Team Help/ Silver 1 Choice
-
All of them are desirable. Personally, I'm going with Reggie first.
-
I took Posey but I guess you can't really go wrong with any of them. Although I'm probably taking Reggie last because his defense makes him a bench bat.

I would say Larkin, reggie or minoso in that order. I am also level 98 ans am leaning towards larkin or reggie. Reggie would be a bench bat. I have 99 mantle so my best SS is lindor or marte. Reggie's defense would make him a non starter on my squad. Although if i pick Larkin and don't like his swing then its a waste of a pick. Heard Sandberg is good this year. I always suck with him and am in no need of a 2b or 3b. Minoso looks blah to me. I would say posey for you but it seems you will have a diamond cap at catcher soon. Good luck and let me know what you choose.
I actually don’t plan to grind my cap to diamond, I like playing with real cards of real players. I find it more fun. But I don’t want to take Posey if people think that I should take someone else and pick up 87 Gary Sanchez at my next classics pack. I’ve raked with Posey and Reggie cards in the past, and they are the two I am leaning towards

I am gonna choose him or Posey I think. Reggie for the lefty bat or Posey for the lockdown catcher for most of the year / until I get Biggio and possibly like him more or put Biggio on Second

I am definitely in a similar boat to you, I don’t love Reggie’s defense. But at this point in the year his bat is hard to deny, especially knowing most of the good bats at the point are righties

Just for for FOTF Gallo, he rakes and is a gold glover.

Looking at your needs id say minoso or posey

I already have that card but I could move him to left and put Reggie in right or vice versa if I took Reggie

I’m definitely interested in Minoso too, just haven’t used his cards before and I haven’t heard much about his swing.
I’ve never hit well with Sandberg and I actually am not super interested in using Larkin.
I’ve narrowed it down to Reggie and Posey, with Minoso being the outsider pick -
Posey! Not biased at all

I’ve narrowed it down to Reggie and Posey, with Minoso being the outsider pickI would go with posey. Reggie is nothing more than a pinch hitter. Fielding is a mess with good fielders right now. Reggie might be a nightmare on defense.

Lol. I’ve always liked Posey as a baseball fan so I may have to take him

I’ve heard that Reggie holds his own, but is not an above-average defender. I am definitely leaning towards Posey more than I was originally

Minoso is the best option

I’m just afraid he doesn’t have enough pop to occupy an outfield spot for me. Are you hitting extra-base hits with him?

I love Reggies swing. And the way people are talking about how bad defense is,& how 99 Mantel is letting the ball hit of his cap. I’ve completely gotten rid of the thought of defense. Diamond shield defenders, gold, silver shield defenders I’ve seen cost many people games. I try looking at it this way: who is my opponent most afraid of to pitch to? And me personally I’d rather pitch to Posey, Larkin, Minoso, & Sandberg over Mr. October.But eventually we’ll get all 5 of them

Good to know. And true that we will get them all at some point but for some that may take a while. I didn’t get my final two last year until around November I think so I need to be careful with who I choose, especially for silver 1 since it’s so early
-
Thanks to everyone who has given me the great advice on these cards but I think I’ve decided on where I am going to go next. I think I am going to take Posey at Silver 1, Carlos Gonzalez for the next Evo pack and move either him or Trout to left, Morton or Mondesi in the next classics pack, and Newhouser in the next High Diamond pack. Lmk what you guys think of this approach.
