    It’s because his boost is far better than the rest. He boosts all relievers….period. You don’t have to curate your foster. Put 7 other relievers in as is required and he max boosts. Definitely the best of those captains by a wide margin.

    Yeah…that’s basically been my pen. Although I’ve really struggled with Diego Castillo…both his free card and the WBC.

    I’ve used LS Chapman and LS Karinchak to mix it up.

    Couldn’t see the value in buying that Rodgers card as he already has 125 H/9 so you don’t even get a boost to that…and he’s been expensive for awhile as one of the only solid lefty relievers that’s not a closer.

    Important to note that Closers don’t get the boost, only non-closer RPs.

    Which bit me in the [censored] when the season started and they made Tanner Houck a starter and AJ Minter a Closer.

    I’m sure value will go down if they ever add that pack somewhere in the game again.

    I’m leaving him in my pen right now just to boost the attributes of breakout Taylor Rogers and Gregory Soto. I was close to taking him out to leave 97 Diego Castillo in my pen, as he’s been really good for me. But it’s probably more important to get Rogers a bit more of a boost in a pinch. As for a decent closer, Lee Smith has actually been very good for me, but I have WBC Williams and Eric Gagne ahead of him now.

    Loaisiga or whatever his last name is, he is very underrated and benefits a lot from that boost

    Does Rodgers benefit much? He is already maxed out in H/9...so he only gets the K/9 boost.

    Yeah, and it’s only a 5 K/9 boost at that since I only have three RPs, including Hoffman, in my pen. Even so, I like my righties far more than my lefties (excluding Wagner, he is incredible), so I’m willing to sacrifice one righty for the boost, even if it is minimal.

    His captain boost is the best one out there right now. There are lots of killer RP that aren't closers. That are better than many 99 closers, imho.

    I love using Hoffmans boost, I really hope Tyler Rogers card coming in today is a RP and not a closer. My lowest h/9 besides Dibble is 113 with Michael King.

    Gregory Soto gets maxed K and H, Joe Kelly gets max hit, Hoffman boosts himself to 125/121. And I still have room for Gagne!

    Does any RP even get outlier in a fastball?

    Looking at them the killer Rap that aren’t closets that better than 99 closers just does not look to be the case. IMHO.

    Are you serious? No outlier?

    Dibble, Soto, Loaisaga, Castillo...

    Really.

    Plut, outlier isn't everything.

    You named 1 person with an outlier fastball. And it isn’t everything but it certainly helps.

    Dibble and ASG Soto both have outlier. WBC Castillo doesn't? WBC Loaisiga doesn't?

    Regardless, with the buff they all have close to 125 hp9 and kp9.

    They have outlier on sinker not fastball. Only dibble has fastball.

    Drrr, okay. Because outlier sinker isn't more meta than outlier fastball???

    The point is -- you were WRONG -- you can the Hoffman boost to fill an entire bullpen with RP killers WITH OUTLIERS and do just fine.

    103 mph+ outlier is the meta. Lol you just argue to argue and you think you’re the smartest guy in the room. You aren’t buddy. Catch a block and go argue with your mom for your jollies because I’m tired of seeing your waste of time responses. Have a good life. Use Hoffman. You the man.

    That's funny that you think outlier FB is meta, moreso than outlier sinker. Good luck!

    Ah, I see that we were going back and forth in the thread about packs being scams. Forget this thread. Your argument over there REALLY sucks. Not that hard to be the smartest person in the room if you're the one I'm arguing against...=)
