Sale vs. Eckersley
-
I took Eckersley. Very rare a relief pitcher has that good of a Strikeout vs walk ratio

I think Sale is filthy and has a bigger impact on your team when he’s in the game. To be completely honest I think Sale is a top 3 pitcher in the game and maybe even higher.
I agree. He's just plain nasty. I really liked his earlier Lightning card.

I thought Eck cards were generally considered trash in the game-- too easy to see his release point and pick up pitches.
I know I have a lot of success against him in years past.
Every year I give him a shot and usually regret it one game later. Haha -

I'm down to my last two Fall bosses after picking the Babe, Junior and Foxx. I will definitely take Guererro. For the last one, I'm going between Sale and Eckersley. I have different reasons for wanting each one. I'm a Red Sox fan, but I saw Eck pitch several times in Oakland and he was devastating (even if I wasn't always rooting for him). I'm really torn between the two. I've seen comments here that people have had issues with Eck 99. Would you take Eck or Sale?
What do you need more. A top RH reliever, or a top starting pitcher? I haven’t got as far as you but I picked Griffey first, I will definitely take Foxx and Babe, but I don’t know where to go from there my self. I don’t need Mauer or Lindor, but Eck, Sale, and Vlad Guerrero I do want. Who is the 9th player I didn’t list?

I did Gibson, Vlad, Ecks, Jr, and Foxx.
I had to get Ecks, Jr, and Foxx for the Rollins collection. Vlad is always a great RF choice for me and Gibson has been my favorite pitcher on here since my first year.
That being said, I'm glad those are the five I chose. For me, Foxx is a better hitter than Mauer and good enough as a catcher, Gibson is lights out, Vlad is a monster, Ecks gives a hard throwing right hander to compliment all my lefties, and Junior is a nice lefty PH with decent speed.

I would take Eck because bullpen arms have a longer lifespan. I still wish I grabbed Wagner over Chipper Jones. Batters seem to cycle in and out plus their are some many more great hitters then bullpen arms.

I thought Wagner was an easy choice over Chipper. Wagner is always the best LH reliever (Chapman now is up there), but there are always choices as good or better at 3rd. Not that Chipper is a bad card or anything, I just feel Wagner has more value for my team.

Wow. Wags is 388K???
Glad I got him at 166K or so after picking Chipper back then.
I did pick Sale over Rollie, but my last pack i took Fingers. -
