Alex Bregman and Aristides Aquino have been named PotM for August. So I’m assuming boxes soon? I didn’t see anything announcing the rookies or pitchers yet.
Yes and no. Rendon doesn’t get nearly enough love and was deserving of PoTM; I would have voted for him, much like I would vote Trout for AL MVP every year. However, Aquino broke the NL rookie record for HR in one month and unfortunately, flash will always win these days - even when it’s wrong. So yes, a snub, but an expected snub.
This is a complete guess, but with the POTW and POTM not being in FR, the Royale WOH prize will be one POTW and one POTM box per cycle. I would be stoked for that actually.
3B is the only position where I don't have a D10 player, so I'm eagerly awaiting Bregman too. Last month I went crazy on PotM boxes - as I got each hitter and starter (not relievers) I leveled them to D8 and then let the duplicate pulls bring them up to D10. This approach seemed to provide really good value as I got roughly 60K-70K worth of bxp value (50K-60K in leveling savings plus about 10K for the dupe pull) for my 1400 gold. Plus the PotM boxes for July were loaded with pxp!

Yeah, I would love that actually. Wednesdays are back to being pretty easy again, so I could cycle a bunch of times and probably make out like a bandit in that case.
I figure they maybe release them when the event starts along with a keeper boost. Basically a ratings jump all at once. Or i could just be wrong which is probably more likely
Current POTMs should be good thru at least the 6th if there is 30 days minimum. How much overlap has there been in the past ? I don’t recall ever releasing that box on the weekend but who knows.
This is strange, no? Potw available in store thru end of day ... tomorrow?? Weren't they gone this morning altogether? 100% certain they were not available beyond BG event day last week.
They are in the store now, but I think the XPlayerX guy is because Aquino was the Player and Rookie of the month and that was the slot for NL Rookie of the month.
