Cards that pleasantly surprised you
-
Lou Brock, Kris Bryant, Andrew McCutchen, Matt Kemp. I figured they'd all be good but they have far out performed expectations
-
Eddie Rosario, batting .673 with 62 Hr, 117 RBIs, ETC.

I find events is usually when you try cards not in your ranked lineup and you’re so surprised that they get into your ranked team
I laughed at 99 Matt kemp, but the card absolutely takes, great defense and speed
Also Fernando is so fun to use, I didn’t think a junk baller could be effective, but he’s so hard to time up
I said when the 6th inning program dropped that Kemp would be a beast, I wasn’t wrong, at least for me he has been fantastic. Sig Justin Turner is my favourite card this year, which surprised me because I thought 3rd base would be easy to find someone who could replace him, but I just can’t take that swing out my lineup.

Kris Bryant at P5 is legitimately one of the best cards in the game

90 Justin Turner Monthly Award. I do better with him over his 96 Signature card and even my regular 3B 99 Award Wade Boggs. I have no idea why, but I do.
-
TN Ryan McMahon. Just put him on your squad and you'll see.
-
Castellanos for me.
-
John Olerud signature is so good, such a good swing,
On the opposite side.. my Milestone Hank Aaron.. I cannot hit with..
-
John Lester No Hitter, Shane Baz Topps now are great cards. I love Aldeberto Mondesi. I dont use him much outside of BR.
-
Eduardo Escobar, poor man's Chipper Jones and still in my lineup. All-Star Card.

TREA TURNER

TREA TURNER
Trea didn't surprise me at all
-
Matt Kemp for sure was easily one of my best hitters.
Kris Bryant is insane
George Brett was better than Chipper for me.
Rod Carew is a real sleeper. Don’t let the power stats fool you. He slaps.
Keibert Ruiz
Jake Cronenworth might be a top 5 second baseman.
I change my lineup almost every time I play so there’s a lot of great cards that aren’t meta,Lou Brock is a god
I’m batting almost .400 with Whit Merrifield too. He was surprisingly good. Also he gets to every ball hit it seems. -
Playing Events and then playing (RS) makes cards play totally different.
-
99 Thome. Only a few games but I have 9 homers and am batting over 600 with him in 8 RS games. Before that then probably 99 Adley. I sucked with his 90 but now I am less than 1000 points away for 99 superfractor adley
-
42 Series Yordan Alvarez....period.
I hit Homers in my first 5 at-bats with him. Never looked back.
[censored] well better get a 99 Postseason....only good side to my sox losing.
