I am excited about exactly zero of these cards... I will check back in six months for the next lame batch of 30 cards.

I always defend Strat O-Matic but I don't understand why adding 30 cards takes months. They could add 100 cards a month and that would still be pretty slow and lame.

What??????????????????????????????????????

Lou Gehrig with an injury on the card!!!!!!!!!!!

I always defend Strat O-Matic but I don't understand why adding 30 cards takes months.

Henceforth part of the problem ---
instead of helping to try and hold them to doing better.
they tend to respond when the community decides to get together and speak --
not so much when people don't.

It's fascinating that 2012 Jake McGee was added, with his 45 career saves. In other words, 2 fewer than Zack Britton had in 2016, when he allowed 4 runs in the entire year.
