Best lead off hitter
-
FOF Whit Merrifeld. It seems like everything he hits is a perfect perfect gapper.
-
Rod Carew or Lou Brock
-
Ellsbury is a great leadoff player can bunt has good contact and power.
-
99 gwynn
-
Gwynn is good, but Brock is destroying the ball for me. A lot of surprising power at the lead off spot to boot.
-
-
FOTF Fernando Tatis Jr!!
-
Mike Trout.

Mike Trout.
purely a fear factor haha I don't feel trout is as good as he should be on this game.. If I could go back and look at all the times I've faced him (50-60 ABs I would say) I have probably only given up 5-10 hits.... yet every time I see him I am still fearful
-
McCutchen was doing well for me, and then I moved him out of leadoff to capitalize on the hits, but had less success. So, now I have put him back in that spot and we will see how it goes again.

I agree from the standpoint of facing him. He is relatively easy to Strikeout. On my DD squad though, he's my anchor in the #3 SPOT!!

I probably should've used him rather than selling him right away when I pulled him a couple weeks back... oh well... What I really should've done in hindsight was LS collected him... I really want that biggio card but now trout/cole/verlander are holding me back... had trout and cole both at one point before deciding I want biggio lol little off topic, but yeah.... lessons learned
-
Rod Carew is a good, cheap option if you need 2b leadoff. He has the highest OPS on my squad
-
Jazz. He’s fast enough I think 87 speed and has power. I’ve liked lead off with more power this year and he’s the one. Used Kemp for a while too
-

FOTF Eric Davis
I hit so well with Davis. Hes my most productive all around players and my team is all 97 and above.
-
Brock has been my #1 for a while now. #1 is the only place in the order he seems to get on base for me.
-
CAP, hitting .450
-
Jackie, Eric Davis, FS Trammell have all been really good leadoff guys.
-
Biggio is my guy now but depending how stacked your team is ive seen some lineups with mantle up top. Not a bad way to start of your game facing him off the bat. Pretty scary
-
99 Jackie for me and it ain’t close.
