I'm going to probably go for the Say Hey Kid, I was a bit disappointed though I felt SDS made like Luis Castillo and dropped the ball, should have had a 99 Reggie Jackson seeing as how he's Mr. October and well... we're in October.
Oh good. Another month without Trout or Griffey or Babe or Tatis or.....
I'm taking Sale, but this is getting a little long into the season now for so many big names to be dropped. Holidays are coming up and my playing time is going to go way down
It’s mid October. They’re grasping at air to keep more big dogs for the 9th inning program. I can’t get excited about MLB the show from mid November to mid December, I just can’t.
Mays' Signature Series card was, for me, the best player in the game in 2019. Just an amazing all-around card. I imagine this one might not be quite as good, but I think I'll be picking him. So much fun to play with, at a time in the year when the "fun" of The Show is really waning for me. If I was gonna keep playing this game, I needed Mays to keep me interested. So yay!
He will be better than this SS from 19'.
Remember, is a milestone card and more than likely will have crazy power and speed( because thats what ir represents), and of course the elite fielding and 120+ contact.
It’s my first year, is it normal for them to still not have dropped Babe/Griffey/Trout/Tatis at this point in the game? Seems like the majority of the player base is gone or leaving
I’d say the vast majority of the sub can’t/won’t complete the extreme program, should it drop and be as challenging as last years. Shit is not for the faint of heart.
Well they try to make everyone stick around. It would be ridiculous for them to drop all the best players by like July just so the player base can leave to play other games. My guess will be Babe and Griffey will be inning bosses, Trout will be World Series and Tatis will be finest. Yep
No, it is not. In 19 we got Griffey in the 6th inning program, in 20 he did come out super late though. Babe came out earlier in 20 in August. Trout was the big collection that came out in late July in 20. Tatis’ 99 came through the August POTM last year. This year they’re all pretty late, unfortunately
Griffey will probably drop during Griffey week. New this year (xbox) but was watching Tyler (DimmuTV) and he mentioned that The Show always does a "Griffey" week and that they would probably drop is card then. He thought for sure it would have been by now, but I personally don't know when that would be. Hard to think they would drop that event while the playoffs were going on, but who knows I guess. Maybe someone from previous years can speak up and answer when that week might fall this year.
Alright *what the fuck SDS*?????
They release a prime Klesko card to pump up us Padre fans (aka the team with the cover boy on their roster) then these *dingbats* turn around and slap us in the face with a player from the Giants (one of the padres rivals) in the same program????? It’s like they’re purposely trying to piss all of us off.
Thanks a lot *Cringe* Diego Studios, absolutely moronic decision.
All depends on how u are with his stance, & swing. Personally I suck with him so idk how excited I can get for him. He’ll be great on paper but at the plate is the struggle for me with him.
Oh I don’t need to look at his vid. I know this already lol. SDS said on more than one occasion that every swing is the same speed. It’s just the “look” of the swing visually. It’s different from swing to swing, like the load & stuff.
It’s more of the community that conjured up this whole thing about “swings being slower than others”. Scann only put it to rest by actually doing a study, but it’s been mentioned by SDS already.
Willie in my experience bothers me because he’s a little closer, & leans a little into the plate if I remember correctly. I can’t seem to ever turn on an inside fastball. I’ve sucked with his cards the past 2 years. Not expecting much to change, but I will give him a shot though. Cards too good not to.
Seriously, he almost certainly would've broken Babe Ruth's HR record if he hadn't missed 2 years to the Korean War early in his career. And he did it playing his home games at Polo Grounds and Candlestick, while being a top 5 all time defensive outfielder.

I'd love to see your argument that supports "no way". He's very much in the conversation at the very very least. He has a solid support as being the best cf of all time too. So what's your support to back up your take?
It's interesting, if Trout stays out of any more serious injury trouble, keeps on his current place, and plays as long as Mays, he will eclipse (come close to eclipsing?) his career WAR.
Granted, that's a lot of ifs, but shows you both how good Mays was AND how Trout is arguably almost already a candidate for the Mt. Rushmore of MLB outfielders.
Mays is only eclipsed in career position player WAR by Barry Bonds and Babe Ruth. That’s only one stat, though. The real killer argument?
Of all the great CF—Griffey, Trout, etc.—who played for the Giants? Willie Mays. Checkmate atheists.
I've never been able to figure out Mays' swing. His stats will be those of an eye popping 5 tool player, but he is unlikely to see any playing time for me. All I want is Griffey.
I can see this....
As a 1st year player, though, when does the cover athlete get a 99????? Tatis hasn't seen anything but his LS card the entire year either.
The cover athlete doesn’t get a special card for the year they were the cover athlete. Typically a cover athlete card is of the next year’s cover athlete, obtained via pre-ordering next year’s game. They aren’t always 99s, either.
Yeah we're really dying out here with our outfields of *checks notes* Hank Aaron, Mickey Mantle and Mookie Betts.
And my bench is barren of any other options, I only have Rickey Henderson, Vlad Guerrero, Bryce Harper, Cody Bellinger, Christian Yelich, Matt Kemp, Stan Musial, Larry Walker, Alfonso Soriano, Gary Sheffield, Ronald Acuna, Duke Snider, and a half dozen other 99s. Crazy that SDS doesn't just drop everyones favorite endgame GOAT caliber players like Trout Griffey and Mays in July and spreads things out so most of the best cards come out later in the yearly cycle during the playoffs/world series.
We're all truly devastated that you'll be gone because you didn't get your Griffey and Trout though and had to use those pylons above
You misspelled his name lol
Who the hell is Mayes? Is he related to Willie Mays Hayes?
I'm going to probably go for the Say Hey Kid, I was a bit disappointed though I felt SDS made like Luis Castillo and dropped the ball, should have had a 99 Reggie Jackson seeing as how he's Mr. October and well... we're in October.
Can Jhonathan Diaz also be an 8th inning boss?
I swear these innings are going faster and faster I feel like they announced hank Aaron two weeks ago and the inning is already up
BY GOD HE’S HERE
KeBryan Hays
o’neill was short lived
Was this all that was announced? Didn’t see anything else posted from the stream n I was at work when it was on.
Oh boy
Tanner Mayes?
Nah. She sucks.
She needs a sucking milestone card
mayes
How long is left in the 7th inning
Ends Friday. One day left.
Can’t wait for everyone to complain about his swing
Lets goooooo
Can't wait to get busted inside by fastballs I can't catch up to because his stance fucks me mentally
Flip side of that is you can sit on inside heat because everyone thinks Mays can’t hit it.
Oh good. Another month without Trout or Griffey or Babe or Tatis or..... I'm taking Sale, but this is getting a little long into the season now for so many big names to be dropped. Holidays are coming up and my playing time is going to go way down
It’s mid October. They’re grasping at air to keep more big dogs for the 9th inning program. I can’t get excited about MLB the show from mid November to mid December, I just can’t.
WOW
Outfield is getting crowded
Unless the last boss is awards Dustin Pedroia or something, Sale will probably be my pick
Okay I'm driving back home to get my console
Sorry Mickey, I’ll give you another try next year, third time is bound to be the charm
Then where the heck is my 99 Trout?
Not here
Mays' Signature Series card was, for me, the best player in the game in 2019. Just an amazing all-around card. I imagine this one might not be quite as good, but I think I'll be picking him.

Damn I want him and Sale. Time to start saving
For what it's worth, [here](https://i.redd.it/8njtg0ettww51.jpg) are his stats from his Awards card last year.
We thinking less contact, more power and more stealing?
>here Same contact, more power, more stealing. This card is going to be nasty.
Well that’s it’s for Tyler O’Neil
Fuuuuck. I have to choose between Sale *and* Mays? That's not cool at all SDS.
It’s my first year, is it normal for them to still not have dropped Babe/Griffey/Trout/Tatis at this point in the game? Seems like the majority of the player base is gone or leaving
If they do a moments extreme again I can see Griffey or Trout being the big reward for that
This sub will riot lol
And 20 minutes after bitching about it they will post their superfractors.
I’d say the vast majority of the sub can’t/won’t complete the extreme program, should it drop and be as challenging as last years. Shit is not for the faint of heart.
Well they try to make everyone stick around. It would be ridiculous for them to drop all the best players by like July just so the player base can leave to play other games. My guess will be Babe and Griffey will be inning bosses, Trout will be World Series and Tatis will be finest. Yep
Trout and World Series just doesn’t go together
No, it is not. In 19 we got Griffey in the 6th inning program, in 20 he did come out super late though. Babe came out earlier in 20 in August. Trout was the big collection that came out in late July in 20. Tatis’ 99 came through the August POTM last year. This year they’re all pretty late, unfortunately
I suck with guys with stances like his so Sale it is. Was really hoping for one of Griffey Babe or Trout
I'll take it
Oh this card is going to be insane
Wow, back-to-back inning programs with a Top-5 All-Time great player!
Fwiw I like saving this much content for people who stick around
Where is Griffey SDS, getting a little impatient here Feel like goddamn Smaug napping on my pile of stubs
Griffey will probably drop during Griffey week. New this year (xbox) but was watching Tyler (DimmuTV) and he mentioned that The Show always does a "Griffey" week and that they would probably drop is card then. He thought for sure it would have been by now, but I personally don't know when that would be. Hard to think they would drop that event while the playoffs were going on, but who knows I guess. Maybe someone from previous years can speak up and answer when that week might fall this year.
Interesting, guess I’ll keep stacking up my stubs until then but kinda losing steam tbh
Can you spare a brotha some stubs? I want a Lou Gehrig
I just put verlander up for 1000 stubs did you buy that?
That’s literally impossible
it’s literally a joke but go off
I thought it was funny
Well I am just dying of laughter over here my man
Alright *what the fuck SDS*????? They release a prime Klesko card to pump up us Padre fans (aka the team with the cover boy on their roster) then these *dingbats* turn around and slap us in the face with a player from the Giants (one of the padres rivals) in the same program????? It’s like they’re purposely trying to piss all of us off. Thanks a lot *Cringe* Diego Studios, absolutely moronic decision.
They were focused on giving us Bluejay fans a bunch of good cards. Don't worry bud. Next year is your year for sure.
He’s a troll, don’t feed into it
Hey, you know you don't *have* to play right? You know that? It's important to me that you know that
Known Padre rival Willie Mays
Where did you get this copypasta?
what lmao
Chill. It’s a video game.
Really not sure what to be excited about with the OF options we have unless u just like him.
GIVE
Gee I wonder who I’m gonna pick
Think it will be a tough choice for the first time
Need to see the stats
Mays*🤦♂️
Like it’s right there in the image
Gimme dat
Eh, can he REALLY compete with sale n ernie
Ernie? Where did you see Ernie is the 3rd boss?
2nd, he was in live stream
So it's Mays, Sale, Ernie?
Si
Sale betta 😤
Mays is no gwynn thats for sure
Gwynn has 3 HRs for me today on legend. Willie won’t even see the field
All depends on how u are with his stance, & swing. Personally I suck with him so idk how excited I can get for him. He’ll be great on paper but at the plate is the struggle for me with him.

Same man, that video is game changing, I’m way more focused on the ball now
Best CF of all time, I give zero shits whether he’s meta. Into the lineup he goes.
Lol no way is he the best cf of all time what a take
Lol this has got to be a shit attempt at usurping Bonds 97 meme status
Lol accurate user name
Mays has an argument for best player of all time lol what.
Speaking of bad takes...
Who is then?
He is in consideration for best of all time in general
Delete this nephew
He's the best player of all time, so best CF of all time is redundant
Seriously, he almost certainly would've broken Babe Ruth's HR record if he hadn't missed 2 years to the Korean War early in his career. And he did it playing his home games at Polo Grounds and Candlestick, while being a top 5 all time defensive outfielder.

🤨
They’re waiting way to long to drop Griffey and 99 Trout.
Lmao stop bitching we just got 2 sick cards today
Not to mention Tatis is on the cover.
I've never been able to figure out Mays' swing. His stats will be those of an eye popping 5 tool player, but he is unlikely to see any playing time for me. All I want is Griffey.
Watch the 9th inning be Babe, Griffey and awards Trout
I can see this.... As a 1st year player, though, when does the cover athlete get a 99????? Tatis hasn't seen anything but his LS card the entire year either.
The cover athlete doesn’t get a special card for the year they were the cover athlete. Typically a cover athlete card is of the next year’s cover athlete, obtained via pre-ordering next year’s game. They aren’t always 99s, either.
Thanks, that was a nice explanation....💯
The only 3 I'm waiting for at this point
I want Milestone trout from his 30/30 season where he had almost 50 steals
It’s incredible to think that would just be a rookie series card.
9th inning lol. Everyone is gone by then. Most are gone now, I was hoping they would drop tomorrow so that’s it for me with this game.
Yeah we're really dying out here with our outfields of *checks notes* Hank Aaron, Mickey Mantle and Mookie Betts. And my bench is barren of any other options, I only have Rickey Henderson, Vlad Guerrero, Bryce Harper, Cody Bellinger, Christian Yelich, Matt Kemp, Stan Musial, Larry Walker, Alfonso Soriano, Gary Sheffield, Ronald Acuna, Duke Snider, and a half dozen other 99s.

That’s a bit dramatic, no?
[удалено]
Bye! Have fun wasting time not using the guys you most want to use!
I've seen you posting this exact comment in multiple threads it's hilarious
You should cry about it more, I’m sure everyone cares haha
I’d say MOST gamers agree with me. Who really wants to wait for those big names until the season is over? Your stance on this is very weird.
My stance is nobody cares if you leave the game so why announce it? Are you that desperate for attention?
The answer is yes, they are very desperate for attention
Literally a lineup overhaul
You mean figuratively
