Random Favorite Players
-
While I’m currently unable to play, I’m wondering what random players everyone has found that they just like for one reason or another?
The last two years I loved playing with Future Stars Bret Baty (even though it pained me as a Braves fan). At the beginning of 23 I also really liked WBC Lars Nootbar.
Anyone who isn’t a standard 99 Diamond that you’re seeing success with or just liking at this early stage?

I'm really liking the Ha-seong Kim free card from the pack store. I already have him to P2, he's fast and gets on base alot for me

I’m excited to try him out since he’s one of the few guys I’ve been able to obtain. I’m glad to hear that he seems like a fun player to use
-
I'm raking with live series Rafael Devers. He's my best hitter so far.
Also the Tim Raines card from completing the Expos is really good for me. -
The 84 gold Willi Castro. Easily my best card in BR and Ranked so far. His defense is suspect in my opinion so I have him at DH at the moment, but there isn't a player I'd take him out for. Not even Babe but that's mainly because I'm always awful with Babe. The captain Mondesi card comes in 2nd
-
Spring Breakout Series Kyle Manzardo for me
-
Carlos Correa, Houston's TA card. New swing this year, serious pop even though his power is only in the 70s.
-
The gold version of Raffael Palmeiro os raking for me, 23 home runs now, i have him at P3
-
Silver Austin Hayes hits as well as anyone in the game - plus decent fielding.
-
89 Charlie Blackmon from TA. Have a really good squad yet he’s my lead off and best hitter.
-
Silver LS C Jake Rogers, Tigers. Grinding AL Central TA was not easy with the lack of power, but with Buxton captain boost, he hit nothing but dingers.
-
Barrier Breaker Toni Stone is the best 2B in the game.
-
Gold Willie Castro, Gold Jorge Soler, LS Brandon Lowe. With the Buxton Boost they're unstoppable. The Gold TA Collection Carlos Pena is pretty Clutch too.
-
@yankblan I haven't gotten to use LS Jake Rogers yet this year, but last year he was my go to catcher in BR. Loved that card.
-
For some reason the Garrett Hampson LS card has just been getting on base for me. Moved him to lead off just because of it.
-
@Skarmaen I always enjoy Correa cards especially on the Astros, I am not liking his new swing, he still hits ok enough but that weird dip or whatever the new hitch is seems strange.
-
@MrDeweyCoXX I liked Correa's old swing too but have done better with this one so far (and overall I'm struggling to hit with most cards this year...just another year of wear and tear on my old eyes I guess).
I saw some posts about other swings being changed (Trout was mentioned many times) and I'm wondering if some of the changes were even intended.
