Kenny Lofton
-
I drafted Kenny Lofton in the AL Central Showdown and he simply raked, pretty much getting a base hit 70-80% of the time, being one of the only guys I dared stealing bases with in Showdown, and being an all around stud. My current RS CF is either Acuna (who I'm OK with) or I play Yelich there (who I'm not hitting well with so far in about 5-6 games). Worth buying Lofton and playing him there in your opinion? In case this helps, my RF is Reggie and LF is either FOTF Soto or Yelich.

I use Lofton in RS and love him. He's hitting .400 in 15 games or so. Defensively he's unreal. Gets to everything

I used him as my center fielder last year until griffey was an inning boss, and he basically just hit .370+ In over 500 at bats. I ended up buying him this year to use as a rental until the next live series events and I can win the next 5 or so games to earn him. He is just a base hit machine and I think I’ve stolen 9/10 or so with him this year online. He can turn a base hit into a single and a gapper is triple. His arm is sorta a damper in CF but he catches everything. I mean EVERYTHING. At this stage unless you can get Mantle, I think he’s a very useable and superior option for a lead off/CF, even later in the game as a speed/PR bench bat

Thanks guys, this is very helpful!
On a related note, I also drafted Choo in the same AL Central Showdown and he was insane. Hit a bunch of big HRs and him + Lofton at the top of my lineup were dynamite!

Lofton is the truth , that card was a staple for me last two years, I need to put him in over Reggie. He is a slap hit god
-
wait for the live series 2 event next week. his price will drop

I used Pierre lofton and Cobb and lofton is the best I think. He’s a base hit machine and he’s a vacuum out in CF If you could live with the arm

Lofton is my event mvp. But know that he has a terrible arm in the outfield. You might need to sub late in the game.

He’s fine in left, just always throw to cut off man
