I have very little chance of going 12-0, but with Posada at 90 points and Harper at 100 points, I'll definitely complete the reward path. Jansen is usually in my pen each year too, so I might even get him off the market. Great rewards this time.
I'm a terrible BR player, and this might be my option as well. In your experience is it worth trying to grind out the program or just buying the cards in a week when their price drops a little?
You have a month to do the program. It's cake. If you can't complete the side missions its still only 3 wins a day.
I'm definitely going to give it a whirl as the MVP Harper was one of my favorite cards last year. 3 wins a day doesn't actually sound so daunting (famous last words)

Unless they juiced their stats, Harper and posada won’t even be bench bats. Yes posada and Harper both have great swings but look at who they have to compete against.
-
curious what his stats are like..maybe he might replace my castellanos
-
These are auctionable, right?
No shot I'm playing H2H....and I would go 0-12 if I did. But people will be auctioning these, right?
-
Any idea what these cards will go for on the market?

Probably be down around 400K by late evening. Around 250-300K by Friday.

Kinda what I was thinking too. Thanks. Depending on Harper's attributes I may snag him to join Acuna and Trout in my OF. Move Soriano to 2B.

I don’t know why you would say that about posada. Based on his 90 card if they boost his power left to 95 range and power right to 86-90 range his swing and switch hitting probably make him the best catcher. Especially if they give him the pop quirk which probably won’t happen. We will have to see the stats though.
Harper I’m guessing will have bad vs left.

That’s literally every card from here on out except guys in Griffey’s league.

I love harper but i was kinda looking forward to maybe a 99 Mookie Betts.

I’ve never played BR either. I’m struggling online this year especially in events with all the cheese. I’m a decent player 600-700 if I try but no where near as good as many. Can I still do ok enough in BR to get the rewards? I figured I’d only be going up against top players.
Why would you be going against top players if you can't string together wins? You will be able to do the program if you get to rank 700 in RS. Might take you longer but you can definitely do it
I’ve never played it so I was assuming. Definitely going to try it out.

Agree totally.

Holy schnikies........ Gonna be great! Posada, Jansen and Harper, oh my.....
I don't think the posada will be good. He only hit .245 that year against righties.

same. I was hitting great with posada after trying most all the catchers. up until schwarber came out he was my go to.. and even then I didn't get a chance to use schwarber much before realmuto became my starter.

Ok walkers mvp season he hit 366, 49 bombs and 130 rbi’s, 33 stolen bases, is a righty killer and not so against lefties . Harper 330, 42 bombs, 99 RBI’s and 6 stolen bases. Walker is a bench bat at the most, Harper might be a bench bat. As for posada, switch hitter , but defensively is a nightmare. So name three outfielders that Harper is better then, then name 3 outfielders that Harper is better then. Because right now with TA3 has better options. So that’s the truth -
Perhaps but that’s too logical. We need to see the attributes. Walker should have better defense and better speed. So if both are 99 then they will have to juice Harper’s stats against LHP relatively more to make up the difference I think. Harper’s Awards card LY had better stats against LHP than what Walker has TY so stands to reason today’s card will as well. Both will be max against RHP.
And let’s be real, the marginal difference between 99 cards is small so comes down to who you like more. I will almost always prefer a LH hitter and used Harper as my CAP swing LY (switched to Seager TY) so for me, Harper is someone I am likely to do well with and enjoy using. But there is no “right” answer unless we are talking about the eventual 99 Trout as he truly is the meta.
-
Probably just play the br to get all the gold and silver players and buy posada from the market. My experience with br is brutal matchmaking
-
Me likey. As expected they gave him much better attributes vs LHP than Walker and to me this is a W until the true OF 99 beats come out.

Is there a link to his attributes?
