It does look like stickers are the plan. I think it should be a priority to get the SPA rc's hard-signed, it's obvious that on-card is the route to take. Cmon UD! Listen to the hobby...

Thanks for the images.

UD is lazy. They had to do NOTHING but wait for these players to be added to the 40-man roster. On-card auto's should be the favor they're giving buyers/dealers.

Dang it!! If the USA autos would have been included, this would have been a killer product. As it is, still looks very nice.

I for one am glad UD didn't disperse the USA autos/GU's into separate products besides the USA sealed sets as they did last year. In this case the less, the merrier.

I agree with you but I do really like the card designs that they did for the USA autos for SP Authentic, Sweet Spot, and Ultimate much more than the sealed sets (at least last year)

Product would have been a monster product with USA included but should be sweet nonetheless

Curious why not include USA proudct if they had the ability to do so

Isn't the USA license up this season?

I totally agree, if they would have had them in this product it woulda competed with most anything out there. However as it is, I think it still seems to be a solid product (depending upon SV)! :D

Looks as though I'll have to shoot an email to a contact I know at USAbaseball to ask that question.

Seeing the return of USA baseball would have been fantastic to see. It was quite easy to stock up on a lot of the top prospects early on when few people knew they were included in the checklists. If UD believes that the consumer is content with the inclusion of the rookie logo cards this year and that these cards will satisfy the "prospecting" section of the hobby, then they have no incentive to put the USA cards in their packs...which sucks.

Just heard from Chris Carlin at UD -- the USA boxed sets will in fact be returning.

Why would they ever include these scrubs in the first place????

We listened to the concerns that dealers and customers had for previous
releases of SP Authentic Baseball where boxes were full of signed RC's of
31-year-old middle relievers

What, you don't like pulling Devern Hansack cards?

Anyway, this product looks sweet. If only we could see some scans. I'll have to get a Rasmus.
Def going to be ripping! And a mlb licensed autograph card of pablo sandoval! Sweet. Even though he is no longer a RC lol, i wonder if they'll put the rookie logo on the card.
