    I'm looking at the HRD Ripken and wondering how players rate him compared to the other top (non CAP) shortstops. So, a question for the forumers: rank these cards
    HRD Cal Ripken
    99 Barry Larkin
    99 Ernie Banks
    PotM Correa
    PotM Didi Gregorious

    Banks
    Didi
    Correa
    Ripken
    Larkin

    Vs left handed pitching Larkin is great but just don’t have the pop vs righties. Cals swing stinks. He looks great on paper but he is the consensus worst swing in the game pretty much every year

    Have not used Ernie but this is my ranking
    Ripken
    Didi
    Larkin
    Correa

    Then banks can fall in somewhere when I use him...
    I love Ripken though

    Banks
    Didi-hes 2nd because I love lefties
    Correa-reverse splits
    Larkin-only really effective against lefties
    Ripken-polarizing because you either love his swing or think its the worst swing in the game.

    So far the only consensus is that Larkin is at the bottom, and Banks is near the top.

    I rake with Larkin and Correa, sucked with Didi. Haven't tried Banks or Cal.

    I forgot to add in Yount as an option! Where does he slot in to everyone's rankings? Still behind Banks?

    Not sure about everyone else but I would slot him in behind Correa ahead of Larkin.

    I hit 5 straight HR's with Yount in the event. never done that with any other players! I would put Yount at the top when you add in the diamond defense. The only one I haven't tried is Banks, but not a fan of that D at SS. Never used Correa.

    Han ram is the best bat at shortstop. I personally love his swing. Defense can let you down but he will surprise you with the plays he makes.

    It's a small sample size size, but I've loved hitting with FOTF Michael Young. Has GREAT contact and enough power to got the occasional HR and plenty of XBH. He recently replaced Brujan at SS for me.

    I like Ernie Banks better than I thought I would. Larkin was my entrenched shortstop before I got him, and sadly I don't think he's gonna make it back to the lineup. Banks is insane offensively. Larkin is better defensively.

    I'm surprised no one has put Mondesi in the mix.
