Skipping the obvious one of trout I’d say Hornsby. I thought his card in 19 was solid but didn’t love it. He was amazing for me in 20. Batted over 440 with a ton of hrs. They boosted his power a bit and that seemed to be the difference for me. I was comfortable playing him at third over all the other choices and batting him fourth.
-
Lou Gehrig is a extra base machine. I also loved yelich, 99 Lux, mantle, but I think my favorite righty swing this year belongs to the new NL central killer himself. 99 castellanos
-
Live rewards Giambi, HRD Cano, Live series Nelly Cruz, awards Ripken, and Sig Mo, I have a .20 ERA with him. I have him prestiged hands down still my favorite reliever to put in because I know I have the lead in the 9th.
Edit 0.75 with his prestige card a 6.67 with his other one because of the end grind for innings i gave up so many runs lol

excellent choices sir - Wade Davis is my best RP card of the year sub 1 ERA after over 40 online IP - absolutely disgusting card

nice thread
Trout, Honus, and Story have been a dream for me
And Larry Walker in RF for most of the game cycle - what a stud
Larry walker was a top 5 card on the game and no one can convince me otherwise. By far my best hitter.

i agree bud - in particular he won me a couple games throwing from RF to home plate - right on

MVP Trout
Bregman (the 99 from event reward)
Soto
*I’m a decent at best hitter and that Bregman card just absolutely beat the s**t outta the ball -
Babe Ruth was my best, mantle was my worst. Really disappointing to grind out the collections and not be able to hit with mantle and sheff.
-
Sleeper best for me: FotF George Brett/Prestige Brett. Card was a line drive into the gap machine.
Disappointment was Pudge, although I should've expected it. He never seems to be great.
-
I was going to pipe back in to mention the Brett card too. I just got it and I'm 7 for 9 so far.

Prestige Juan Marichal

Biggest surprises:
96 Ellsbury
99 Trea Turner
Sig Maddux
Sig Mookie
POTM MondesiBiggest letdowns:
Mantle
Ruth
Sheffield
Pretty much every catcher this year -
Ty Cobb was my best card..other than that all the obvious ones..99 Cody, and Gehrig were awesome..Larry Walker was a best..as a Canadian I was so happy with that...but a “lower” card that still went in my lineup from time to time later in the cycle..was awards Charlie Blackmon, that card was glitched
-
My 3 favorite
Trout - loved his MVP card
Jimmie Foxx - everything i hit with him seems to be for power.
And I think 3rd would be a tie between Soto's finest card and Larry Walker because that was a complete suprise and he was so easy to get clutch hits with plus i'm a Canadian from Burnaby (near Maple Ridge) so he was always a favorite of mine.

Garett Crochet is the White sox reliever who got a tops card. Filthy stuff, loved his card.
-
I loved that 96 Jacoby Elsbury. He was a monster.
I like the 99 Bryce Harper more than most people.
Pitching MVP goes to Corey the clone Kluber. I saw him everywhere for much of the season for a reason. Voted pitcher most likely to face himself on any given day last year.
Mo Rivera was as great as deserved. Im glad his first year in the game he was given quality stuff. He was as reliable as it got.

Part of problem with top tier rewards like this early year availability. Everyone see's where he can't hit from in BR, RS or Events then if u r late collecting it's worthless.

I couldn’t hit for sheff to save my life when I got him. My friend and I for the past week have just been playing friendlies with cards we wish we got to use more in RS. Sheff has absolutely destroyed the baseball. We’ve prob played 10-12 games and sheff has hit at least .330 with a bunch of tanks. My buddy gives him the intentional pass with runners on lol

Cobb, Ruth, Griffey, Foxx, and Goose
