The only choice I really see here is Cobb but I'm even leaning on not even bothering with him. I've got Biggio at C and he's solid. Kershaw doesn't look like he is going to be good to me for some reason and my RF is Sheffield.
What's everyone doing here ?
I also have Biggio at C and Sheffield in RF. I've played the Showdown a couple times and Cobb has not impressed me yet (small sample size, I know.) I absolutely loved Kershaw last year, and I am hoping this one will be the same.
All that being said, I'll probably pick Cobb. Those numbers are just too good to pass up, and I was born and raised a Tigers fan leading to a little bias. -
Cobb has been great for me so far! Small sample size, but I'm hitting .379 with him. Dont sleep on his power! I have 3 hr's and I'm under 30 ab's
-
Yeah Cobb is a no brainer pick IMO
-
Not even sure I will get 300 stars. I had a cooking accident on Saturday and have a couple second degree burns on my fore finger and thumb so I put myself on the IL. Cobb looks like a better Ellsbury though.

Yup. Cobb is the choice for me and it’s not even close in my opinion.

Be careful, man.

I’ve had Cobb for a weekish now, I think I’ve logged 5ish ranked games with him in the 550-7 range. He’s been excellent, a few clutch homeruns, a triple or two and superior speed in the outfield and on the bases.
I had Ruth in left and kept Thames at first because I love both those bats so much. Ruth is lf def hurt me in a lot of games so I had to bench Thames. And out Cobb in LF. Very glad I did except I still miss Thames lol, I have hit a few clutch PH bombs w him tho so there’s that.
Also on pudge, I had him all year last year and never found anyone as good. People crapped on him last year too and I don’t get it, he’s a monster hitting and beat D in the game at the position, only problem is he’s slow, so hard for me to take biggio out for him. I want red kershaw even though I won’t use him much, but in a clutch run to ws he might be useful for a few innings to fill in, or he’ll he might be Maddux good!

Shuffled sucks imo. I'm going to give Cobb a shot and replace Walker. Move him to the bench.
-
Yea I am really bad at showdowns like really bad. I tried the 8th inning last night and beat it on the first turn(I was in shock). I chose pudge as my boss and he had two hits the entire showdown. My MVPs were Dawson and Kike Hernandez
-
I never liked pudge swing. Cobb is veryyyyy good

Really? Man the guy mashes for me. In 430 AB's with his Prestige card i'm hitting .370 48 HR's 91 RBI 1.199 OPS. I don't think he will never not be in my lineup. Probably take Cobb and Platoon Shef and Brett at 3B.

I just could never hit consistently with him.
