Looking for a new leftfielder and foster seems like a good relatively affordable option. Anyone have any reviews on him? How’s his swing?
-
His swing worked well for me..hit right over .400 in like 60 or so online abs. But his defense got me 3 or 4 times so I had to pull him. His D doesnt look that bad on his card, but at least for me, it was brutal.
-
I like Dylon Carlson better.... switch hitting helps..
I tried a few games with Foster, and he didn't play that well for me.

Honestly didn’t think his defense would be awful Based on his attributes but i feel like defense in general this year is a total crapshoot.
Was really curious about his swing since he’s a new card this year and not a super popular name. Have yet to run into anyone using him Online

I had some pretty good success with his prospect card early in the year. His future stars card looks really well rounded too. No real deficiencies. Maybe I’ll try him out

I wanted to love Carlson. Cards fan, he’s a switch hitter with great offensive ratings and his defense is really solid. Alas, I could not generate any power with him. Hit for high average and a lot of doubles but I think i homered with him once in 20+ games. He had warning track power for me.
I’d like to try him again. I got Dawson and put him in CF where Carlson was. Dawson has been amazing. But that Carlson card still intrigues new. Too pricey for a bench bat though.

Nah, trust me what @DUCEDUBS24 said, I've experienced this too. I used him last season in RS and his fielding animations were absolutely brutal the entire season. Just a FYI that he seems prone to horrible animations.
Edit: To answer your question I think his swing is really solid, you shouldn't have a problem offensively. His exit velos were consistent for me, I hope the same for you if you try

Ok I appreciate the feedback. Might have to look at Carlson or another option if fosters defense is that bad

What’s your outfield looking like?
-
I haven't used the FS Carlson, but if it's too pricey, the prospect one is collect reward for the diamond prospects,9 I think, and he's smashed for me, .417 avg lots of xbh a few hrs, since I haven't done STL inning yet those are mostly the vs cpu on AS missions.

I’ve got potm belli in center and walker in right. I had hrd cespedes in left but it just didn’t seem like the ball jumped off his bat for me. I’ve got Minnie at 3rd so I guess I could move back to left and find a 3rd baseman
