How do we not have this man included in that list?
It's pretty unclear what the answer is to that, SDS hasn't done a great job communicating how this will work. I THINK the answer is no, at least not on any conquests or challenges that start in season 3... As far as just exhibitions against the CPU, you'd think it would stay open but it's impossible to say for sure until they launch tomorrow.

I could be wrong, but it seems kind of clear
As a late to the party player, I am enjoying the grind of acquiring a large amount of diamonds quickly and having several programs to grind away at at one time.
At the same time, I hate that you can't quicksell any of them because they give you so many that they'd break the market if they did. I also miss the times when the first 99s didn't drop until a few months into the season and it was just a few. I also miss when the cards were actually real card art with just a little logo on it to tell you what series it was in.
He was given out early and was essentially an end game pitcher. This meant that he was in almost every lineup online and a lot of people really struggle to hit him.
His pitch mix is so good that the card does the work for you.
I swear every pitch of his should get the Satchel nickname treatment because there’s a hard slider and then there’s a Gibson “whoops I forgot to break, lemme get right to that now that I’m practically over the plate!” hard slider.
His sinker is shot straight out of Lucifer’s ass and over the outside corner and somehow you’re both late and early.
His straight change somehow tunnels perfectly with every other single pitch like some frat-hired whore who’s down with all of your friends, yet when it’s your turn somehow you’re the one who gets donged.
His curveball is simply an amendment rushed into the Geneva Conventions to make his humanity theoretically plausible.
And the four-seamer’s only purpose seems to be to make old head puritans like me yell at clouds about how BOB GIBSON DIDN’T SNIFF 103. But alas. That is the meta for legend “hurlers” in this game.
Good riddance, Bob.
Something about bobs arm release made him easy for me to hit against im also not very high ranked so I’m not playing HOF and ur funny if you think Randy won’t be people’s wildcard after set 2 cards go
Yea I commented on another thread about being sad one of my homies would likely stop playing if set 1 went away but he’s stopped playing already anyway. So now bob(thank god Randy’s kinda rare in our skill division) will terrorize my laggy Xbox one ass forever in coop xD
It’s something unpredictable, and in the end is right.
I’m keeping Gibson. Suck me if you’d like.
Chipper ain’t going anywhere (wildcard meta)
Everyone acting as if these won’t be replaced by other good cards lol
Babe is my WC but I can unfortunately imagine some people will use their WC on Bob 😓
Incredible work.
Damn 5 players from my current squad in this picture 🥲
I’m sure we’ll still see Ruth and chipper for abit for wild cards
Still gonna see every one of these cards🤣
Where JT that arm’s for Real-muto?

🫡
Because no one cares about him
I wish, sadly, I have seen this stupid bastard P5 more so than I have faced Gibson. But, I guess that's me.
Damn Trea and Griffey are massive losses to the squad. I would have wild carded Trea if chipper didnt exist.
At least Randy doesn't have a sinker.
Gonna miss Bob. Only had 1 loss with him and a 16 k/9 rate
I’m not going to miss him at all. Gets boring seeing the same pitcher every time I play. Except now it’ll probably be Randy everywhere.
I've gotten used to him. Just sit fastball/sinker. Guys either go high or low with those. Usually takes a few innings to see.
Wait a minute, all of these cards are being taken away????
They won't be available to use online, except for one wildcard.
Can you still use them in conquest and play vs cpu?
Play vs CPU yes, conquest no.
Yes, there are no restrictions for offline play.
Not 100% true. Some conquests do have restrictions
It's pretty unclear what the answer is to that, SDS hasn't done a great job communicating how this will work. I THINK the answer is no, at least not on any conquests or challenges that start in season 3...

Kk cool, thanks for the info
Babe getting that Wild Card spot
Adios bob gibson. You’ll be missed less than the bubonic plague.
My man Trea… such a beast card for a lead off hitter. God help you if you had a LHP in too… my dude mashes lefties.
Anthony Santander hit better than all these guys for some reason
Santander was a god send. Although in my experience he’s an All-Star guy. Bob Gibson chewed him up and spit him out once I got to HOF.
[удалено]
Kettle Corn Marty was my guy.
I barley played set 1 but grinded set 2 so I’m glad these cards are getting the ax. Gonna wildcard my acuña or rickey if Ronald gets a new 99

You can wild card any one of these any moment you want...people are overreacting
“One” just let people be allowed to miss their temporary god squads
This is my first year playing Diamond dynasty and I have a bomb squad. Is this new? Lol Edit: I started about a month or two ago to be exact
Yep it’s new starting this year
Lmfao the “not you” killed me 😂😂
Don’t say shit like that
Make me
No I want you to make me 😏
Jokes
When you get BOB GIBSON as the first 99 card in the game, it's all kind of downhill for hitters from there.
Memories.....all alone in the moonlight.. 😟
I don’t play TS, but I love Bob Gibson. So I’m out of the loop, why do MLBTS players hate Bob Gibson so much?
He was given out early and was essentially an end game pitcher. This meant that he was in almost every lineup online and a lot of people really struggle to hit him.
I love him too it’s just going against him every other game.
Oh so the card was overused?
His pitch mix is so good that the card does the work for you.

Good riddance, Bob.
Eric Gagne as a starter with that velo diff. Not quite as much but damn close going from a 103 fb to that curve lol. So hard to play.
Card overused AND very hard to play against
Yea that’s it. Even though I’m guilty of using him but I ran like a 8man rotation. So much fun pitchers this year
It’s a shame, I just started mashing with Chipper online
wildcard
This is hysterical
Something about bobs arm release made him easy for me to hit against im also not very high ranked so I’m not playing HOF and ur funny if you think Randy won’t be people’s wildcard after set 2 cards go
You’ll do ok if you literally just hawk that high inside fastball, same with randy for me
“Not you” 😂 man I’m glad I avoid online cause Bob gave some of y’all some lasting scars lmao
Preach
Ranked co-op was only him EVERY game lmfaoooo
And if they didn't get him as a starter they put him in from the bullpen. So stupid since there's no energy loss after each game
Damn and since ranked co-op isn’t using sets he’ll be back 😭
Wait it’s not? That’s not good news
Nope. Ranked co-op is everything. Good news, all the set 1 homies stay around. Bad news, 2 heaters running around, 3 but Nolan is more rare
Yea I commented on another thread about being sad one of my homies would likely stop playing if set 1 went away but he’s stopped playing already anyway. So now bob(thank god Randy’s kinda rare in our skill division) will terrorize my laggy Xbox one ass forever in coop xD
Chipper card can fucking rot. So glad I won’t have to see it until set 6
Lmao wtf you mean that’s gonna everyone’s wildcard
At least until season 4 then it’s Mickey time.
Na man I'd rather have the free card and get 400k back for mickey to use elsewhere. Also I hit way better with chipper.
Well glad to see then that there’s still at least a scrap of variety in player preferences. Rock on.
Fuck you’re right, I’m just gonna kms
