Cards that surprise you
-
For me it’s been the players league 85 Gavin lux, idk why but I’m batting 340 with him and hitting tons of fingers, and I don’t plan on taking him off 2nd anytime soon
-
Barry Larkin has been solid for me. And the (91) Cobb for a long time hit way above his rating.

Tommy La Stella... No joke. He's been crushing the ball for me
In earlier events and in BR, Tommy freaking La Stella has been a great card for me.
-
Dylan Carlson. Used him for over 500 AB online and he still is hitting over .320
-

Alek Thomas - dbacks TAFS he takes - plays an amazing center, only downfall is he has an incredibly weak arm
No one has him, he's my best hitter (better than Mick)
-
Katel Marte smashes righties for me on hof was a surprise. To this day a bench bat and sometimes gets the call to platoon with multiple players. If he had any more speed or defense he'd still be a regular batting over .390 through 400+ at bats. I packed him day 1 and hes been the most consistent player since ever for me. Swinging the bat that is.
-
Hanley Ramirez. I prestiged with him a couple weeks ago and all he does is make hard contact. Also really like the 90 Gavin Lux (he crushes high heat), Kenny Lofton & Miggy.
-
Andres Gimenez! Cannot get him out... hitting .405 3hr 12sb in 121ab only 16 strikeout
-
I'd like to add that Headliners Matt Wieters card to this thread. I picked him up by the recommendation of someone on here and he has been excellent in a small sample size for me. His swing is so smooth. I'm almost positive he's going to replace 99 Buster Posey for me.

Jazz for sure but Bryce Harper was hitting like crazy for me
I started using Harper because I needed Phillies innings, and he has stayed in my lineup because he has my highest slugging % of anyone vs CPU now. He has been hitting absolute bombs for me.

The 85 POTM Mondesi rips bombs all over the place. He’s long been out of my lineup, but I thought he’d suck at first look.
This card in my opinion is still an elite shortstop! Total glitch card!
-
Joe Torre SS is awful. Thought maybe a 98 rating would make him playable this year, I was wrong.
Nolan Jones surpised me in a good way.
-
Diamond's Bo Bichette and Brandon Crawford
-
Gold Matt Olsen or son. Put him in to do some 'Athletics innings.' He blew up! Even hit a no-doubter.
-
How are you guys "surprised" at dudes who are 95+ overalls being good in the game? You didn't expect to really hit that well with someone who has 117 contact vs lefties? Sheesh

TBF I'm more surprised that I hit better with 85 Brandon Crawford or 78 Kyle Schwarber for that matter than 99 Posey or 95 Griffey... offline too!
-
That 83 gold Juan Soto kills it for me.
