Is this where I’m supposed to say Hank Aaron is the best card? I wish I could. His stats say he’s one of the best cards in the game. I just can’t get it going with him. I’m not terrible with him but he seems to be late on everything. Everything is opposite field and I know he’s a push hitter but I shouldn’t be late on pitches.
The cards I do like a lot are
Steve Finley 🤯
Jorge Posada
Ray Durham
Wade BoggsI’m surprised no one has mentioned Edgar Martinez. I haven’t used him much but in small sample size he’s legit.
There’s a few that have big huge let downs that I’ve seen on peoples list. I won’t say who because it’s not important. We like who we like and use who works for us.
He actually won the Showdown for me last night with a walk off HR against Cy Young
I use Morgan and McCovey every year because I know their swings. I assume you may be referring to them but for me I crush with them

No. I actually like McCoveys swing a lot. I think he’s a bit underrated tbh. Joe Morgan on the other hand I really wanted to like but I just think he’s not even as close to as good as he was last year.

I’m fine for everyone to sleep on Edgar. Maybe it’s because the M’s are not sexy, but hot [censored], this card rakes.

Yep, he sure does. I've been messing with my rosters a lot with all the new cards and he is definitely in my 3rd base rotation.
For my AL West squad, he pushes monthly Bregman to the bench. Somehow, when you go opposite field with Edgar, it doesn't feel like you're late, he's launching the ball anywhere he wants.
@MRAD2010_XBL good call. When I posted this I forgot about him. He's a beast.
Since starting this thread I've utilized a few others that I'm really digging. AJ Burnett is fantastic, 114 H/9 and touches 100.
Had a lot of fun with McCovey in my lefty/tall guy lineup.
Honestly, Ozzie is my slowest starter but I haven't given him much of a chance.

I think we should talk about Steve Finley. Good Golly. I know it’s the tiniest of sample sizes, but I just threw him into the leadoff spot as I climb out of Spring Training in ranked. The guy went 2/2 with a pair of perfect no doubt bombs to deep right.
He will be staying in the leadoff spot.

Hank Aaron is one of the best cards in the game. He may be my 2B for the rest of MLB22.
Prince Fielder is my favorite 1B. I am raking with him and his small strike zone. I also killed with his first card.
Rickey Henderson was my LF until Pujols dropped. Now he is my pinch runner / defensive replacement.
How is Pujols in left?
He's about the same as Chipper
-
So not great?
I was trying to get Prince into the lineup, but maybe he can just come off the bench.NGL, Edgar and Albert hitting 3/4 seems unfair!
-
Hank, Posada and Gywnn for position players. Pitching I have to go with Glavine and Burnett
-
I've only seen him mentioned once, but Helton has been great for me. In his first game he went 5/5 with 5 HR's. His swing is smooth. Granted it was offline on AS, but he still raked.
-
I used Helton in a BR run. Won 6 games, which is pretty good for me.
Definitely a good card, although I went with Finley from that pack and he has been dynamite. -
