I'm refusing to use Jackie this year simply because he plays every year at 2B for me. 3 staples to my lineup every year in and out, Posada, Jackie, Griffey. Ever since 17 I've had all of these guys for most of the year, I'm just bored with him.
But yeah man I appreciate the comments. Always enjoy a good discussion.
Well I mean I always try and look at things objectively and others obviously do the same. I wouldn’t expect anyone to tell me why a certain card is better and neither should you. I just enjoy seeing and understanding the reasoning for some people. There are plenty of good cards for many different people.
No reason to blast anyone over their preferences. It’s their game and their squad.
Yeah played some guy in RS last night. Had Buxton, Lofton, Dee Strange-Gordon and Billy Hamilton. Didn’t take long for me to figure out his plan. But hey if he enjoys it, more power to him. I don’t understand but whatever.

Thats where I slap bunt defense on and love the 2B in, doesn't stand a chance.

Yeah that was a given, but then he would steal/bunt and try to take third so I would immediately throw to 3B and cut him off. He just ran himself into so many outs. He quit in the 6th when I was going up by 5 after Dante hit a pinch hit bomb that never counted cause the guy dashboarded

Not everyone has a super amazing team with the highest rated cards at every position. Semien is more than good enough to make my starting lineup right now, and I’m looking forward to this weekend when I have time to dive into the program.

I’m really digging him so far. He single handedly whooped my azz in an RS game with 2 bombs. I smacked a few with him. Groshans to the bench baby

My team is 93 overall I agree I have not done a single LS collection

Craziest part I see so many others I can’t hit with him oddly... running infield of Belli Semien Mauricio and Vlad Jr now

What sucks is the POTM series is a chance for SDS to add to lineup diversity because all of these guys who would never make a “God Squad” with their live series. But many have tons of fans and many of which play this game and would put them in their lineups. This is their chance to really pump up the fan base of baseball and the game but “Oh he botches it!”
This right here should be the "Soul" purpose of POTM and Topps Now. But I am noticicing over last 3 years the roster upgrades and cards they release coincide with BR more than anything.

I actually like the Brandon Crawford card as a lefty pinch hitter.
