So, as you may or may not know, there was a Q&A session with TOPPSMIKE today, and I wanted to go over and the highlight the important points he addressed.

-Ken Giles and Noah Syndergaurd inserts will be coming in 2015
-the 2015 base will use the same boost increments as 2014
-there will be an app update, and then a new app release
-base cards will be released shortly after
-they are working with the development team to release cards that will score in 2015 well before Opening Day
-2015 base WILL NOT be released until after the conclusion of Cut to the Chase and Street
-no cards that have already been released will score in 2015, except for VIP boosts
-we will not be overrun with boosts 
-possibility for leagues for points as a change in pts play 
-"warmup time is dead"
-Topps Digital looking into several retired player's rights (such as Koufax)
-there will be "sometimes, probably" be team packs
-Bowman Prospects set coming, but he doesn't know when
-there will be Chrome cards
-World Series Winner: "last series to be released next week. six award cards"
-he has no idea if the servers are going to be better this year

Thanks Vroom!

Agreed - thanks for this, man. So I am just wanting to clarify - for 2015 PTS chase, the only boosts released so far that will score are a Dozier, Laroche ? Also now these Spring Fever cards will score 1X as we understand it and based on the article, it looks like PTS scoring will change somehow.

Meaning that the Fire sig boosts like Felix, Trout and Edwin E are now longer scoring among others...

Thanks

Yes, the only cards that have been released that will score, as per my understanding, are the VIP Boosts and the Spring Fever cards. Everything else, similar to how the change from BUNT 2013 to 2014 was, will no longer score.
