well said


We do get new players voted in with each add. However, for 25.1 we are going to do a 'no card in set' round of nominations. That will guarantee getting 25 currently uncarded players in the add.

Note on Ripken. That card was nominated a bunch and never received much support. It just didn't move the needle at all for most. As Andy noted, mediocre offense combined with a 2. If he was a 1, I'm sure it would have been voted in at some point.

That’s a fun idea. It should be a very competitive nomination.

I also think we can lower the plate appearances just a tiny bit. Plenty of full time platoon players get 275-299 plate appearances.
