ATG Managers - make sure to jump over to the ATG CARD DISCUSSION forums and debate, suggest, nominate your favorite or most overlooked ATG player.

Best way is to find the forum of your Franchise of choice and voice your opinion. If you've previously signed up to be an ambassador for a franchise, great get in there and stoke the fire! Anyone interested in taking a more active role can join as an ambassador, three per franchise is the magic number. You don't have to be an ambassador to share your opinion.

Please check out the list so far, looking for 1 Batter and 1 Pitcher from each qualifying franchise (read below).

OH AND PLEASE DON'T POST CARD ADD SUGGESTIONS OR OPINIONS HERE...GO TO THE CARD DISCUSSION FORUMS!
THANKS!

Here's the direction for this 25 card add.
1. A balanced add with at least 10 Batters and 10 Pitchers with room to account for ties in the voting.
2. Disallow the franchises that placed 3 or more cards in the Summer Add. So no A's, Red Sox, White Sox, Tigers, Pirates and Padres. And let's add in the Yankees as well as we know how well represented they are in ATG.
3. Take the vote getters 51-100 from our Summer Add (leaves us with 40 after filtering)
4. Add back in the Cy Young and MVP's (yes that means Peavy gets back on the list). This trumps #2
5. Add back in Andy Pettitte, I'm not a Yankee fan but he just deserves a card
6. Each franchise ambassador not listed in #2 above nominates 1 Batter and 1 Pitcher by Tues, Nov 1 (or sooner)

The above formula will give us 50 batters and 50 pitchers to vote on. We'll vote on 10 each to allow for ties.

Below is the current list of nominees based on the above formula.
