I see the vast majority of players all got price hikes

Some had nominal price cuts of like 40 cents....have yet to find a SINGLE player with a $1.00 price drop.

Can anybody find and post ANY player that dropped AT LEAST 51 cents????

If not, then the repricing was strictly inflationary and didn't do anything to us the previously non used players.

If you set up an ATG9 league pre-1900 players like Silver King and Duffy will NOT be able to be used by anyone joining....

So if your intent is to include Silver and Duffy and their ilk please choose the ATG9 All Eras set.

If you pick a different set than the commissioner you will NOT be able to join and then you'll have to change your draft card....and probably have to have to re-do your card since when you change sets it erases your card!!!

Food for thought.

There are a few leagues that have already formed and ALL of them are using the ATG 9 sets without all eras....so those leagues will have no Silver King or Duffy.


I am not loving that they made the main default set without those players. I would have preferred the other way around. I can only presume Barnstormers will be of the ATG9 set without all eras.

Looks to me like overall there has been an attempt to re-norm the standard league to 100m to get basically the same team as you could get at 80m

He was one of the first I check on.....it didn't drop enough however...I will still not use him....I'm disappointed in the fact that significantly over priced and under utilized players didn't drop much in price

Most interesting to me at first glance is two RF I consider nearly equal Bryce Harper 11.53 vs Larry Walker 10.85 have their salaries reversed, a reflection of their desirability in live drafts, Harper now 10.49 and Walker is 11.26

was hoping with all the new cards, they'd at least add all the MVP years cards (Larkin 95) and Cy young winner cards.

Can't even play the 90s game and get Larkin's MVP year...hmmmmm

That is my take...which does little to nothing about the issue of having 3,000 or so over priced cards that will still NOT get used except in franchise specific theme leagues.
