BEST GEMS IN SHOWDOWNS

[goldenchild1118]

I’ve been taking with certain overlooked players in showdowns. For some reason they have juiced responses. List your showdown must haves:

AL EAST- Arron Hicks- hrs like crazy
NL WEST- Eric Thames - clutch hits and hrs
AL CENTRAL - Naquin and Buxton - hit gaps for triples
AL WEST - La Stella double and triples, with crazy clutch hitting

Anybody else??

[theu715_PSN]

AL East - Brandon Lowe, Jose Martinez
AL West - La Stella (agreed), Mitch Haniger (sp?), Tod Frazier vs lefties

I've mostly just played those two Showdowns.

Miguel. Sano.

Only done AL West really. I never pass on La Stella. I have a lot of success with Jason Castro, Choo, and Upton too

Dee Gordon is strangely very useful too. He always seems to be gifted a meatball down the middle his first at-bat. When he's on base I receive a lot of pitchouts too

[yeahlexx_PSN]

I’ve completed the AL west showdown like, 7 times, (Otahni, Correa, Olson)

AL West studs:
Pitchers:
-Heany or manea (1 of them, you only need 1 starter)
-Diekman, LeCerc, Osuna, petit out of pen.

Batters (minus the diamonds cause obvi)
-Danny Santana
-LaStella
-Olson
-seager
-Hannager
-Khris Davis
-Guzman

Avoid Joe Adell

In AL West, La Freaking Stella is a beast. Also am having great clutch hitting from Mark Canha.

Ryan O’Hearn for the AL Central - nice swing with surprising pop.

Choo for the AL West. Mitch Haniger slaps too.

[goldenchild1118]

Forgot about Dee Gordon. Somehow he get on base with 50 mph slow rollers up the middle. Agree with choo also. Hiring gaps

I inevitably wind up with Haniger but don’t rotate him in. I’m gonna give home a shot

[Bob_Loblaw1984_PSN]

AL East - Teoscar Hernandez was an absolute beast for me.

AL Central - No hidden gems really, just so many excellent power bats available (Encarnacion, Jimenez, Garver, Sano, Cruz, etc.)

AL West - LaStella.

Haven’t touched showdown besides the AL. Completing the AL East 7 or 8 times burnt me out.

Dee Gordon, Mallex Smith and the man, the myth, the legend Willie Calhoun

LaStella is a bad [censored] I love that guy he hits the ball hard and has great vision

[ImDFC_PSN]

NL East. Jay Bruce, Harold Ramirez
AL East. Aaron Hicks
AL Central. Any corner outfield named Eloy or Jorge
AL West. Mark Canha, Willie Calhoun

[DriveByTrucker17]

AL West: Mitch Haniger, Mark Canha, Justin Upton, Khris Davis, Willie Calhoun, Kyle Seager, Robinson Chirinos, Tommy La Stella

NL Central: Ian Happ, Kyle Schwarber, Aristides Aquino

[mission-8-_PSN]

AL Central Franmil Reyes is a really good bronze

[Hikes83_PSN]

Vogelbach was so clutch for me as a cheap bronze

[wdieterich1310]

I loved Jose Martinez, rakes lefties and hit better than a bronze against righties too. Especially since the al East showdown has so many lefty pitchers. Soooo many

[DeckerCurtis2002]

Mark Canha for sure.

[goldenchild1118]

The best part of Jose Martinez and franmil Reyes is that they end up on the roster even if you don’t draft them in many cases. Martinez in al East I a monster against sale in the second boss battle
