Your Top 3 FOTF

Thome, Hersh and Leiter are the only three I have locked in and prestiged, so I’m guessing it’d be those three. I loved the Schmidt card on paper, hitting, defense, everything except speed, but he never really worked out for me in reality. Some of them are good cards, but suffer from being weaker options at deep positions, either at first base like McGriff, Konerko and co, or in the outfield, where the likes of Trout, Mantle and Walker render them obsolete. Some really fun useable cards in there though, props to SDS for the TA structure this year.
Lou Brock is not useless, he has 99 speed, a decent arm and hits well above his stats. -

They all kinda blow imo. I really don't care for any of them.
Really, Orel, letter, woods are top pitchers. Lou Brock , kilibrew, Thome and Brock are great cards. Hell Before Cobb came out, I started prestiged Brock with mantle and trout. George Brett is my everyday 3rd basemen.
Not a fan of Orel. Woods is decent, my #5, Thomas rides the bench as a bench bat, but beyond that, meh.

Orel...... then a HUGE drop off
Killabrew
Leiter
Wood
Brock -
In my opinion...
Jim Thome - This card just rakes for me. He's been better than anyone else I've plugged in at 1B; whether that be Musial, Ruth, and even Frank Thomas to some extent. Although I have been rotating him with Frank.
Orel Hershiser - I don't think I need to tell you how awesome he is. He needs to be in your rotation.
Kerry Wood - He's got the heater plus a nasty slurve. For whatever reason, I do really well with this card.
Andre Dawson - If it weren't for the FS Luis Robert, he'd still be in my lineup. As is, he's usually my favorite bench-bat.
Honorable Mentions: A.J. Burnett, Al Leiter, Tony Gwynn, Eric Davis, Lou Brock, and Jason Kendall

Orel Hershiser
Eric Davis
Jim Thome
Harmon KillebrewWith honrable mentions to
Mike Schmidt
Robin Yount
George Brett
Lou Brock (power and speed great for the top of the order) -
Hershiser, Wood, and Andre Dawson. I think Dawson might be the most underrated and underused card in the game. Not exceptional at any one thing but every stat all around is above average.
-
Hershiser
Brett
BrockHM: Schmidt, Thome, Soto
-
Pitchers: Orel, Leiter, Wood
Hitters: Thome, Brock, Brett
Honorable mentions: Killebrew, Gwynn, Dawson -
I like Orel and Wood, just like the rest of everybody else here. Lol. But Michael young is a sleeper. Still hitting over .400 with him.
Matt Olson is my favorite FOTF though. Forever and always.

Leiter
Schmidt
Thome -
Hershiser, Smoltz, marichal/Gwynn

Kaline
Brett
Gwynn -
I’m surprised there’s not much more love for Eric Davis. Once prestiged, he has 99/99 speed/steal, 90’s across the board defensively, murders lefties, extremely playable vs righties and has a great swing

His stance just kills it for me , I use SZ2 and it’s jsir enough for that bat to be in my field of view and distract me

ThomeChecks thread. Sees my top three in the first post.
(I think this might be a very common answer, but rightfully so. All three are good cards.) -
Hershiser, Thome, and Brock

Yeah, like I said - A fun, useable card. Not useless, but rendered obsolete when you have Mantle, Ruth, Trout, Sheffield and Walker, plus the likes of Lofton, who has a similar profile, but whom I personally prefer to Brock.
