Willie Mays first baseman

I know not many people are gonna put him there because he’s an all world defender in the outfield but he should have a 1st base secondary when his 99 comes out right

Umm, no. Other than late in his career when he was basically done, he never played there.

In 22 years, he only played 1B 3 times in his first 18 seasons.

It all depends on what kind of card they'll give him. If he'll get an award card, I think there's no chance he'll get a 1B secondary because those cards are based on 1 year.
If he'll get a prime card, I also doubt he'll get that 1B secondary, because obviously he played CF throughout his best years.

Maybe there's a slight chance if he'll get a Signature Series card.

What a waste that would be if you could lol.

I don't think they will, but his fielding is high enough you could probably get away with it.

I will say though they gave Pujols 3B secondary and Foxx C secondary and neither made an appearance there in their respective MVP years.

It wouldn’t be a waste at all. There’s plenty of us with stacked outfields. Griffey Jr is still to come and I’m already fielding Cobb/Trout/Mantle. Mays at 1st let’s me use all of these guys.

Yes Hopefully Someone gets a 1B or other position 2ndary as Trout or Mantle could become bench players as Mays, Griffey are that good. But Mays or Griffey may be a BR Reward so that way our outfields can be set with a BIG 3

Mays’ bat last year, wasn’t nearly as good as Prestige Mantle this year.

With that being said, in the outfield, I’ve never used a card all year this year that was as smooth as him last year. His animations are great in the outfield and he just glided around.

I disagree. I'd take last year's Mays over this year's prestige Mantle.

Griffey doesn’t even make my outfield

I honestly don’t care if he has 1B or not, the outfield and 1B are pretty much super stacked this year.

I would take Griffey Jr over Cobb in a heartbeat.
