Iβll be honest heβs really not that much of an upgrade over Nolan Jones at 1B, plus Jones can play multiple positions with a rocket arm. Just my opinion but overall these new legends are pretty exciting to see.
-
People overvalue vision this year. Itβs nowhere near as important as in past years.
-
@TheMoShow__ oh stop it lol Iβm allowed to have an opinion and Thomes is one of my favorites thatβs why I wanted to say something but you literally just complained about somebody complaining
-
Heβs like an upgraded Gorman or Nolan Jones at 1B, and both of those cards rake as is.

I don't know about that, I strike out my fair share with guys like trout and bellinger but I also don't make as many weak outs early in the count with them so I think vision is not very important at all

Could they not find a picture of him wearing a hat or a helmet or a bucket? Something

All the hats or helmets he would have worn had chief Wahoo on them. The MLB banned using that image anywhere. It would have had to been blanked out anyway. This is why Choo has no logo on his helmet on his Prime card.

People still think vision matters this year? The inner PCIβs size is directly correlated to contact, not vision

Yup, i guess old habits die hard for these folks. I completely ignore vision, in fact i am finding i hit better with guys who have lower vision.

Well, this may look like a bad card to you, but it looks like a good card Thome.
-
Skepple the expert. Lol. Sure vision does not matter.

Skepple is a very good player and is correct. Vision only affects the outer PCI which is only useful for fouling off pitches and not striking out

no it won't as contact matters for inner pci. Thome is great and has a great swing to boot. Defense is the only issue as cody b doesn't miss anything over there and thome get's really bad animations here and there.
-
Vision doesnβt matter much at all.
-
The way I see it, thereβs enough RNG in the game where you can put a P/P swing on a meatball With high power stats and still fly out to the warning track. So the way to deal with this is to have more well rounded players - defense, speed, ability to hit both sides well. Thome is a pinch hitter. No way does he compare to Killebrew as a starter. He isnβt that much different than other good 1B bats.

Contact effects the inner pci, vision effects the outer pci which fouls pitches off or gives you weak contact (maybe into a double play) that would otherwise be a swing and a miss
So yes.. vision is irrelevant, welcome to 20, things have changed since 19
-
Yes but there are great attribute cards that are nerfed, and vice versa. Torre always seemed nerfed to me but great attributes.
