I put machado, Bauer, and Soto up for sale. I’ll reverse grind them... buy them back next week for likely half what they went for today

Not really. Unless you can’t hit same handed pitching
This is SO true. I cannot hit lefty vs righty or righty vs lefty to save my life this year. Especially if they have a good slider. So much easier hitting same side pitcher and just setting PCI inside.

I already got Mookie & Soto, but I’ve been debating on picking up Machado. I know everything is based on your team needs, but who do you consider the Top 5 TA 4 players?
For me it has to be Soto, Machado, Degrom, Devin Williams and number five is a toss up. I did get everyone I mentioned plus Salvy, Liam, and both Anderson’s so far

That’s awesome. So in real life, you’d be like a reverse switch-hitter - southpaw comes to the mound, you hit from left side; righty arm comes to the mound, you go to right side!

The prices are tempting but for a lot of us, what is there left to get really? These TA4 cards are legit not only because the attributes are nice but they have active perks like "Dead Red" and "Unfazed." I'm probably just going to get all of them since I've enjoyed the whole collecting side of The Show 20 so much this year.
I've only tried J.T. Realmuto and Eloy Jimenez but I have Mookie Betts, Devin Williams, Trevor Bauer, Gerrit Cole, Ronald Acuna, Dimelson Lamet, Nick Anderson, Liam Hendriks, Manny Machado, Jacob deGrom, Pat Neshek, and Juan Soto.

Lol IRL you dont have the same batting view no matter what side of the plate you are hitting from, and moving a little PCI around.

I'm annoyed that his vision and contact are both comparable to SS Chipper. Chipper averaged a walk every 6 ab's, Machado this season is like 1/10. Also he has better fielding than Arenado who's won the gold glove every season he's been in the majors.
They juice Mookie and Machado to make the hometown fans happy but bone both Acuña and Freeman. I can't believe I'm complaining about west coast bias but like Jacob Stallings has higher contact than Freeman. Also idk how you justify not giving Freeman 125 power vs right even with Prestige.
This doesn't even bring up the highest overall Ozuna is 94 and he came very close to the triple crown.

He mashes. Think he’s the best at third
Yeah all of a sudden, I regret dropping 1M on Chipper
Sell now, make someone happy, only lose 100K!
I might but I’m holding for now in case I change my kind. Don’t want to wait another month or two to get him back

Fair point.

First AB a double in h2h and a defensive animation I never seen that would make the top 10 list. He is endgame
-
Was getting some conquest done online and Machado was doing some amazing animations. Haven’t had/seen those since Schmidt. Nothing was getting down the line.
-
Was not a fan of his swing. Played about 5 ranked games on hall of fame, maybe around 20 AB’s and observed enough to know I didn’t like him. Not the answer for me so I put in my million dollar order in for chipper. Will probably get a notification this time next year it went thru
