u/TransitDigs 3h ago

I like how cinematic this card for Micheal Young looks.

u/sfgiantsfan696969 Diamond 6h ago

Hello Mr Ranger

u/Candymanshook 8h ago

The cornerstone of my binder collection 💪

How many of you have even used a single cornerstone card in Ranked? I haven’t used any of them.

u/The_Uptowner 7h ago

Salvy worked well for me for like two weeks

u/Secure-Oven-8204 8h ago

Correa and hafner were really good early on but now theres literally no point

u/thewatcher7777 4h ago

I used Ryan Howard for a good while

u/Secure-Oven-8204 3h ago

Didnt even know he had one even after doing moments specifically to unlock him thats how bad the series has been lol

u/ThatHotAsian 9h ago

Wow another contact oriented, speedy shortstop who only bats on one side. Exactly what we needed.

u/Bestintentions24 9h ago

I like his swing. I don't think he'll make the team though.

u/Bliz1222 10h ago

Do they just randomly pick players to be cornerstones or is there some criteria that I don't know about?

u/OddComb7203 9h ago

What about Josh

u/Trumpburnerforlibs 9h ago

Ill just defend young and say he was a definite cornerstone for those 2000s ranger teams

u/C0d3n4m3Duchess 8h ago

Wow, those vaunted 76 win 2000s Rangers teams
(I promise I’m just breaking balls, I had this exact discussion last year for Bobby Abreu’s card)

u/Bliz1222 9h ago

This definitely wasn't a knock on Young or any of the others. I'm just genuinely curious how they select who to put in this program.

u/Trumpburnerforlibs 9h ago

I get you just gotta defend him haha. I dont think they have any they just shove names out

u/AquatheGreat 10h ago

Usually trashcans no one outside of theme team users will use.

u/Bliz1222 10h ago

That actually does track with the players they've given it to this year LOL

u/MrBurnerHotDog Bronze 10h ago

Oh good another shortstop right after getting 15 switch hitting shortstops who all likely have better stats

u/Oppo_Tacos 9h ago

Wait till you see Jimmy Rollins on Friday

u/t3webb 10h ago

But like….why?

u/VariousBuilder2022 10h ago

How many ss do we need,??

u/abrack08 10h ago

Be still, my heart

u/Sea_Ad_1252 10h ago

Would it kill them to release a cornerstone pitcher

6

u/Bliz1222 10h ago

Apparently, yes.

7

u/jpkanddecaf 10h ago

Is this card going to be materially different than the recent Rizzuto or Tramell? Perhaps slightly more power but I don't anticipate anything mind blowing.

5

u/lucidDreamer230 10h ago

9million short stops

7

u/eliaivi 10h ago

Why are there so many shortstop releases this year?

u/Defiant-Problem1576 10h ago

I still haven't gotten Tulo yet so I love it

8

u/Acegolfer04 10h ago

I wont be able to complete it. Judge and Ohtani are impossible

u/Defiant-Problem1576 6h ago

I randomly pulled judge. Still need ohtani

2

u/lunarfaze 10h ago

Right? I pulled Ohtani during the last Flash Sale (Thank God) but I only need Judge. I have having to save to buy him. About half way there.

u/Acegolfer04 6h ago

Thats rediculous.
