Out of Position Series 🤮
-
Love it!
-
I haven’t really used them yet but I will say they made a great love making CQ and mini seasons so you can use your whole roster and also get TA credit

I've only tried five pitchers so far. Now that I have them all unlocked, I'll try more. The only one I've liked so far, was the RP Riley Greene. Hated Trout, Elly was more funny to play with than useful, and the others weren't memorable at all. 1/5 is not a bad percentage. My biggest problem with the "position players" is that they are all slow. None will be on my for long unless I find a Bernie Williams or real Elly like card.

Highlights of my first 2 games using them,which was ta 3 mini seasons games(on veteran) Mariano hit one caught at the wall under the milb flag in cf at laughing mountain then hit one into the upper bullpen,hbp and stole a base in game 2.
Trout pitched against both Aaron and Harper,which was awesome(Aaron hit a go ahead RBI single,Harper struck out)
Doc was 2 for 2 in game 1, Ryan hit a walk off homer in game 2.
Overall it's been pretty fun,I get what they were trying to do with this and I think they nailed it. -
I have 2 games left in the conquest map then onto TA mini seasons, so far Degrom is 3-3 for me so far, Harper has been hitting everything and all the pitchers that I have from TA have been great for me as well. So I definitely agree that this new series is great

Fun series, just get over/past new positions and enjoy these beefy stats on some of these cards. So many IMO play well above their numbers. Janson, Skenes and Harper have been a blast (pun intended).

Blackmon & Machado will remain in my bullpen. They've been shockingly good. Manny pitched an immaculate inning on Vet in CQ in Philly!
deGrom will remain my backup SS. Randy is great, but more doubles than homers. Dude is clutch af, though.
I can't hit with C Bryce, but rake with his LS. Go figure.
I finished the map, and TA. 125K got me many remaining TA packs. I probably won't try the last 8 I unlocked, but did enjoy this more than I thought. -
Very fun card series.
Were people really expecting a new pool of Legends to be dropped for S3? Otherwise, it would have just been the same names in the same positions we've seen many times already. The game is far from perfect, but they have handled the context very well since right before the All-Star break. This is a fun way to freshen things up. The entire DD mode is 100% fantasy-based anyway so not sure why so many are so offended regarding the "realism" of the OOP series.

I'm starting to come around on this program. I had been on the side that wanted realism, but this is an interesting way to get people to know more about the players. A lot of these players were recruited by college or drafted / signed for playing these positions. Plus, they have been releasing Topps Now cards for position players who pitched for the last couple years.

So tired of this
