I think I like the $12.39 card better, mainly because of power and 680+ PAs.

I was thinking the same thing, after reviewing the new card. But, in RH heavy leaning parks, like Minute Maid or Hilltop, I can see the new Hornsby being a real favorite. The new Hornsby card is also a little worse defensively, a little slower and a non factor, stolen base wise (not that anyone took Hornsby for his base stealing), has a higher negative clutch factor and, as you mentioned, can be injured, unlike the other Hornsby cards. However, the new Horsnby card will hit in to fewer GBAs, for those that care.
