Man, I wish I had some 99's. My bad for getting a late start.
You'll get them if you keep playing. SDS has already started the 99s rainstorm that will be the remainder of the year.
Yeah, there are free 99's. Truthfully overalls don't matter much to me. Mike Scott has a 99 but I hate his card, some others like it. But Lodolo has a 95 and it is still one of the best SP in the game lol
So much "yes" about Scott and Lodolo. Also, the 94 Chipper is still a strong contender for the 3B spot in line-ups while there are a number of higher rated cards out there. It's not all about the 99; there are gems all throughout the card collections players have access to.
Yeah in my opinion Schmidt sucks while Chipper rakes lol. Stats matter but you also have to use the card before writing it off is what I've heard and learned over time

Agree with all but one thing
KENDALL!!!!!
No way he is the 9th best catcher, he may not have the power of others but he is a doubles machine and his defense is really good. Hes my started and he is not going anywhere else.
He doesn't look good defensively on paper. Maybe I could move him up a little but I really like the catchers ahead of him. Edit: @CDNMoneyMaker93 I moved him up one spot
-
Well done! I love these lists. I've got a lot of these guys sitting around and kind of forget about them. It's fun to go back and give some of them another run.

Yeah, there are some guys that are just gathering virtual dust I need to use more!

I'll take it

Do you guys think the new Altuve should make the 2nd base list? How about Kike and Wheeler?

Rollins' defense makes him the clear #1 at SS for me, I was so fed up with these other bums stuck in quicksand as the ball dribbles on by. Rollins will get crazy animations like one-handers if he needs it to throw the guy out.

This is good to hear about the Rollins card. My 6th inning choice is down to him or Maddux, and I'm not hurting for starting pitching. (I already have lightning Thames at 1st and will stick with him for a while, I think, so Stan isn't very enticing.)

Just wanted to say amazing work- much appreciated

Great list.
The only one that made me say NO WAY!!!
Was Mo as the #1 Righty in the pen.His card was an absolute bleep show for me and every time I see him I light him up. And I am HORRIBLE at hitting.
Lot's of people I have asked feel the same way.
Other than you, I have never met anyone say Mo was the best.loved the list, grest conversation starter.
Was just wondering if I’m the only one who can’t pitch with Mo. He’s coughed up runs just about every time I run him out there.

No you are not. I used him in the Prime Time event, so everything was on HOF.
I used him enough to rack up the stats to prestige him, but with an ERA in the high 6's. AND that was after getting it down from the 8's.I would hardly use his cutter, it would get obliterated since everyone is expecting it.
I found it hard locking in a 100k+ pitcher when I cannot trust/use his primary pitch.Mo was the best in real life, I did not find him effective in DD.

I also have Lightning Thames & he’s such a beast! I want to see if Stan can match him but idk. Thames has suck a great swing!

I cannot make up my mind.
I have the 6th inning boss pack sitting in my inventory.
I just can't decide. -

I only have like 6 IP with him, just got bought him with the proceeds from my Trout collection investments. I’m going to give him a long leash only because I’ve never had. 5-pitch pitcher with those per/9’s I couldn’t be effective with, but man if the early returns aren’t dismal. His ERA is like 18.50.

I was horrible with his 88 OVR card, I was foolish to think that I could do better with his 99. He simply does not have swing and miss stuff.
At least that was my experience with him. -

I just can't decide.I finally settled on Maddux and couldn’t be happier. The only thing I find myself wanting is a slider but otherwise he’s great. Mix your pitches right and you can keep even great hitters off balance

None of the bosses seem like cards I would like. Might wait for the next inning reveal and make a strategic pick based on my Chase for Trout.
