Super Utility cards
-
I assume Finest Ketel Marte is the king when it comes to these kinds of cards, but who else is out there for this? I always like having positional flexibility, so guys like M
-
I have honus, I liked using the 95 bench bc he could go most spots.
-
For positional flexibility nobody beats Honus
-
The only card that could be better than Honus as a super utility is a SS Zobrist, but only because Honus would be starting
-
I vote for Ketel also mostly because of his power and switching hitting. He doesn't have Honus' defense but you know he can always face any pitcher.

Not as a switch hitter.

Doesn't need to be a switch hitter, has great contact and good power vs both side, switch hitting is a farce but that's another conversation for another time.
-
Anyone who has Honus and doesn't have them in their main lineup is doing it wrong

Different strokes and all that but it's not a farce for everyone. You vote Honus and that's cool but it's not unanimous for Honus. I take Ketel all day and hit better with him over Honus. I take Ketel all day but you don't have to.

You'd be pretty hard pressed to find people that are taking Ketel over Honus, also if you use zone hitting and strike zone camera, switch hitting is irrelevant. You don't even see the batter and you're moving a dot to a ball..

Not hard pressed, because you just found one. And I use those settings and he has been a better hitter for me. I just like his swing better. It really bothers you that much that someone disagrees? Honus is a great card but I prefer Ketel and I like his switch hitting.

Ok lol

Not a switch hitter, but Finest McNeil is pretty solid vs righties and lefties, and has decent positional flexibility.

Surprised PS Foxx hasn't been mentioned yet. His C eligibility means you can use him as a Pinch Runner for a C on base without having to double switch. He may not steal bags, but at least he isn't a liability on the base paths (most catchers are very sloooooow) and you can count on his bat next time through the order.
-
Finest Danny Santana also deserves some mention as well
-
Tops now Eduardo Escobar should be included

If you take Ketel over Honus you're probably not all that great at this game... Or you just don't have Honus at all. Honus is a top 5 overall player in the game, not only is his bat great but his speed and defense outweighs a majority of players in this game especially Ketel. Mr.Marte has been pulled in finest packs and sold 3 times for me and since the 4th time pulled he's got a nice spot in my inventory, where he'll never get an inning of playing time on my God squad. I didn't grind for 4 months to get Ketel haha.
