Mike Trout.
purely a fear factor haha I don't feel trout is as good as he should be on this game.. If I could go back and look at all the times I've faced him (50-60 ABs I would say) I have probably only given up 5-10 hits.... yet every time I see him I am still fearful
I agree from the standpoint of facing him. He is relatively easy to Strikeout. On my DD squad though, he's my anchor in the #3 SPOT!!

I probably should've used him rather than selling him right away when I pulled him a couple weeks back... oh well... What I really should've done in hindsight was LS collected him... I really want that biggio card but now trout/cole/verlander are holding me back... had trout and cole both at one point before deciding I want biggio lol little off topic, but yeah.... lessons learned

Rod Carew is a good, cheap option if you need 2b leadoff. He has the highest OPS on my squad
-
Jazz. He’s fast enough I think 87 speed and has power. I’ve liked lead off with more power this year and he’s the one. Used Kemp for a while too

FOTF Eric Davis
I hit so well with Davis. Hes my most productive all around players and my team is all 97 and above.
-
Brock has been my #1 for a while now. #1 is the only place in the order he seems to get on base for me.
-
CAP, hitting .450
-
Jackie, Eric Davis, FS Trammell have all been really good leadoff guys.
-
Biggio is my guy now but depending how stacked your team is ive seen some lineups with mantle up top. Not a bad way to start of your game facing him off the bat. Pretty scary
-
99 Jackie for me and it ain’t close.
-
Yeah I would like to throw Rickey Henderson in there best lead off guy ever. Has a little pop also. Also FOTF Eric Davis is awesome along with all the other guys mentioned but use who ever works for you and have fun.
-
Lou Brock
-
Been Biggio for quite a while but REALLY liking Lou Brock so far!
-
SS 99 Jackie Robinson for me
-
I am using Brock now. Very good, practically any ball you roll over on he can beat out. Then he steals 2nd and you are in business.
I used Cobb for a long time and think his hitting is a little better than Brock, but Lou is better on the bases and in the field. -
Lofton or Royce Lewis

Royce Lewis is a BR goat. I pulled him a few weeks ago from a prospect pack in conquest and wish I held onto him. His price is crazy high for some reason
-
FOTF Gwynn by a mile, my best hitters are around .270 while Gwynn is over .340 with approximately 150 ABs. Also has had sneaky pop for me.
-
99 42 bats leadoff for me. Has sneaky power, speed, and he was my best batter for a little while, until 97 Belli took over as being the team MVP. Belli bats cleanup

Agree I have Gwynn and he's hitting over 300, around 150 abs... 14 hrs, and sneaky pop... After trying Brock, I'm going to give him a run.. Not as good in the field.. But I like his speed... Swing didn't seem bad on showdown...
