Thoughts on Prime Britton
-
I finally gave up on the Mariano Rivera Experiment and sold him (after I grinded out his prestige stats).
I was beginning to figure him out but he would get shelled far too often.
I sold him and picked up Prime Britton for the event.I have not played online much untl this event and I still only faced him once and he was phenominal.
What are your thoughts on him? -
Yeah I didn't think much of Rivera when I played the event. Hit a bomb off of him with the Bronze Niko Goodrum if that tells you anything. Sorry I don't know about Britton but he seems like he would be good.
-
Britton is not good.
-
I’d disagree. He’s not bad, but he isn’t the lights out guy I remember from 19. He’s still my 2nd lefty out of the pen. But I have preferred to use either LS or SS Chapman in any crucial situation.
-
IF you can control his sinker, Brittan is nasty.

Niko rakes in the event...LOL
He was my SS until I unlocked Dozier. -

One of the best lefties in the game. There’s just not many lefty options. He’s my 3rd lefty behind Chapman and McGee. Not sure who else would be able to replace him.

Saying britton is BAD is overreacting. He’s not nearly as good as expected, but he’s still a decent lefty out of the pen. Not as good as Chapman or Wagner, but after that, he’s pretty much the third or fourth best lefty reliever in the game.
Did you try him in the event?
Or did you face him? -

Mcgee?
I was trying to decide between him and Britton, but I chose Britton because he had higher velocity.
and I did not like his pitch mix.
How good is he? -
I think Britton is the #2 LHP behind Chapman. He has good control, /9s, upper 90s fastball amd sinker plus low 80s slider with good movement is good for me. He's not dominant like Chapman or dibble but if you can afford him I would use him
-
Britton is my best reliever. His slider has so much movement
-
Fingers, Chapman, Rivera, Britton, Wagner, dibble, Rodney are the best relievers in my opinion. McGee would also be a nice option as well.

Really?
I can't wait to try him out !!! -
Britton is very good, second best lefy reliever behing Chapman imo. His sinker/slider combo is more then enough to be dominant for one inning.

Or did you face him?I’ve used him in a large sample size on ranked seasons. In about 40 innings, he has an ERA around five, which is considerably lower than my team ERA.

How good is he?McGee got rocked for me at the start but has became pretty solid for me. Have to be kind of unconventional With his pitch mix. He can dot when you get his release down. I always go to Chapman when I can but McGee is a decent lefty option.
-
His delivery isn’t as deceptive as it was in the past. That being said, he isn’t BAD just not as good as that card would’ve been in the past.
