Who's your starting 1B (not named Ortiz)

Why are you looking for another 1b instead of Papi? If you do care about Def then Olson is your guy. Has pop and defense. Plays like a 95 but has stats of an 85.
I'm honestly not looking for anyone, I don't have Ortiz, just curious what others are using
-
I'm still using 42 Ruth there as a secondary. I need to maybe try Gehrig but the relatively low power numbers are kind of not doing it for me on paper.
Can't really decide on who else to use at the moment.
-
Paralleled Jimmie Foxx ‘the beast’ lol
-
My favorite people in this forum are the ones that criticize the moves that people make and then try to be passive aggressive about it. Especially people who have been on here for a long time.
-
Evo Giambi for me. Was always a favourite player of mine on the Yankees and I have just stuck with him since getting him.
Having said that I don't have Ortiz yet so it may change.
-
Donny Baseball atm. Working towards Thome though
-
Adam dunn for me.

92 Vlad POTM parallel 5
Mine is too -
Level 4 Gehrig who for whatever reason comes up with clutch hits against lefties for me.....and that's saying something considering he's the only guy who hits above .240 for me
-
I got Babe Ruth during early access and I'm still using him. He's been parallel 5 for weeks now which helps.
There are guys I can really hit well with and some I can't so much and I just hit great with him vs. LH and RH. He has the lowest OVR rating on my team even with the +5 boost.
But he has the highest BA on my team which includes Trout and a bunch of mid to hi 90's stars at every position.
Hits HRs too lol. -
TA2 Thome. BEAST
-
Thome, Ruth, or Freeman. Freeman plays 3B if needed.
-
92 vlad level 3. I also have 95 mattingly that I play there and also in the outfield.

Before I got Big Papi (and put him in a Yankees uniform... it's a beautiful sight), I was running a platoon with Babe and Frank Thomas and could count on at least one homer per RS game from either of them.
No!!!! Just no!!! I’m a yankees fan with ptsd. Every year papi has a great card but I’d never know. I refuse to use him!
-
I had Prince there, but he was hitting like .180 (pretty much all of his hits were homers, but they were pretty rare).
I put Thome there, and he's batting like .450 (and pretty much all of his hits are homers, and they happen often).

96 Thome parallel 2 at this point... nasty
Same. Thome. Great swing.
-
Well I have Ortiz and he is well worth it. But Freeman is great. Only reason Freddie is not at 3rd is Chipper and I have Tatis at SS. Bellinger was solid for a while plus he is not slow. PoTM Vlad is another solid option but I have a thing against reverse split cards.

I'm not a fan of reverse split players either.
