Worst
5. Pirates
4. Diamondbacks
3. Athletics (Matt Olson keeps them out of the top 2)
2. Orioles- Blue Jays
Honorable Mention best- Rays, Twins
Honorable Mention worse- Phillies (Realmuto keeps them out of the top 5), Tigers -
I think LeMahieu is pretty bad. It’s probably just me, but he’s sold as soon as I get him. Slow, and can’t hit with him.
-
I might be biased but the Cubs TA is solid. Anthony Rizzo TA 1 was a stud at the time. Nico Hoerner was solid for TA 2. Kerry Wood can be nasty if you can locate with him. And Yu Darvish is another really good starter with a good pitch mix

Rizzo-Solid but worse than olson. Hoerner- your bias is showing. I think he was one of the worst in TA 2. Agree on Wood amd Darvish though

I enjoyed the Mets TA myself as a fan... didn’t think I’d like Leiter but he’s still in rotation and deGrom is one of the best with Gimenez a solid hitter
-
Nah bro, the A’s Liam Hendricks alone keeps that team out of the worst plus matt Olsen at the beginning of the year was a goon. If anything the Yankees easily crack the worst 5 with Clarke, Don, and Dj.
-
- Padres (SDS made sure of that)
- Nationals (Doesn't matter who else during the TA with Soto at the end)
- Cubs
- Dodgers
- Reds
- Brewers
- Mets
- Rays
- Indians
- Braves

I agree. They gave Gimenez way more props than he deserves imo. Used him for a bit but moved on once I got my 2B cap maxed out.
-
Yeah there’s no debating Jays had the worst and by far.
Guerrero has some of the worst attributes of all TA1 cards
Smith they doubled down on for TA2. I challenge you to find a worst card.
Henke was somewhat usable in TA3 but it’s been forever since I seen him. Was mostly events. Hardly made anyone’s BP when it dropped.
Gurriel could be a bench piece that can play everywhere. Kinda good at everything but great at none. Definitely lacking compared to othet TA4 drops

But Candelario is a switch hitter!

Hoerner was AWFUL. No matter what I did, he wouldn't get a hit. Rizzo was very good, but not as good as Olson, like @the_dragon1912 said. And then Wood and Darvish are good. I would say we are in the top 5 or so, but Hoerner might hurt us with that. -
Colorado surprisingly had a decent TA.

Yeah I can agree with that actually. Its not top of the line by any mean but Blackmon was on my bench until his awards card dropped(which is still my go-to pinch hitter). Bichette is actually a pretty solid bat but his defense brings him down. I obviously don’t like Story as much as you do but he is still good. Rollison is one of the worse TA2 cards though IMO
-
im biast but the Cardinals is pretty legit other than maybe the Yadi FOTF , because Gorman and Brock both hit above their stats and that Gallegos is nasty
