There is no true answer to give outside of construct it with a combination of the top 99 guys you enjoy using but the lay well with at same time. There are some top “end game” cards that just don’t work for people while others are incredible with them
Yup. Through about 50 at-bats each online, I’m batting .180 with Trout and .455 with Kyle Tucker. At some point, it starts to mess with my head when they go up to the plate.
I'm the same with Babe and Ketel Marte. I'm hitting under around .150 with Babe but absolutely rake with Marte. He's hit like 15 homers in around 50 ab's

You're right of course, I guess I'm looking for suggestions of the new cards because I haven't really used any of them yet. The only Program Finest I've used is Tatis because I wanted to make TA5 last so I didn't use any of the players with missions. I also haven't used Trout, Pujols, McCovey, Trea Turner Finest, Bryce Finest, Foxx, any of the 20 Finest cards from set 1 and 2, Ripken, Machado, Parker or pretty much any card that was released within the last 6 weeks or so (except for Griffey).
I put together 6 rosters, 1 for each division and have used them for all of TA5. Now I'd like to start a new roster comprised of only players released in the last 6 week or so.
So, if you have any players who you think will absolutely mash, or especially pitchers you enjoy, I'd love to hear suggestions.
Mainly, it's really slow at work and I need my baseball fix.
So far.....I'm adding Kyle Tucker hahaha. Thanks @Mike__Honcho_361
I already said it in my first post but Ketel Marte has an unbelievable swing, he's been my best hitter since I got him. Highly recommend.

Oh yeah, both Marte's are on my radar but since I asked for the reccomendation, Ketel is the second player to make the squad.
Keep em rolling. I haven't even really tried Babe yet hahaha.

Lightning Votto absolutely mashes but his speed of 30 hurts him. Regardless McCovey has always been my guy since 2016 for 1B in this game lol

Oh lightning Votto is one of favorites. If I have guys on base he ropes doubles all day and if nobody is on, he hits tanks.
But just for you, I'm gonna put McCovey at 1B

I have never been a God squad guy, I used 6 completely different rosters just for TA5. But I saved the Maps and have decided to create a whole new squad of all the new 99s from TA5 and the last month or so like Griffey, Pujols, Trout, Trea etc to grind them?
How would you construct this team?
No this was not intended as a humble brag. I am missing Alomar and will never get him so I am a pleb and nothing more hahaha.
But seriously....who should go on this team?
Polonco may be the best player in the entire game. You will forget Alomar ever existed

Give him a try you might just like him. If he doesn’t work for you there are plenty of great 1B’s to choose from

If you don't have Trevor Story somewhere on that roster, you're doing it wrong.

Which Trevor Story...HRD or Awards?
I'll admit, I've never really given either a chance, but the point of this thread was to take advice on who to add from the last 6 weeks... buuuuut, since I've never really tried either Story card, I'll toss him in the ring.
So far I have:
Kyle Tucker- Finest
Ketel Marte- Finest
Willie McCovey- prime
Trevor Story- HRD or Awards. -

And add Jorge Polanco.

Ditch McCovey ( sorry Jeff) and give Todd Helton a chance. Dude is so underrated and kills from both sides

Oh for sure. Todd Helton is my NL West 1B and absolutely mashes. I agree he is underrated. I've loved both his cards. I'll add him to the roster as a bench bat since I've never used McCovey.

An all-time team from the past six weeks. That’s an interesting approach. If you’re going ever since TA-5, then most of them will be finest. I know the top finest would like be a mix of Soto, Freeman, Tatis, Trout, Turner, Tucker, Marte (Ketel and Sal), Sal Perez, Polanco and Winker. Don’t sleep on Gurriel, Posey, Riley and Semien.
Other recent of course Pujols, McCovey, Ripken, and you have to try that new Blackmon (Rhys and Bell, too, I guess).

Finest Brandon Crawford. I'm absolutely Murdering the ball with him. Speeds is suspect, but who needs speed when you're trotting around the base paths. Finest Jeimer Candalario has also been tearing the cover off the ball.
