Again, a quick improvement would be to add some full, modern teams to the set.. Please keep us informed if you make progress here.. I know a lot of time and effort is invested in the individual player add cycles.. but this problem, does not get fixed without a path to getting full team loads.. maybe just a few at a time, start with the franchises like the White Sox that don't have a base team to work with.. thanks


Thanks again for the input. I do appreciate the need for the full team adds; it has been a priority of mine. I will continue to work on this with Strat and hopefully we can get some modern teams added to enhance the set.

We're all entitled to our opinions, and on a topic like this nobody is right and nobody is wrong, so I hope you understand my position when I strenuously disagree to adding more scrubs. We have too many completely irrelevant players already. The card set is called "All-Time Greats", not "All-Time Scrubs".

You're missing the point.

When playing theme leagues as teams, you need $.50 players for your squad.
It sucks when teams have $.75-$2m scrubs to fill out a team.

I believe that ATG started as all-time great TEAMS...and I strenuously disagree with your disagreement.

We need the lower priced cards for franchise leagues in the EXP-era. We will continue to add the 100 cards per year based on the community vote. Getting some additional teams added won't impact that at all. These team adds would bring in higher-priced cards as well. We have added a bunch of good cards via the team adds.

I agree. I am hesitant to play Franchise theme leagues for this reason.
