TN Ryan McMahon has got good fielding at 3rd, and he hits bombs.
This is one i can get behind. McMahon was my 1st baseman for a while and was a disgusting hitter.
Look for the high fastball with him, or hold the PCI around the middle-left of the strike zone and adjust from there. Just hit my 100th HR with him yesterday
-
Been using 42 Gallo at 3B. I've concluded I am just straight cheeks with any Gallo card. Hitting like .100 in ranked with him right now and its not really a PCI issue. And its like every year, I just dont hit well with him.
Just unlocked the 2nd inning choice pack and took FS Austin Riley so may give him a go there instead. Been using McMahon Topps now card as my 2B.
-
I have LS Bellinger at first and 42 Gallo at third.
-
I run the April Donaldson... but I should run LS Muncy... for some reason I just rake with that card. Donaldson’s speed is pretty brutal.
-
I have Freeman at 1B and Seager at 3B. I loved their 99 cards last year and so far I’m raking with their LS cards this year.
-
McMahon hits like a slightly better Bellinger for me. Like he really rakes.

Bellinger is a beast 1B, especially with all the good outfielders. And he hits better than his numbers suggest IMO.

I know. It's funny, we're a month into the game and I already have problems determining my line up. Too many great outfielders. Lol. Amazing.
-
This may just be personal preference, but AS Wade Boggs is great for a gold. No power, but everything finds a gap or falls in front of the OF.
-
I have every card in the game and I am going from top to bottom to Parallel every card in game to at least level 1. So far I am almost done with all diamonds and 2 underrated 1B/3B are Topps Now Adam Duvall and Rhys Hoskins.

Devers with IE boost smashes RHP... I'll check who has IE boost other than him and will rotate Donaldson and J Ram, or move 42 Gallo from RF to 3B.
Gallo was a move I had seriously been thinking about but was worried about his PCI size. I just hit the 700's in ranked seasons so now im on HOF and even more nervous to run Gallo lol
Under 700 on AS he is a must have... 700+ he takes a hot... But still a great bench guy due to versatility and almost maxed out fielding/arm ratings.

try out ls trea turner
-
I started Vladdy and Frank Thomas, but nobody has hit better for me than the white Sox collection reward in Paul Konerko. He rakes

I was about to recommend 86 Ryan McMahon as well. He plays his position well and just racks at the plate. For 1st, 83 Ortiz from the AL East Team Affinity program racks as well.

I had Boggs in my starting lineup for a long time at 1B, got him up to tier 3 but eventually replaced him with Ruth. But I still have Boggs on the bench as a PH. The combination of contact, vision, discipline and clutch is incredible. He's a hit machine.
-
I run CAP at 3b.
Every year I start with CAP at C, SS, or CF. By the end of the year I find myself frustrated with production at 3b and end up moving CAP there in the late summer/early fall.
This year I’m making a beeline for the best 3b I can have at endgame.
-
George Brett is always one of, if not the best hitting 3B in this game every year. If you have the stubs, grab him. He's just as good as always.
-
I can't take 42 series Ke'Bryan Hayes out of my lineup at 3B! Has elite D, good speed and contact, and sneaky power!

Paul konerko

Just for the misery he gave me in his TA moments, I’m quick selling him for a single stub (even though they’re not sellable); that skinny wet-noodle swinging bass-third!
