So I was doing the monthly mission to get XBH with Topps Now and MAs. This Jesse Winker card mashes. I don't think I had used it online at all and rarely even in conquest. He's so good.
Who are some hidden gems that you like? I think most of us use the awards, sigs or primes. Who do you like using that isn't necessarily the 99s that everyone uses?
For the World Series program, that Chris Taylor card is seriously underrated.

FS Vidal Brujan

FOTF Lou Brock. He is lost in the shuffle but he is a [censored] good card
-
I put FotF Josh Bell and Moncada into the lineup again for dailies over the weekend. They both still rake.
-
Doubt anyone uses this Max Muncy card online, but he is sick. Love his little no doubt home run shuffle too.
-
FOTF Palmer.

95 Brandon Lowe
-
97 Whitley. Have a sub 2 era in 70+ innings.

96 Joc Pederson, throw anything in the zone and it’s a perfect perfect, because I don’t care as much about defense I put him in cent so I could have Baylor postseason davis’ baton the lineup, currently hitting second in my order behind albies. Usually I try to bunt into the shift with Ozzie. Joc has hit so many rage quit nukes for me it’s unbelievable. Just hit on on a perfect pitch on the inside half of the plate for 3 runs, then went on to blow the game. I suck he doesn’t.

98 Lofton, do love that card.

I'm using the 96 Joc Pederson against RHP. The 120 power vs. RHP really hits for a lot of hard exit velocity. I'm platooning with him as my first baseman (it is one of his secondary positions, and I think his speed is better suited there).

I was gonna post about that Winker card. Huge fan. His hitting attributes are better than Griffey (his swing is nice too) .. he's slow as molasses but as a bench bat I think he's a sneaky smart play.

Haha, I'll add Prime Mantle to this list too.

98 Albies

98 Edmonds

Yordon Alvarez. I love when I play someone who has him. I'm like,"this guy gets it." I'm not throwing anything in the strike zone to that guy though. Take your base player

Jackie Bradley Jr.
I hit over .450 with him. I hit a homerun every 5 at bats. He is decent in the outfield with a canon arm. His swing generates so much power that even his weak side (74 power vs left if I remember correctly) is pure bomb
