I build a fantasy draft assistant at DraftKick.com
Can someone explain how rarity works for baseball cards? I haven't opened a pack since 1992.

Is it like CCGs where you have a certain probability of pulling a common, uncommon, or rare?

Looking at Rickey, and I noticed that the fantasy greats each had almost exactly a decade of dominance:

Rickey 1980-1990
Bonds 1990-1998
ARod 1996-2007
Pujols 2001-2011

First round value year-in, year-out, with just 1 or 2 down seasons mixed in.

Sports sims build a solid base of diehard fans, and as a result they stick around a long time.

WhatIfSports is the second example I've seen lately (BaseHit the other) of one of those diehards buying the company to try to keep it going.

DraftKick's first pass rankings, with just Steamer right now.

I think drafters will come around on Skubal and Skenes in March.
