4 CF, yet another OF topic
-
With the addition of Griffey, there’s obviously been a lot of discussion about who you’re going to use, who goes to the bench, who gets the boot, etc.
Without being bias or going by individual success with a certain card, I’d say MOST would agree that the top 5 COMPLETE outfielders right now in the game are in no particular order:
Mantle
Trout
Griffey
Walker
CobbI have personally had more success with Cobb over Walker, so my current OF is LF Trout, CF Cobb, RF Mantle. I’m about to pickup Griffey and he’s going to send Cobb to the bench.
My question is this: What position do you play each of these guys and why? If you’re choosing your 3 from the 4 CF, obviously 2 have to play out of position. Do you tend to get worse animations with certain players in some spots. Cobb has the worst arm, so LF or CF makes most sense. Also, do you feel whether or not they are Prestiged or not changes this decision making?
Any input? Matters, doesn’t matter? Over thinking this?

It's a good problem to have.
I sold Walker simply because he netted me more stubs.TA4 is coming and we might get some more top flight outfielders.
Also that new 2020 Postseason Arozerena might be a contender for the top tier as well.
I play Trout in CF and Mantle in LF. Mickey gets some weird, time consuming animations in CF for some reason. I don't notice it in LF.
-
BTW, no Mookie in the Corey Seager/ World Series program has me thinking he is the cover athlete for the Show 21, meaning he will get a Finest/Special card for pre-orders like Baez did last year.
That card will be a Cobb type card. Not as much speed but better defense/arm.

I was going to say that about Mantle and same for Trout at LF.

I have Cobb LF, Trout CF, Mantle RF. Cobb has the weakest arm (LF), Mantle the strongest (RF).

I might go with your setup. I had Mantle in LF because Walker's primary was RF.
I got rid of Walker so Mantle in RF makes the most sense -
Mantle
Griffey Jr.
Trout (though I hit .236 with him but it’s always a HR) -
There are so many good cards that you can rotate them all and not miss a beat.
We still don't have
Mays
Mookieto further "complicate" things

Yep, and about 50000 others. Bummer of this game this time of year is we see the same teams in RS over and over for most part.

I agree with @Itsacanesthing that Arozarena is probably in this tier as well.
-
Mantle retains his diamond badge in center. Griffey does in RF. Trout’s prestige does in LF and has the weakest arm.
-
Griffey just has a swing that is glitchy. But if he doesn’t have the fielding issues from last year he will be my starting RF.
-
Honestly if you look at the outfield options this year, there are far more options then any other position. It is by far the more superior list of players then the infield.

Same, Mickey’s arm is a waste in LF and he gets good animations on the corners, Trout not so much.

That’s interesting, I moved mantle to RF and trout to cf because same thing was happening to me with trout in LF
-
I keep Vlad in RF solely for the arm, Mantle in CF; Cobb in LF, his speed to catch fly balls compensates for the arm.
