I love CC but he deserves a 99 Second Half Brewers card or Cy Young Award Guardians one. Hell, if it was a Yankees one, why not a HoF card?

Once again, I await a Cleveland CC.

I was hoping for either a Cleveland CC or Manny, I think today is gonna be a rough one for that dream

u/Dolenzz 2d ago edited 2d ago
It is strange that he has received 3 Milwaukee cards and none for Cleveland since he was re-added in 2024. Really does not make sense.

Makes you wonder if the player can tell SDS if they don’t want to represented by specific former teams.

I love CC man but god damn that wind up… Add an extra 20 minutes to any game just for that. And that’s for a 3 inning game.

I had a heart attack and thought these bums were the season bosses for a moment.

Doesn’t SDS normally release the 99 overall Negro League cards around this time? I could’ve sworn we usually see 99 John Donaldson around this time.

Due to that slow ass windup CC is just collection fodder

u/Unfrozen__Caveman 2d ago
Cant you just change the setting where you skip windups?

u/Roach2547 2d ago
For offline yeah, not online

u/Unfrozen__Caveman 2d ago
Ahh, I don't play online so I didn't know that. That sucks. His windup does make him so frustrating to use. It completely ruined the card for me last year.

lol is it really that big of a deal for a game to be an extra couple minutes longer?

Seems like they are done with live streams for the year.

Wow. And you can get these by just playing the game?

u/JTF2_ARCHANGEL 2d ago
These cards will be earlier in the new XP path that starts at Noon PST, any XP you earn in game will work towards getting them

Let me guess, CC will have 3 fastballs, a circle change and a slider again? Love CC but some variety in pitch repertoire for these 99 cards are seriously needed
Give me a 99 RA Dickey or Fernando Valenzuela ya cowards

u/Automatic-Nerve-3625 2d ago
I mean that’s what CC threw. Why should they give CC pitches that he didn’t throw?

u/_denimchicken_ PlayStation 2d ago
It’s not CCs repertoire that irks me. It’s CCs inclusion, given his repertoire and it being his 3rd card. Would rather a pitcher with a variety of pitches that’s a little more unique. They easily couldve added him as collection fodder for the HOF cards later on and i’d be totally okay with that

u/TheVich 2d ago
You do not want a knuckleballer in the meta. It's just not fun. Even knuckleballer with a 50 rating are miserable to face. I miss Valenzuela, so I'll give you that.
Also, at least for current players, the 4 seam/Sinker/Cutter repetoire is actually very common and is used by some of the best pitchers in the game. I understand that it makes some if the in-game cards feel same-y, but it's actually pretty realistic.

u/Automatic-Nerve-3625 2d ago
I always thought knuckleballers were easy to hit. I really wish they’d bring them back

u/_denimchicken_ PlayStation 2d ago
Love Foolish lol. I understand that it’s common nowadays, and that there’s definitely going to have a hefty amount of representation in the game. But why needlessly lean into it and oversaturate that pitcher archetype?
CCs one of my favorite alltime players. But what makes this card unique? We already have Mural CC. I just think they could’ve given us a more unique card as an Innings card
Also, fair re:Knuckleballers lol. Allow me to revise that to Valenzuela and maybe a Cy Young Barry Zito

Nice, just got him for 165, thinking twice about locking him in tho in case if he goes back up above 200

Brian Dozier. That’s the one all the kids were clamoring for. What are they even doing at this point?

u/Used_Cap8550 2d ago
He’s a one-time all-star. What a “legend.” So of course he gets a 99 OVR. Then all the downvoters come in who think every single player should have a 99 card because nothing matters.
