I've got 42 Hayes, he's got great defense, a decent bat, and solid speed for a corner infielder. He won't be my 3B once someone I like better comes along, but he's been solid.
He was my 3rd basemen until I got Chipper this morning. He was one of my favorites of the 42 TA cards.
-
I was using my CAP at 3rd for awhile until I got Chipper, he has toggled between catcher and RP since. Adames has a cannon for an arm and plays above his stats on offense, if you can deal with the low vision Tatis is solid.
-
Chipper is my guy at 3rd. I have to put him at short stop at times but dont like doing it. too many balls get up the middle
-
I play Vladdy Jr. or Ryan McMahon at 3rd... their bats are good enough to overcome their defense

Headliner.
The 90 Donaldson card was the first headliner pack diamond on launch day.
Anyway, I'm using 42 Gallo card at 3B. I don't do well with him really but I really lack a better option and I haven't bothered to take him out yet (mainly because I need 42 card TBs for inning mission) and I've benched Ruth temporarily in favor of Vlad Jr.
Tempted to try FS Riley there but really just waiting to give that BO Sheffield a shot in a few days when we get there in the daily program. Or if I can find a better 2nd baseman I'd move McMahon back to 3rd.
-
I use Vlad Jr POTM at 3rd. Dude is a beast.
-
Eddie Mathews just popped up.
-
Donaldson POTM and McMahon are great options free of cost.
-
Still using McMahon or I use Raffy Devers when he has a good inside edge day. He plays better against lefties than his numbers show
-
McMahon is probably the best hitting 3B for most people. Once I got him to Parallel 5 I took him out to level up other guys. Been using Jose Ramirez there lately who has a great bat too. I've tried using Gallo in different spots but he has probably the most underwhelming bat of any hyped up player I've tried, atleast for me. I hit more HRs with guys with less power and higher vision/contact. Also the MA Justin Turner is a good hitter with decent defense but is slower than most. Donaldson is good too, even the live series with IE bonus if you can't afford the better one.

I have Schmidt at third and he hits Hr but strikes out just as much,no in between and he is only average at fielding.Who are you guys rolling with and why?
I'd rather use a common over Schmidt lol. So yeah. Anyone.
-
Schmidt. i know his swing and he rakes for me. the only one he gets replaced for is a better Schmidt.
-
I'm doing really well with arenado.

LS JRAM. Your welcome
