LF Options
-
Looking for somebody new for LF. Options are Ellsbury, McCutchen, Charlie Blackmon, or Kris Bryant. Who should I roll with?
-
Blackmon
-
Of those I agree Blackmon but have you tried Minnie? He is playing great for me
-
Try out Carlson! Not a bad bat and diamond defense
-
Of those? Whoever still has gold fielding in LF as their secondary.
(I value gold or diamond defense in the OF.)
-
Lou Brock
-
Bryant is a beast for me. But the price tag
-
Hide Ruth in left field and use one of the many first base options at first
-
New Yordan is free and rakes
-

Is there a benefit for having diamond defense players compared to gold other than the 4 defensive ratings (fielding, reaction, arm, accuracy)? In other words, if a gold defensive player has a 85 reaction and 85 speed. Will he get to the ball slower than a diamond with these 2 attributes at the same rating?
-
Ellsbury seems to get me every single time I play against him, I just lost a game where he pretty much single hanedly beat me. 2 hr's and stole a 2 or 3 run homer to end an inning. Him and Tony Gwyn give me a good pounding every time I play against them it seems.
-
This Yordon card crushes. He's slow, so slow. Hes slower than that 37 speed attribute would indicate. But hes free and he hits bombs. 100% worth the occasional gapper he won't get to.
-
Well if you can spend 30-40k, you can get Erik Davis.
He's got 96 speed, 90 plus power and contact for both sides, and has very good defense.
-
I’m using Kenny Lofton, he still gets diamond defense in LF, he covers a lot of ground because of his speed and is a decent bat
-
Lou Brock is a great lead-off hitter for me. And because of his speed he runs down a lot of fly balls despite his silver fielding
-
you must use FS carlson... switch hitter and diamond fielding. hasnt left my lineup since he came out.
-
You didnt mention him but Larry Walker is probably my favorite lefty hitter on the game. Decent speed, and not too much of a liability in LF
-
I use Mickey in left.
I have got the Big Fish in center. He seems to do less of the no urgency animations that would drive me nuts with Mickey. -

Over 90 fielding gets better animations. The higher reaction the better jump you get on the ball.
