I would (and do) use Gehrig at 1B and Cobb in the outfield over Walker. I have both Babe and Walker on the bench.
As for your starting pitching, I would definitely boot Paxton, Wood and Pearson.
-
Get rid of them all
-
Looks good, but I would def realign your OF. Trout LF, Mantle CF, Walker RF.
-
Who would be your starting 5 then?
-
Wood is nasty tho. On hof and legend he’s kind of a cheat code lol

My starting 5 are Kershaw, Kluber, Sale, Hershiser and the #5 spot is a wildcard who I'm now using the new Vida to see if he's good. If he's not great I'll go back to Tom Seaver probably.

I disagree. He's too wild, patient hitters with a good eye and quick bat with have a field day against Wood.

I do like that Whitley a lot as well. Orel just doesn’t do it for me for some reason. He doesn’t throw quite hard enough. But that’s just me.

Orel is a guy you need to know how to pitch with. His pitch mix is one of the best in the game.

Woods fb and slurve both have great control and I use his change as well. I have no issues with him. If it comes to pitch mix burnes Whitley Kluber mize I would all put ahead of Orel.

Alright, well if it works for you then there's no reason to change it up. I always advise people to stick with what works for them.

I hear you. I was just looking to see what others would run if they had every card.

Absolute Best? It does depend on how well you hit and you're priorities I guess, personally I want as good defense as I can get while having the best contact numbers with power being 2nd, and speed is important to me.
C- Prestige Posey or Pudge
1B- Gehrig or Pujols
2B- Kind of open, depends on what you need. Hornsby for offense, Turner, Prestige Biggio, Jackie, even Tatis if you want to use J-roll at short.
SS- Tatis, J-Roll or Wagner
3B- Schmidt (defensively), Tatis, Wagner
LF- Cobb, Mantle
CF- Mantle, Trout
RF- Mantle, WalkerPitchers:
Mize
Feller
Orel
Wood
Whitley, Maddux, Kluber -
No sense making this list until they release 99 Chipper and Griffey...LETS GO SDS!!!!!
-
What I'm working with:
C Foxx
1B Ruth
2B Wagner
SS Tatis Jr
3B Hornsby
RF Mantle
CF Trout
LF CobbBN - Thames, Yelich, Thomas, Sheffield, Henderson (Pinch Runner)
SP
Hershiser
Kluber
Kershaw
Seaver
SaleBULLPEN
Chapman
Crochet
Davis
Gossage
Jansen
RiveraThe only guys that I'd like to substitute, if/when I have the stubs, would be Wagner for Crochet and Mize for Sale. Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with my team.
