Your thoughts on Live Series Arenado
-
I pulled a Live Series Arenado about a week ago and the card seems broken. Really good defensively but with 15 quirks I thought it would be a little more powerful. He is close to the plate which makes it difficult to hit some pitches and making the timing different a little.
Should I keep practicing with him or should I enjoy the ~100k stubs on the market?
-
His stance and swing absolutely suck.
-
I got him from a post-game reward a few days ago, but after a weekend of grinding conquest; I'm torn too. I want to do collections, but I can't hit with him to save my life. I'm in the same boat as you my man.

I bought him off t be market a few weeks ago for 90k and he’s been one of, if not the worst hitter in my lineup. Thought the 15 quirks would be a good thing to have but his swing/stance is awful. I’m also not great at hitting but get by with others
-
First off, I can't hit lol...BUT, he is a pretty effective pinch hit bat for me off the bench vs a lefty. And, he also is a solid defensive replacement at 3B and even 1B if you need. Best wishes!

He's cheeks. Sell immediately
-
I probably used 10 different 3B this year before ultimately deciding to go with the April Monthly Didi Gregorious. I simply could never get any production out of any regular third baseman on the market. Miguel Cabrera in particular was a huge disappointment. Edgar Martinez is nowhere near as good as he should be, either.

i love the card pal up to you

Depends on your outlook. If you are going to do collections, it makes no sense to sell to rebuy him maybe when he is more expensive, unless you want a sense of completion, since you could sell him and complete AL central collection for example and have stubs left over. I pulled scherzer 2 nights ago, I mean 1 he is definitely useable online so it’s slightly different but I plan on finishing collections it doesn’t make sense for me to sell him for 110k when I know I will have to buy again.
Apparently in prestige path there is a LS diamond pick pack.. but most players won’t get there probably until July and I was hoping to work on collections and maybe finish by June so I don’t have time to wait for a price drop
-
In like the second week after release I pulled Arenado and tried to use him in not a fan of the swing. Sold him bought Trout when Trout was far cheaper. Rendon is by far my favorite third baseman.
-
Not a day goes by that I don't want to sell him, but the cost of regaining....ugh. Sounds like you're minds made up, sell him and be happy!
-
he has not been great for me. when completing the "home runs by a 3b, ss, rf" challenege, charlie blackmon got 70% of them
