2019 PLAYER WISH LIST

DeuceDeuce Registered Users, Member 61 Posts
I figured I'd go down this road early on, just in case GLU feels like granting a few wishes.

LEGENDS:
C. Yogi Berra
1B. Lou Gehrig
2B. Jackie Robinson
3B. Cal Ripkin Jr.
SS. Derek Jeter
OF. Ken Griffey Jr. (emphasis on JUNIOR)
OF. Barry Bonds
OF. Ty Cobb
SP. Greg Maddux
RP. Mariano Rivera

OTHER Ideas:
3,000 HIT CLUB Box (Biggio, A-Rod, Palmeiro, Gwynn, Musial)
3,000 STRIKE OUT CLUB Box (Clemens, Carlton, Schilling, Smoltz, P. Martinez)
Gone But Not Forgotten Box (feat. players who died before their time)
MLB Veterans Box (feat. players who served in the military)
JUICED Box (feat. players who chased the HR record)
NEW Stadiums (feat. iconic MLB stadiums)

Who would you like to see added to the game?

Disclaimer: Yes, I know there are restrictions due to licensing, but maybe some of these players can wiggle their way into the game.

    Bonds will not happen. It's contractual. He is not included in the MLBPA license and Glu would have to negotiate with him (and pay him) separately.

    @Deuce you know that your "OTHER IDEAS" section just gave them an idea for 34 more versions of Trout this year right? :trollface:

    @Houmy well, if they're willing to add a couple of new legends into the mix, I think I'm okay with 34 versions of Trout. haha.

    They should do fictional players like a Major Leagues box. Could you imagine that Eddie Harris snot ball? Whitey Ford aint got nuthin' on that. 

    Or a Sandlot box.

    If they can do an "Animals" box they can do this too imo.

    I totally agree with this. Whole different licensing ballgame, though. At the same time, I can see them making more money with additional features like this.

    @Deuece agreed, and didn't think about that!
  • DeuceDeuce Registered Users, Member 61 Posts
    Also, wouldn't it be cool if you could make your Custom Legend the mascot for whatever team you choose (ie. choose the Astros, and your custom legend is an animated Orbit)?

    For my part I would love to see a Shoeless Joe ATG (hence my avatar) but that will probably never happen for the same reason we won't see a Pete Rose. Who knows, maybe if they add a "forum addict" achievement then GLU will throw me a bone with a maxed custom ATG that I can name Shoeless Joe :wink:

    My favorite moment in baseball history is when a homerun bounced off Canseco's head:
