Shortstop Stopgap
-
Correa is probably the best option. He is good everywhere with I think 65 speed. If you just need someone short term, that vizquel card hits lots of singles and plays amazing defense and is a switch hitter. So many free options at ss
-
I use Didi at 2B, HanRam at 3B and Correa at SS. Chipper in LF.
Lindor is glitchy though. -

Pick one if the following to plug in a shortstop until I can get Barry Larkin.
Veteran Rollins
LS Lindor
LS Baez
PL Bichette
LS StoryI'll be sitting on my 2 packs from completing the Player's League Moments soon; so Bichette could be had for free.
Or I could sell whomever and put toqards one of the other four.
Prefer Diamond fielding; but if Bichette is serviceable; I can work with his Silver fielding.
Anyone have reviews on all 5?
I have the most experience with Story of all these cards and have had a great time using him. Good swing, clutch, power, speed, fielding, has it all.

I’d say the 3 SS from the April/May monthly rewards are better than those guys above (Anderson, Didi, Correa). All of which are free.
I can’t agree with this more. Personally, Correa doesn’t make my squad because he is a cheating db, but Anderson and Didi play the middle infield for me.

Why not try Ozzie out. He's only like 15k. Diamond fielding, speed. He gets hits. Switch hitter.
Yea his 95 is great, just enough power to consistently get it between the infield and outfield and I'm sure you know how good he is fielding
-
Thanks all. When I made my original post I forgot all about the POTM Anderson, Didi, amd Correa cards.
I can actually use anyone if them lobgtwrm and pick someone besides Larkin at Silver 1.

Always keep in mind that seemingly lower rated LS players will actually perform better than Legends and Flashbacks do to situational Quirks with hidden attribute boosts. Flashbacks and Legends do not have situational Quirks like Dead Red, Breaking Ball Hitter, Rally Monkey, Situational Hitter, etc.
Therefore, take this into account since LS players true Ratings are hidden and higher than advertised. (As an example, Trout plays way above "95" due to this.)
And yes, Frankie Lindor is a glitch.
-
I have Larkin and still use Story. Can’t justify taking him out. Just had a 2 HR, 6 RBI game for me last night in a HOF RS game. Speed, fielding, arm, rakes.
-
I'd recommend going with the CAP, but out of those options, I like Lindor a lot. He was my SS until my CAP was ready to plug in for RS
-
Lindor is a glitch. I’m also hitting well with May Brandon Crawford. I think my avg is +350. No bombs though
-
From your list: Lindor
I got POTM Correa in about hour and its free...
-
Lindor
I used Hanley Ramirez before I got Larkin though -
