Got My First Chase Card -- 30/30 Trout -- Keep or Sell?
-
@Blind_Bleeder that elly card is so over hyped, hes super tall as well.
-
Is Mantle/Commerce Comet better than Trout?
-
@RAlanSlavens
Depends on how much you value switch hitters. I think trouts swing is amazing and I hit great with him righty righty
-
I personally like the finest Trout card and the finest Elly card, but I have to admit that I also don't have those 2 from the chase packs
-
I like the Finest Elly and Trout cards, too. But I don't have a Mantle or any other rarity like that except for DeGrom (who I purchased when his price came down).

I once thought that too. I liked the (Chase) card's speed in defense, but wasn't sure about his hitting. However, after using his last two cards, I can see why his card(s) get the hype.He has a quick, compact swing to go along with power. This leads to a lot of doubles and triples, along with his share of HRs. Being a switch-hitter, someone has to come across the plate to jam him, which he is still fight off. I usually do not go for tall hitters either, but ironically, four of my best hitters this year are Stanton, Judge, Bellinger, and Elly...

@xElRojo44x to always each their own, I could never get into elly cause of the height and not having any quirks,

@chucky97___
True... some hit with Mantle, but not me...yet. Weird.
And yes, quirks should not be underestimated. -
@xElRojo44x i cant touch the ball with mantle lol

Played all season, completed almost all programs and TAs, have opened dozens of Chase packs and just today pulled my first Chase card -- 30/30 Trout S4. Very happy, but I'm debating keeping him or selling him and picking up 3-4 other god squad type cards like Cycle Elly and Kaiju Mauer and Finest R.Johnson. Would I be a fool to sell 30/30 Trout? Is he just THAT good (his swing is amazing on his other cards)? Note that I do have most of the usual suspect program cards like 99 Lightning Belli, 40/70 Acuna, etc.
Keep him he’s the best card in the game. Attributes couldn’t be any better and his swing is smooth there’s nothing on the market better than that
-
Chipper jones best card imo.
-
Congrats, I pulled Reggie Jackson as my only Chase pull.

This year's all Switch Hitter team is amazing. Last year I tried to do it and there were holes. So many good cards to fill this roster.
