Foxx, Sale, or Gagne?
-
Don't post here often but could really use some advice on what will most likely be my last big purchase of the year. This is my current roster:
1-Honus
2-Chipper/Bregman
3-Ruth
4-Pujols/Gehrig
5-Bellinger
6-Bench
7-Griffey Jr./Mays
8-AlomarBench: Yelich and Ichiro
SP: Kershaw, Feller, Seaver, Kluber, and Paxton
RP/CP: Corbin, Fingers, Hoffman, Yates, Hader, Jansen, and Wagner
I'm also planning to replace Yates with Romo and might also replace Hoffman with Eckersley. Unfortunately Extreme Moments cards are not an option for me because I lack the patience to even attempt them. After seeing my roster who do you guys think would be the best addition to my team out of Foxx, Sale, and Gagne?

I love all of them, but with the new game coming out soon, I don't think it makes sense to buy Sale when it could be a week before he takes the mound.
Gagne is my favorite reliever and Jimmie is my favorite hitter, so that's a tough choice between the two, I'd probably go Foxx, see if you like the sweet swing heading into 20. -

Foxx is tough because I know he's a great card but I already dominate with Pujols so it might actually be a bad idea for me to replace him. On the other hand if he hits similar to Babe and can face both righties and lefties I seriously may consider him since I could replace both Pujols and Gehrig with a single card.
Gagne is the card I'm leaning towards the most right now since my bullpen is still somewhat shaky.

You can't go wrong either way, I use Gagne heavily, especially in events.
In 182.1 innings Gagne has a 3.01 ERA, 0.90 WHIP, 34-7 with 22 saves in 25 attempts and 28 holds.Foxx has 579 at-bats, .366/.419/.653 statline, I actually like using him vs righties better, .381 average vs righties .316 vs lefties. He and Babe Ruth are the only batters I have over 1.000 OPS

I'd go Foxx because you'd get more use out of him than Gagne and he's really good

This was the post that I needed to see! Was really only thinking about RS earlier but with Events I definitely see the benefit of having Gagne in the bullpen since I can use him regularly. Lol can't wait to roll out the 3 headed monster of Jansen, Wagner, and Gagne now!

Think I'm gonna go with Gagne for now but if I decide to grind and build up some stubs again I'll definitely give Foxx a try.
