APBA GO cards vs. printed cards
-
I recently purchased the BG so my daughter and I can have our baseball fix during the lockdown. (Still playing my ongoing Phillies King of the HIll on GO.) I picked up the 1980 WS Set so I could play the 80Phils against her 2011 team (bought earlier during the brief single team sale trial). I noticed that the grades of some lesser-used pitchers in GO were higher than the printed grades on the WS cards, generally one higher and more reflective of their actual performance. The printed cards obviously had some grade reduction factor probably dependent on IP. My question is which is the current official set. I would think GO was the most up-to-date but I could be wrong. My 80s will have a tough time with Christenson and Espinosa as Ds. Bystrom is only a C (B in GO) but he only made 5 starts. (KC also has a couple of downgraded pitchers.)
