Hopes for AL/NL Central Legend

SupremeKingSupremeKing Registered Users, Member 24 Posts
Assuming that the next week’s boxes will be AL and NL Central, what 600 max legend would you like to see and what skills?

I’d love to see Roberto Alomar in ALC and Andre Dawson (favorite player as a kid) in NLC. I’d like both with some combination of MOB and/or Hot Hitter.

    Think Repeat players. They won’t be introducing new players for what appears to be the final week.

    I know how this works. That’s why I said “hopes” not “expectations.” Need something to do this weekend with no sports on TV and this weekend’s boxes being a waste.

    I hope for double hot hitter in a scarce position, like SS or 2B.... I'm feeling the hot hitter skill these days

    I believe this is the correct take.  I would say there is a low likelihood of it being brand new guys we've never seen.

    Using the rubric above....I would think these would be the candidates

    You can probably toss out anyone that has had a 560+ version


    Joe Morgan (2B)

    Kenny Lofton (OF)

    Ernie Banks (SS)

    Al Kaline (OF)

    Rod Carew (2B)

    Paul Molitor (DH)

    Torii Hunter (OF)

    Albert Belle (3B)

    Jim Edmonds (OF)

    Ken Griffey (OF)

    Chris Sabo (3B)

    Tony Perez (1B)

    Cecil Cooper  (1B) - already been at least two of these

    Orlando Cepeda (1B)

    Gary Gaetti (3B)

    Paul Konerko (1B)

    Ozzie Smith (SS) - did we see a 570 in Fan Rewards?

    Chuck Knoblauch (2B) - I know we had a 520, was there a 560?

    Darrel Porter (C)

    Andy VanSlyke (OF)

    Red Shoendienst (2B)

    Bill Freehan (C)

    Chet Lemon (OF)

    Omar Vizquel (SS)

    We've had 3B and OF coming out of our ears.  Lots of C recently too.  I would have laughed at you if you told me 6 weeks ago that I'd be saying this....but I could really use a 1B upgrade.  Given that GLU has given us a ton of "Babe Killers" and most 1B on that list are RH.....that's one I could see them doing.

    Like others have said though, I'd be thrilled to see 2B

    Couldn’t agree more.  I think most of us are tired of the 3B babe killer.

    There will be 4-5 new ones. 2 from boxes, 2 from woh (Monday & Wednesday), and gold reward (Tuesday/Wednesday). So there will be plenty to choose from. I’m hoping for a Visquel!

    Just so you guys don’t get too far ahead, I would take the game day by day. No one really knows when 20 when he released but if they do it like last year 19 will be cut off the day 20 is released. So there is no guarantee for a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or weekend event next week. I hope there is but just be prepared.

    Dawson would be sweet but Glu would probably list him as a Marlin or something. 

    Meanwhile, I have about 30k gold left looking exclusively for a suitably-skilled Ryne Sandberg.

    Players I would love to see: 
    Jason Giambi, Jeff Kent, AJ Pierzynski, Jim Thome, Miguel Tejada, Ichiro, Brett Boone, Aaron Boone, Bobby Abreu, Frank Thomas, Paul Konerko, Sammy MFing Sosa. And last but not least TOD HELTON! 
    I don’t care if most of these guys juiced, this was the juicing era, make a skill that adds 30% power to the player, i don’t care, get it done!

    Ha!  Sign me up for a “Juicers” box

    A Juicers Box sounds awesome! Can there be a juicing skill with a needle icon?
  • ToughthundercatsToughthundercats Registered Users, Member 1,959 Posts
    I would love to see a double late innings Jim Thome or double fire Miguel Tejada and for CvC purposes a double blowout Frank Thomas. And one last ATG Cal Ripken Jr. MoB and fire skill or MoB and lhp skill. And make Cal a 620 overall. I know I'm dreaming but I can wish right?

    Miguel Cabrera LL would be nice. I like the Jim Thome and Frank Thomas idea as well, but they’d be more apt to give us another Kenny Lofton than to give us a new Legend.
