We’ve seen two each at 1B, 2B and SS so 3B and C seem likely. Matthews and Bench are the most obvious choices there. Banks-great player, Cubs legend but not exactly ATG class.

Neither is Enos Slaughter and he was an ATG this year.
I hope Willie Mays drops this week. It is a shame how late in the season they drop him each year.
The last 2 years yes I agree. But he was the 2nd atg in 18. Think he dropped in July??? Maybe august. But it was early. But to be fair, there were only a few ATGs that year. Not the flooded market it is now.

Forgot about him and you are certainly right there.
To be fair, I’m a giant Cubs fan and love Ernie Banks. Besides slaughter I’m not sure he better or as good as the others that have been picked. But I certainly wouldn’t mind it. I’m sure we will see Mays and probably Musial. Not sure about Paige since they released him recently as a non atg. But not having Paige or Gibson as atg seemed odd.

I forget who said it before, but it's definitely not as exciting when an ATG is a player that's already been released. I prefer those really old dudes that you might not have heard of but look them up and they were totally awesome.
It’s pretty obvious that they’ve released so many players and numerous versions of some of them that the ATGs are not as exciting as they once were. Would I love to pull Bench? Absolutely, but I won’t spend any gold chasing another version of him
Huh? Obviously I meant released this year as normal players not in the entire history of the game.
No I get it. I was just pointing it out. Yes the regular legends turned ATG in the same season is annoying. But I was just saying, guys like Schmidt and bench have been in the game since atleast 17. ATG were introduced in 18. So seems odd to me they are just now becoming ATG. Part of the “wow” factor on them was they were 1 of a kind, always max players. But yea, it’s clear they released too many so they have to dig through previously used players.

i dont love it either but when one is released per week, theres not much you can do.

Yea, they have to pay licensing for all of the retired players they use so they're trying to get creative. Savvy cost cutting moves like that are why they can afford to sell us fake mountains of fake gold for the low price of just $99.99.
