Rickey Henderson
-
Rickey is my favorite player of all time, but I feel like he performed below his stats last year. I think the smart bet is to take somebody like Kluber first...so I think I’ll probably take Rickey.

I build my team with SP, RP and middle of the field (C, SS, 2B, CF). You can find a ton of viable outfielders but you need 5 SP and at least 4-5 good relief pitchers to compete in RS. I go Kluber all day.
I took Glavine and Smoltz early. Did the team affinity for Correa (SS), Torres (playing him at 2B) and Ohtani. I am one showdown from Snell which would give me 4 solid starters. Will probably spend some of my 60k stubs on another starting pitcher for now.
How are you faring in Showdown? Do you play through to try to get as many runs as possible towards the Final Showdown or do you just skip to it?
I have probably 15-20K (not sure sure made back) 'invested' in the AL West Showdown and I haven't completed it yet.
At this rate, it may be better for me to just buy LS Betts/Judge and play them in RF; because chances are another RF, with better vision, and comparable power/contact will be released as a Boss, by the time I can get Gallo.

Also, your first part on your reply us spit on. SP and BP are my go-to spots first.
That's why I'm taking Kluber and may take Sandberg at 1.

I actually took McCovey, cause I suck at hitting but getting better. I did not get his Diamond card in previous years. I am liking this card

McCovey rakes

I was thinking I'd take Fingers. I like to build around a dominant bullpen.

I hit Kluber pretty well. I think if you want to take Rickey, do it.
Everyone is taking Kluber. He’s this year’s Kershaw, but he’s not as good.
Like some diversity in rosters.

Which is exactly why I took Hal. I had Kluber in a BR run and couldn’t locate. And I figured after the stream saying he was this yrs Kershaw he’d be in every lineup.

I took Hal too and he’s been my only good starter.

I took kluber and his stamina is insane lol he doesn't even get into the yellow until 113 pitches during ranked games

I'm wondering if we'll see a better version of Rickey later.

Probably, but not better vs lefties.

I did take Ricky because I didn’t like any other center fielders in my price range. I kind off regret taking him as I have not hit well with him against righty’s and that is all you face. I would go kluber.
