capardo_XBL

You forgot Craig Biggio

capardo_XBL

Ha! Don’t have him yet.

MRAD2010_XBL

If you’re talking primary second baseman I’ll say

Craig Biggio
2.Chase Utley
Vidal Brujan
4.Andres Jiminez
5.Jose Altuve

I almost put Joe Morgan over Altuve but Altuve has legit power.

Also Jackie will most likely be #1 as soon as I get him but Biggio is a beast for real.

samguenther1987_PSN

Top 5 in no order

Craig biggio
Joe Morgan
Jackie Robinson
Jose Altuve
Chase Utley

Although honorable mention should go to

Nolan Gorman
Vidal Brujan
Andres Gimenez
And Ryan Sandberg

I have Ketel Marte at 2nd. I don’t have Jackie, and I haven’t been able to play in a couple days, so I don’t Biggio yet either. Though I may use Biggio at the C position.

Altuve has, as they say, light tower power. He’s not a big guy, but he has thunder …

Possum80_MLBTS

Is Gimenez 2B primary or SS? I’ve had him at 2B since I P5 retired Altuve, and he’s been pretty solid

Jackie- I gave him the edge over Biggio because of speed.
Biggio- could easily be one because he has catcher eligibility. Both Jackie and Biggio will be on my roster for a long time.
MA- Carpenter- yes I know this is not his primary but you won't play him in the OF or 3rd because of all the other God tier cards there so he gets 2b. Sweet swing with pop just a little slow.
HrD JoRam- again secondary but 3rd is too crowded as is. He is a switch hitter with power and great active quirks. Loved his LS, HRD card is even better. If I'm looking for power I'm playing him over the first 3 guys I listed.
Chase- he as good for me but at the time I expected more because I unlocked him early. He was also a lefty when the meta was still lefty starters.
FoTF- Jazz- had to put him on the list for sentimental reasons. The guy balled out until I unlocked Utley. He was fast and was a lefty that could hit lefties. Excited about his next card for sure.
Most SS with 2b secondary. Prospect DE la Rosa, LS Tatis, any Seager card. SS was always an issue in the past but it is becoming a depth position where 2b has to be a place where you stash someone. I'm also played LS Judge and Finest Brett at 2nd, they did fine. By the end of the yearb might have one of the 99 OFs there. Trout can play 2b right?

Javier Baez (although I play him at SS)
Biggio
Gimenez (AS card)
JRamirez (HRD while not his primary he does fine)

I loved that Jazz card too. Also for a while I was playing Shortstops at second. Before Biggio came out I was running De La Cruz at SS and Swanson at second. De la Cruz is so good.

I really need to try that Baez card. I always loved his cards.

Jackie Robinson and Joe Morgan are my top 2 each year
Then Francisco Lindor when it drops

Right now I just got Chase Utley so I’ll use him until I get my favorites

Ki113r Be3z_XBL

Jackie Robinson is my 2nd favorite player all-time, so once he's available, he's my 2B until the next game comes out. Honorable mention this year goes to 2022 AS Gimenez, who was definitely a pleasant surprise.

Ericulous1_PSN

Thanks for all the input. I just got Biggio and Jackie and haven't used them much yet. I'll get a chance later today to really give them a go.

Other than them, my favorites are:

Jose Altuve POTM
Chase Utley Prime
Joe Morgan Takashi
Andres Gimenez AS 22
And SS who I move over.

Is Joe Morgan as good at getting on base as he was last year?

Yeah. Joe Morgan is really solid. He doesn’t have the pop like he did last year but I have noticed he comes up with clutch hits all the time. I played a mini season and he hit 3 walk off home runs in the same season. I probably should’ve put him in place of Vidal Brujan. Thinking on it now he probably is better.

cosmic_wonders_PSN

That’s also not 99 Joe Morgan so I wouldn’t compare to last years just yet

capardo_XBL

I can’t wait to get biggoi, if he is anything like his Moment for July.

Literally, two pitches. Two homers. Literally.
