Surprises
Taylor Ward has been insane for me. Started off slow but now he’s great.
Ketel Marte isn’t really a surprise but he’s got the highest average on my team.
Live series Devers really surprised me. I hit better with him than his FOTF.Let downs.
Luis Robert. I don’t hit well with him for some reason. My swing always seems to be late with him. Probably user error,
Kirk Gibson I thought was going to be one of my best hitters. That hasn’t been the case yet, -

I picked Mauer to start the game but he’s not even on the bench now. Switch hitting Panda is behind the plate and I’m surprised by how much power he has compared to his attributes. But hey I’m a Giants fan he will always make my team somewhere. His 97 Daily last year was quickly turned into a P5 99 bomber
Pandas swing is so good and he’s a switch hitter. Kinda like a step down from Posada but still really good.
LOL not really a step down from Posada if Panda runs faster. Some years Posada is good for me other years not and I don't know why. Panda always hits for me. Plus he was on the Giants
You got a point. Panda is faster. Posada has always been clutch for me. Last year Panda shocked me how good his daily moments card was. This year isn’t as OP but still a good card,

Either you thought you'd rake with them and you your bat is all noodle or you've never had success and now you mash.
Gary Carter- last year he was the only 99 from TA4 that I basically never used. His 96 second half card destroys worlds.
Cedric Mullins- I.....can't....hit....anything.
Takahashi - Utley and POTM Crawford so far he's excellent

Proof of what I have always said, some cards play better for people and worse for others, Mullins feels like a glitch for me, just crushes everything. It's why I have never been a big fan of card recommend posts.
Couldn’t agree more. For example someone someone say they can’t hit with jazz and I was honestly very surprised with his card this year because I usually struggle with lefties more than righties but I am currently batting .376 by far better than the rest of my team. One card that I truly struggle with is Jose Ramirez and I know so many people that are in love with that card and I want to be so bad but I just can’t hit. Such is the show…

This is one of the things i love about this game. And it helps w/ lineup diversity. If people have different results with same cards i tend to think it's more player skill than RNG which is a good thing.
I do understand frustrations of some cases where it feels RNG for them but I approach it on a case by case moreso than just outright saying game is total RNG.
Oh btw:
FOTF - Bellinger (Rakes 4 me)
LS Jram - Beast
Yea b me your ways with Jose, I can’t hit with him for the life of me and I want to so bad

LS Will Smith. Batting about 450 and about 40 homeruns. Offline, online isn't my thing.

Any card I use when I actually get a hit…

Yeah, a forum classic "Larkin rips" well then people come in here and complain that they can't use him.
One card maybe great for one and @$$ for another. Always best to find out for yourself. It makes a lot more sense to field your team with guys who have swings you like than to run the best 8 diamonds you have.
For me I want 8 mondesi swings, lol.

Prospect M.J. Melendez and TN Jeremy Pena.

Giants Joc Pedersen hits bombs.POTM not his live series.

LS Zander

Eduardo Escobar. Used him online when I was trying to get the team parallel XP goals in the program.
-
Might seem a tad weird because his big homer years were later on in his career...but 95' AS Jim Edmonds just goes hulk smash on hanging breaking balls inside. And AS Michael Young is absolutely CLUTCH and hits bombs to all fields. It's their stances, I just feel comfortable with them

Kirk Gibson
