      A 98?

      With the other options only being high 80s, I guess it's safe to say nearly every DD team is going to have Mickey Mantle on it.

          You're reading it backwards, but I can see how you would based on how the card is applied to that page in comparison to the others.

              I read it backwards at first to until I realized that 98 was actually an 86

                  Looks like an 86.

                      I'm not a DD player so the only reason i'm excited about legends is to have them put on teams so I can create all time teams (or as close as you can get).

                              That would make significantly more sense. What an awkward positioning.

                                  Yeah even I did a double take. The way the diamond is pointed is how I figured it out haha.

                                      I actually don't understand the devs desire to put in cards that are oriented landscape instead of portrait. It is not like we have any way to rotate them in the game itself so they are always displayed sideways.

                                          wonder if a '56 or '57 Mantle will be in too

                                              Wish they would associate player personalities with these legends. Mantle never celebrated his homers. He ran around the bases with his head down as he did not want to show up the pitcher.

                                              A great add to the legends though. Now, get Maris in there.

                                                  As much as I love the legends they are adding, I really wish they translated to Franchise well. Capping offline stats to 99 is becoming a problem with all of these highly rated cards. If I want to use Mickey Mantle in Franchise, he would't be an all time great, he'd just be a great player. The 99 caps in franchise needs to be pushed back to 125.

                                                      Love it. Can't wait to see all of the new legends in the game. This is what keeps me playing the show. I start an offline franchise with all time teams as well as classic season rosters. Love the player vault and roster vaults...some great talent in this community to make it happen.
