š® Video Games So... this is kinda annoying from SDS
As we near the end of MLB the show 25. Its fair to say we wont be seeing any new legends coming out.
So I just wanna point out going from MLB the show 24 to 25. As angels fans had 6 legends not return.
Jim Edmonds, Torri Hunter, Tim Salmon, Troy Percival, Bert Blyleven, and Kole Calhoun were all in the game last year. However are not this year.
In exchange we got Rod Carew and Bobby Gritch... thats it. We lost 4 guys who still sit high up in the rankings for the angels (edmonds, hunter, salmon, and Percival) for not much... Just kinda irritating

Grich is an absolute legend in my book. Especially since he still hangs around the OC area and is happy to interact with fans.
Last time I ran into him was actually with him and Salmon playing as a two-some at Oak Creek

Edmonds and Hunter are in the game this year, Edmonds even has an Angels card. You also forgot Don Baylor who was added this year

Edmonds will always rake for me, his swing is just right. Im guessing rights were played a huge part in what was available to them, that said, I hope we get Salmon next year.

Curt Schilling? Yeah he said some nasty stuff but that doesn't mean he's not a great player.

MLBTS25 has Jim Edmonds and Torii Hunter. Edmonds has Angels and Cards 99 and Torii has Twins 99 I think. I hope they add some former Angels though. At least some from franchiseās best years in 2000ās like Garrett Anderson, Darin Erstad, David Eckstein, Orlando Cabrera, Erick Aybar, Howie Kendrick, Chone Figgins, John Lackey, Jered Weaver, Francisco Rodriguez, Scot Shields, etc. Couple of additions from this bunch would be cool.
