I used to run Chipperbat third and thought all was great, but the more I have played I have realized that defense shows itself in subtle ways. Someone like Chipper doesn't really make errors at short, but he will not get to near as many balls as a stronger defensive player.
Yeah, the more I think about it I think the move might be playing Wander at SS and putting Chipper on the bench.
I have been trying out Brooks Robinson at third…..extra innings, runner on 3rd, two outs and he hits a dribbler to third. Brooks goes into the barehanded throw animation and whiffs for the loss lmao. What’s the point of using Brooks Robinson if he doesn’t make that play?

Fielding animations are the ultimate rng. That's why i just leave chipper at third. I'm convinced it doesn't matter how good the fielding attributes are, it's all about what animations you get.

If you’re using Chipper as a pinch hitter, I mean, I don’t even know what to say lol. He’s probably the best hitter in the game. Gold defense at 3rd..switch hitter

NO, he's not even on my bench, when asked what card was your less favorite of the year, this is it.

Sig Justin Turner made one of the best defensive plays I have seen in this game all year and from my DD team in 3 years at least, last night. I wish I knew how to upload replays because it was a web gem.

I just get bored and like to try new players since I have chipper at P5. Thanks for calling me a clown over my lineup decisions…..

That's all subjective. Miggy, Castellanos and Vlad all hit better for me than Chipper. I'm sure there are more that are hitting better too. Also trying new cards makes the game a little more fun if you're not trying to hit 110 mph wiffle balls. Hell, I could probably list 50 people in the game I hit better than Chipper with. Trea, Franco and Xander also.

ASG Xander is a great card for me, I may just throw him back in my line up.

How would you know if you like a card like Brooks if you don’t give him a run? I don’t give a rats A if I lose a game. I don’t need to have the best possible player at every position and bunt dance/hold R2 every time I line out.

Once I make WS, I will try different cards for a while after tanking back to HOF to see if I like them. I am hitting around .280 with Morgan but I am still trying him out. Think around .360 with Votto. Like to give around 100 ab's. That way, I know who to choose when making my run the following season.

[censored] I just put my favorite players in and play the with them. Then sometimes run like an angels team.
