I can’t see paying 400k for Ted when Edmonds is free and overall Probly a better card.
There is a 0% chance Edmonds is a better card than Ted Williams. That Ted card might be the best card in the game aside from Trout
Really? Even factoring in fielding? There have been years when he was disastrous in the outfield. Does he hit that much better than Edmonds?

Fielding is a non issue with silver in left I've found. Is Ted going to make a diving catch every game, or flag down a ball in the gap that Buxton might get to? No. But his bat is easily the best left bat in the entire game, and arguably the best overall. Trout only has him beat as an all around card because Trout's card truly is elite level at all 5 tools, where as with Ted you're getting unbelievable hitting with fielding that's fine.

How is Ted William's anyway...bought him last night because I had stubs and have loved his card since the show 15...
I love Ted. He is like Babe for me. He hits balls no one else can and his D has not been a liability

hey pal both cars get you there in the same timeframe, but in one of them you sit on some dank cloth, and the other its on Goose leather that smells of rich mahogany

Played a RS game last night, I'm really rusty. But I really like Trout's swing, he didn't get a hit, but he got plunked and I drew a walk with him. I could tell my opponent did not want to pitch to him. Plays a smooth CF as well, very happy to have him.
Gonna play a few event games to get back in the swing of things, at least for my skill level. With all this offline content RS was pushed to the backseat.

He is the best card in the game, so yes.
Mantle would like a word

So you can pick up groceries and maybe a little something from the home & garden center?

There aren't many cards that just seem to be universally feared in this year's game, but I'd say the 99 Trout is definitely one of them.
IMO, it's between the 99 Trout, Mickey Mantle, and FOTF Jim Thome for the best overall hitter in the game.
Thome?

Well I assume it's Mantle. I just disagree. They're 1 and 2 without question, personal preference likely dictates who gets 1

Mantle is a switch hitter, Trout is probably a tad better overall but the switch hitting factor for me makes it a wash. They're both outstanding.

Thome?
That's a personal pick.
I'm hitting over .400 with him and I think I have over 250 at-bats.

Trout is the best,
That is all

Thanks for the info, good to know. I don't think I've ever used a Trout card, so I was curious how he played. I guess in a way Trout was my 9th inning boss, so that should be alright.
Got to give him at bats though.for like his first 20 at bats for me was horrific but after that I started getting his swing down an being patient. when you get ahold of one with trout it's usually gone or xbh
-
first game i had with him he had the lone HR to make me win 1-0 - a nailbiter but he lifted me so yea TFish is the man
