Best outfield?
-
Who is the end game outfield now? I have trout and mantle and don’t know who should go in right. Griffey, Cobb, Walker,randy? I had good success with Harper but he just does not have the defense. What do you guys think?
-
It's whoever you do the best with out of Trout/Mantle/Griffey/Randy/Walker imo, Cobb is good, but there is a bit of distance between him and those

Yeah at this point with so many good useable outfielders it’s all based on how well you do with them.

Cobb has been my favorite player to use to this point. He lacks the supreme power, but he does absolutely everything else. Threat to steal as soon as hes on. Terrific fielder, runs down almost any ball. Great going the other way. One of the best bunters in the game. Awesome gap hitter that can turn those into triples.
I am puzzled as to how I'm going to fit Junior in when I get him.
-
I have Yelich in LF, Trout in CF, Mantle in RF. I’ll probably put Griffey in RF and move Mantle to LF when I get him.

Honestly, his D lacks compared to everyone mentioned, but if you're running full Diamond d everywhere else you can afford silver fielding in left for that bat.

To further complicate matters, there’s a logjam in the middle infield too (I think this is all awesome btw)... Tatis/Seager/Honus/Mondesi/Hornsby/Cano/Jackie/Biggio
Anyone trying to figure this out as well?
-
I dont have Trout or Mantle, so it's easy for me. Cobb, Griffey, and Walker. Want to give Ted another try at some point too.
-
Yea that’s my dilemma. I have Ted, Trout and Mantle. Along with Yelich and Edmunds. I’m about to stick Griffey at third and say F the defense lol

I'm in this boat as well. Teddy Ballgame in LF, Trout in CF, Mantle in RF.
Griffey Jr. doesn't get the nod over any of those guys.
-
Griffey can't measure up to my Jim Edmonds.

I did it like this:
1B: Babe
2B: Seager
SS: Tatis Jr
3B: 2020 Post Correa -
The FS Luis Robert has been one of my favorite outfielders all year. I typically cycle between mantle, trout, Cobb, Robert, Edmonds and I’ve used yelich a few times recently too. I will have to find some way to squeeze Griffey in there, and then eventually Mays is going to add to the problem.
It’s kinda funny that most players are using 2 if not 3 CF in the outfield. If not for Walker and to a lesser extent babe and Ted, I think all anyone would ever use would be CFs.
