Arenado/Musial/Arrieta

I finally got a BR pack. I have all of the "big names" at this point, so is any one of these guys off the charts compared to the others?

Haven’t used any but Musial always seemed to hit well, for whatever thats worth with hitting in its current state.

Out of the 3 I have done the best with Musial. His swing is great. Obviously there is like 50 99 rated 1B(I wouldn’t play him in the OF), but he could def make a great bat off the bench.
I have only used Arrieta a few times. He actually got hit pretty bad on Legend(literally my only Legend game this year) and then I think he had 1 ok game in HOF. Need to use him a few more times to get a better feel for him.

They are all solid but Arenado snags everything and can shoot the ball over left field wall and into the gap on anything. He's a lazer show

Musial has a great bat. Used him at first until I got Gehrig and then moved him to LF. Yea, his defense is terrible though.
Arrieta is a solid pitching option. Definitely wouldn't put him with DeGrom and probably Verlander but very good 4th/5th option.
-
Musial is probably my favorite bat in the game...just have to deal with the defense and decide where you have room for him.
-
Arenado has pop and a nice swing…perfect defense. His stance crowds the plate though unfortunately…which I can’t stand.

I just bought Arenado today (sold off Francisco Lindor and decided to try Chipper at SS) and in my first game with him in the lineup -- he hit two absolute no-doubters. The ball seemed to jump off his bat. He's pricey but as one of my favorites of all-time, he looks to be worth it for me.
I also have used Jake Arrieta for a few starts before I sold him off to get Verlander. Honestly, I really loved this Arrieta card when I had it. I haven't gone against him yet but he seems like he would be someone who would give me fits at the plate. His sinker felt similar to Corey Kluber's from The Show 20. It almost feels heavy out of his hand, if you know what I mean.
As for Musial, I haven't heard much about him nor am I interested in him.
