So I got Yelich a few days ago and I’m trying to figure out I should use him in my lineup or not. He’s good. He’s really good but….he’s not better than Vlad Sr. He’s not better than Harper. He’s not better than Kemp. He’s not better than Mantle. He’s a top 10 outfielder but is he worth keeping?

Only if you're a fan, or into collecting everything.

If you're planning on playing the continuation of the Event today, keep him and use him there.

I'm starting him in LF, probably end game for me, mainly because I'm a Brewers fan and he's my favorite player lol. Otherwise maybe he'd make my bench but that's it with so many good OF. Can't take Vladdy out of RF, he's soooo good and I'm a fan of him too.
Also, it's weird to me how many people struggle with Mantle. He's been legit probably my best hitter since I've gotten him and a total 5 tool player.

I mean I don’t want to take Yelich out either. His swing is so good but like you said he’s not better than Vlad. Vlad might be the best player in the game. Also I don’t understand the Mantle struggle either. He does nothing but hit homers for me. Even when Im late on pitches he hits them out opposite field.

Platoon him with Vladdy daddy

I already hit parallel V with Vlad. Once I max a guy out I sit him down for a while. I’ve been rotating Yelich,Kemp,Mantle and Minoso lately. Minoso is never talked about but he’s good.

I'm late on everything when using Mantle. His swing is too slow.
-
Yelich is just as good as Harper, Bellinger, etc.
-
He's going to be my go to pinch hitter, up until now that was Walker. My outfield at this point is now, Eric Davis in Left, Mantle in Center, and Vladdy Daddy in Right.

You name-dropped 4 outfielders who you prefer using, and there will certainly be more to come. Sell.

The real question I should’ve asked is do you guys think he’s worth a spot as a starter? He is good. If he had better contact vs left he would be incredible,

Imo contact vs left isn't all that important. You will see Kershaw just because people want to use him for that amount of stubs or the occasional Leiter still. Chapman in the pen, but 90% of pitchers you face are right handed

I'd sell him for sure. His price is weirdly high right now for a card still in pack circulation and we will be flooded with headliners at some point again and that will force him to drop. Unless you are a Brewers fan or just a super fan of Yelich or you are around that 5 million and are just hiding money in cards but even at that there's better plays.
