@Blind_Bleeder_PSN Hey, you got your cornerstone captain for S2

Yay - maybe he'll boost speedsters! That would be awesome.

@sbchamps17_NSW you inspired me to buy the Season Awards Elly card

How much was he, I put in a buy order for that Mason Miller seasons awards card but still haven't gotten him

Blind_Bleeder_PSN

@sbchamps17_NSW I got him for 60,701. I should flip him and put in another order for him because his price has dropped.

@Blind_Bleeder_PSN thats the other thing , he has about a 50% steal success , as for hitting , i call him the warning track warrior because if its not a grounder to a infielder its a fly that dies on the warning track , in past installments hes always been one of my favorite cards , very disheartening

That is disheartening. He's doing really well for me right now. I find it so strange how we all hit differently with cards. There are some cards that guys love that I can't get a hit with, and then there are other cards that guys don't like that I do well with. It's very strange.

@Blind_Bleeder_PSN agreed , usually if a card that i know is suppose to be a good performer you just have to gut through a bad phase and then he starts raking the ball , or change his spot in the line up can ignite it , ive tried everything , but when his average went below 100 i benched the card

That happened with me and the 99 Freeman card this year. Normally (in previous years), I couldn't get a hit with him. I used him a little right after I got him and couldn't do a thing, then I needed him to complete a mission and began hitting with him. Now, the card is batting .548 for me. I'm happy that I'm doing well with him, but I'm so used to not hitting with his cards that it feels weird when he comes to bat.

@Blind_Bleeder_PSN That would be my guess. I'm thinking it'll be RH power, LH power, speed and velocity for the S2 captain boosts.

You aren't far off. Hitters with over 84 Speed.
T1 - +5 Contact vs R & L
T2 - +10 Contact vs L & R, +5 PLT Vision
T3 - +15 Contact vs L & R, +10 PLT Vision, +5 Reaction Time

I'm shocked there isn't a speed or steal boost included.

Interesting, it does seem like a speed boost would make sense. I feel like you could probably put together a decent team with those boosts. Though I haven't really looked at what it would be yet so I could be wrong.

For S1 cards - here's mine:

C - J.T. Realmuto
1B - Romy Gonzalez
2B - Brian Roberts
3B - Bobby Witt Jr.
SS - Jimmy Rollins
LF - Lou Brock
CF - Byron Buxton
RF - Eric Davis
DH - Corbin Carroll

Bench - Jackson Chourio
Bench - Trey Lipscomb
Bench - Elly De La Cruz
Bench - Rickey Henderson

I would put Honus Wagner at SS, but I don't have his card (yet).

That would give me T3 (even without Realmuto who just misses eligibility with 81)
