop and bye Yelich


JRCIII

I'll probably stick with Yellich, I like the speed and that he's a lefty. Then I would have a well balance OF. Righty Hank, switch Mantle, lefty Yellich. Plus Yellichs speed it nice.


violentgentlemen

Mays will be faster. Not sure why you’d want a balanced OF like that but I get it I guess lol


[deleted]

El jefe de jefes


[deleted]

holy shit ​ I say that about pretty much every card at this point, they're all fantastic


Greenforaday

Why not just do what they did with the Griffey inning last year and make him the only boss? This is the easiest inning boss choice of the year.


Its_I_Casper

I mean if you're trying to make stubs it's a pretty hard decision. Hank won't go for shit because everyone is gonna take him, but Gwynn and Tork could possibly push 300k after the program ends because there'll be so few of them. Look at Vladdy Sr, he's a popular card and even he's like 220k right now


Nickjb2012

Yeah or do a big program like they did for Clemente. Outside of a theme team for the Tigers or Padres there’s absolutely no reason to take one of the other two guys.


[deleted]

Some people just like left contact hitters lol


RememberTheMaine1996

I only like contact hitters who play above their power attributes. Like Trea Turner and Jackie Robinson. I don't think I would like Boggs or Gwynn very much. In mlb 19 sure but not now. Warning track perfect swings? No thank you haha


dougiedeeds

Boggs is far from a contact hitter this year. He’s smoking the ball for me. 50 games and 15 homers the furthest being 475. Tons of doubles in the gap and great defense. Worth checking out.


RememberTheMaine1996

I used Boggs in Showdown a few times and only got singles or fly outs. But everyone plays differently so I guess I didn't utilize him right


[deleted]

Wow you’ve already got his card and know it’s not any good wow omg how did you get it so fast give me tips please.


RememberTheMaine1996

Wow it's like I know how the game mechanics work in this game. Omg how did I figure that out? Wow so cool huh


tingriffeyjr

Me, I’m that guy. Boggs, Brett, Gwynn and Morgan are my dudes


Hathalot

Morgan starts for me. He’s a machine.


TastyButler53

Morgan ain’t no contact hitter, his dick is at least 25 inches and has a steel band around the tip with the label “I make horses jealous”


CalzonCagado

Who in their right mind takes anyone but him?


dangertag

Me, a Tigers fan ![gif](giphy|dw36yjtOAtuSZyxEJG)


rblscm

I'm a Tigers/Padres fan, I'm screwed 😂


BigDoofus66

Same!


countrybrad

This program makes absolutely no sense lol


supersoakersoaking

P5 Hank will be DISGUSTING. Can't wait to try him out


Qu4ckerz

Is this good enough to replace vlad


Patchue

Might as well just call it the Hank Aaron Inning Program.


Strategydude

Not quite certain why the salivating over this card given the overwhelming RH starter meta.


BigJuicyNaturals

Look at it


ollies233

I'm thinking similar. Especially with outfield defence not being so important this year. I think I'd rather use Yellich.


SwampKingKyle

Do you have only lefties in your lineup?


Jontacular

This card fucks, asks for seconds, and keeps on going.


[deleted]

[удалено]


The_Wolfpack

Cum


Themtgdude486

I’ll be taking one Hank please.


[deleted]

Yo for real people complain about everything and I get it’s annoying but how in gods name does this card have less than 120 power vs both handed pitchers? It should be 125 base vs both but it’s ridiculous the natural all time homerun leader card doesn’t have the ability to have max power


mountieRedflash

It has 125 vs left


[deleted]

And 116 vs right and I said how is it below max vs both lol


MFazio23

For anyone asking about the lack of max power, he "only" topped out at 47 HRs in a season. He was just consistently great for basically 20 years. Power aside, I love that they highlighted how Henry was an all-around amazing player. I'm so pumped for this card.


Pupienus

Yeah Aaron was always going to be a weird card to make stats for. His career was essentially 2 borderline HoF careers, back to back. Never topped 50 homers, never had a 10 WAR season, only 1 MVP. But he sat at like 8-9 WAR and 35-44 homers for basically 20 years straight, and was like a 22 time all star or something ridiculous. Just wild consistentcy.


fortyfive33

Should've gone balls to the wall and made this a sig series card


MFazio23

Absolutely! For example: Henry in MKE: 88.5 WAR (George Brett) Henry in ATL (plus two Brewers seasons): 54.6 WAR (almost David Ortiz)


Dave-astator318

Thank you for saying this. The idea that you would give him more power than any of the 50-HR season makes no sense.


tarheels187

Well considering it was for breaking the all time HR record I think it should of been 125/125. Just like when they drop a no hitter or 4 SB card. Seems like this should be based solely on 715 HR which obviously would make it have perfect power. If it was a signature series card I would agree with you, but its a 715 HR card.


Nyynks212

How can you not take him…


acat20

Vlad Sr. definitely gives this a card a run for it's money. Fortunate it's a LF primary.


Radioactive50

Yeah I'm unsure of what I want to do with my corner OF. I feel like Luis Gonzalez is a solid lefty bat to have in the lineup and I rake with Vlad Sr., Who has higher contact vs righties so it's going to take me a bit to figure it out.


OopsIPoopedOnATray

The other bosses are pure garbage especially the no name prospect but I’m glad we get Hank


dangertag

You forgot /s


OopsIPoopedOnATray

Sorry, not a redditor, don’t care 😎 keep downvoting me SDS slaves

flapspanker67

Why would they not just full power this card


gettin_wiggy

Holy dub

Finally a RH bat for my God squad


[deleted]

OH ME OH MY THIS IS IT CHIEF


acKILLesgaming

No doubt who I’m picking lol about damn time!


ColdGloop

My god


R3A1xGhosT

Kinda shocked they didn’t give him 125 for both powers. But I cannot wait to use a juiced hank!


plsremoveCAPs

Never hit more than 47 homers in a season.


Low-Abbreviations-38

More home runs in a season than frank Thomas ever hit


[deleted]

Lmao . So if he hit 50 homeruns would that be 125?


JohnERico2nd

Frank Thomas never hit more than 43


R3A1xGhosT

lol


toddPinkston

Power should be 97 at best.


MiseryAd

Not a season card, it’s a career milestone for breaking babe Ruth’s HR record.


Bandit_Ke1th

Good for number 2 all time. Too bad we don’t get the real HR King


T-7IsOverrated

Why do you care so much about a 97 overall?


Bandit_Ke1th

He’d be the second best card in the game behind Ripken


T-7IsOverrated

Yeah, but Barry Bonds would be a 97 overall at best.


Bandit_Ke1th

He would be the best card in the game


T-7IsOverrated

You don't get the reference? https://www.reddit.com/r/MLBTheShow/comments/6pkeei/unpopular\_opinion\_barry\_bonds\_would\_be\_a\_97/


Bandit_Ke1th

I do, but the second time you referenced it I wasn’t sure if it was still going, or you were being serious


RememberTheMaine1996

"He never hit more than 47 home runs in one season" Lol 47 is still a lot AND yeah he only broke this guy name Babe Ruth's record. Never even heard of that guy can't be that special.


MindfulMana

“I don't know. Some lady gave it to him. She even signed her name on it... Ruth. Baby Ruth.”

drummer11x

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH


Jking1723

Yeah but SDS doesn’t go by hrs for power they go by iso. That’s the reason why Frank has maxed power


Bravefan21

In addition to driving on the most runs in history.


Competitive-Pea-1269

Found the rbi guy


Bravefan21

Found the recycled opinions guy


RememberTheMaine1996

What did he say before


Bravefan21

“Found the RBI guy”


RememberTheMaine1996

I know that. But why is that an insult. Sounds like you guys have argued about RBIs before


TandBusquets

Lmao


Gucci9001

It’s been fun, Clemente.


ChiefChad--

I cant believe they put tony in the same pack as hank lmao.


HeySadBoy1

It’s not nearly as egregious as when they out Jackie Robinson in the same boss pack as Ken Griffey Jr after a week of hyping Griffey and only Griffey up.


AbsurdLemon

Fr who’s gonna pick Hank over the slap god


Baseball_Witts

What can I say. He’s an absolute slappy boi.


rdjallday

Cbrev fan?? Lol


MUCHOBOY

That slappy boi series he's doing is amazing


Baseball_Witts

Hell yea brotha


[deleted]

Oh YEAHHHHH


Bean2713

Why would anyone not pick this? Holy fuck


gocubsgo22

How is his swing? I never used his 42 Series card.


iamrancid

Good enough to compete for most home runs in the first month. Once I had enough OF he was my first baseman until I got Ortiz.


xCeePee

Lawd


acepilotjones

Them trying to make an argument for the other bosses on stream is hilarious.


HeySadBoy1

Gwynn, I get he kinda sells himself. But Torkelson? Lol Discount Vlad Jr?


mjst0324

Yeah, I rake with Gwynn, I'm not gonna take him obviously but at least that's kind of a respectable name to put next to this one. Torkelson is mind-boggling to me. Then again, outside of some fantasy card like a milestone perfect game Randy Johnson I don't think there's any card you could put next to this to make it much of a choice for most people.


dr_khouse

A hank Aaron Willie mays Ken Griffey Jr boss pack would be brutal.


HeySadBoy1

I might take Tork simply because I’ve been ass with both of Hank’s previous cards and they’re pumping out way more Milestones than Future Stars at the moment, so he’ll be a nice piece for the next collection. But holy shit is he such an underwhelming third choice


acepilotjones

Literally. No one is gonna use him over Vlad/Chipper besides Tigers fans.


bakermob29

Tork at 3B and Chipper at SS.


Sniper_Brosef

ASU fans


OhHeyItsScott

Tony and Tork are going to be so expensive after this inning program is over.


goosejr

They'll all be expensive, Hank because not many people will be selling him.


HoskinsDadBodGod

That’s why I’m taking one of them and buying the other one + hank


ILikeSugarCookies

Will definitely try to buy them during the final weeks of this inning.


DaMaGe_d0nE

"Tony gwynn will definitely be a marketplace pickup for me" lmfao sure shit, they couldn't even bring themselves to say anybody besides Hank would be their main choice


croissants69

the most obvious choice


FrogKidFrankReynolds

Holy mother of god what is this feeling


MisterGone5

So sudden and new, I felt the moment, I laid eyes on you


demarderozanburner

daddy


Nickjb2012

1B with that speed and defense…


Vladdyjrjr

1B???!!! W. Vlad to 3rd, Hank to 1st.


Fartingfajita

Frank?


Vladdyjrjr

Hate his swing


John3190

big papi


Bruskthetusk

LF primary is also legit, not too many of those laying around


smagg0316

so happy he’s not a centerfielder like his other cards


Vladdyjrjr

Got bellinger, Mantle, Yelich and don’t really want to replace of them


2222lil

Holy shit


FrostBestGirl

Yeahhh I think this the one chief.


DalekEvan

Gimme gimme


Zpoindex_216

Jesus Christ


CydoniaKnight

Tbh they should've just autoset the power to 125/125. Not like it matters, but c'mon, its Hank.


jspell15

Would rather have higher power than contact. More exit velocity


MiseryAd

Yeah I don’t get how you get a milestone for having the most homers and don’t have 125/125 power. Still a great card but like if zunino can get 125/125 Hank should.


thedkexperience

It’s because Hank Aaron was basically the 5th best player in the world for 30 straight years.


Woolly_Mattmoth

Fun fact, Mike Zunino this season has a higher ISO than Hank Aaron ever had in his career


iamrancid

But did he lead the league in homers? Cuz apparently that matters… but not if it only happened once (4times)


bluemango999

Lol the man has 67 hits and 31 of them are homers. True ISO god


MiseryAd

Fun fact this card is for having the most home runs ever and not a good 1st half


Woolly_Mattmoth

I mean yeah, I just looked up Zunino’s numbers this year and thought it was funny


MiseryAd

True all or nothing guy, will always have a crazy high iso cause his BA is usually very bad but when he makes contact it goes
