Interesting Morgan card but 15 game injury risk. Makes it interesting.

Rburgh: good field, no hit reserve IF.

In regards to the fanta-sim cards....I'm not okay with them. Arky Vaughan's line in a 100 mil league with 9 games to go in Sportsman '20. This is insane........

585 152 235 19 10 50 156 111 68 3 .402 .498 .725 1.223

Yeah he hit 19 homers in real life. He has 50. Oh yeah he's hitting .402 with a 1.223 OPS. This is insane

Oh yeah, he's a LH hitting shortstop. This is insane.

Arky Vaughan=Jose Canseco of strat :wink:

Despite this, I love you Bernie and think you're doing a great job. Thank you!!

BTW, I know Vaughan hit a mean .385 in 1935 so he should clearly be a pretty good average hitter (lol). Still league average was .279 that year and Vaughan only hit 19 homers. That sholdn't translate to .400 and 55 homers......

I can't be alone on this one. I want 1935 Arky but not one that compromises the game like this one does.

You are not alone on the Arky sentiments. There was a huge debate about it when it was released. There was a very long thread on it so doubt anyone, especially me has anything new to say that has not been said.

Look forward to having that and most of the fantasim cards replaced with real super advanced versions. That is especially true of pitchers that have been plucked. I will be glad when we can start getting new pitchers cards that come from the super advanced sets, or cadillac seasons as some like to call them. :D

His new card is an awesome hitting card - however, his speed is 11 - So basically as he got older he got faster? HIs '57 card is a 15 and his '59 card is a 14. What gives?
