Does anyone happen to have a screenshot of the July PoTM box info screen? I could have sworn Alvarez was supposed to drop to 370, yet he is at 350. I could definitely be wrong though, lol. I really need to screenshot these going forward!
Cole went to max 370, but his stuff rating didn't change from when he was 350. I am guessing they either updated arm and ctl or they just changed the max number without changing the supporting stats.
@COWPILEY Alvarez has a high speed rating, which is why his hit/power numbers suffer a little bit. Still, after they updated him, it definitely makes a difference, though it only increased his power rating:

That is a beautiful power bump, though.

@retirepujols Seriously, when it showed him as 399/319, I was thinking “great, he turned into a slightly juiced version of Bronx Bombers Didi from the most recent Monday WoH Classic!”
Side note: I really need to go find something to disagree with of yours, all this agreeing with you this morning is becoming weird 🤣
Cole for me went from undisputed Ace to my 3rd starter with 399 stuff (I pulled both current PotM SP). I have a pretty gaping hole in RH finishers after Hiura reverted, though Longoria is improving (only need a metric fuckton of pxp, currently only P6). The only guys I haven’t pulled in 17 PotM boxes are Chapman and Aquino and while Aquino wouldn’t be perfect he would do quite well on Monday vs Price until I could find/level a 400+ RHB with the skills necessary.
...Was hoping he would still be useful longer. Maybe I’ll get lucky and get him again this month.
I hear ya, I’ve opened 11 August PoTM boxes so far trying to snag that super deluxe (and WoH killer) version of Yordan but went 2/11, getting Bregman and Vazquez. At least Bregman helped me finish top 10 yesterday 🤷♂️
Maybe not so pronounced in gold. Not much to choose between him (234/219) and max 350 McMahon (230/210) for hit and power.
At Diamond 10, the difference is noticeable: Alvarez 399/374 and McMahon 392/359. However, would have been nice if Alvarez had lower speed, that’s for sure. His is 260, while McMahon is only 187.
@retirepujols I mean technically I disagree with the sentiments of your username, as I thoroughly enjoy Pujols’ contract greatly hindering the Angels’ payroll each year 😁
No Alvarez but I did get a lot of new toys (Bregman, Clevenger, Acquino, Vazquez) plus Belle and Goodwin from FR. Not a bad haul but I’m broke ! Next 2x gold weekend can’t come soon enough ;-)

Let's save that here for next month 😂
