IDK guys, Griffey Jr. has replaced Trout as my starting CF and it hasn't even been close. He's amazing.
EDIT - I do love that Machado card. He's mashing already for me, but Griffey "feels" better to me. Just preference, but I think with his swing and defense he's the best in the game. haven't tried Mays though.
But is Griffey better than Mantle? I have Trout, Mantle and in a couple days Griffey. Griffey in CF and Mantle in RF? Trying to decide how Soto fits in there also. I need to finish Conquest and Machado is mine. Added DeGrom and he is a beast!
I’d be hard pressed to say that. His bat is faster and his arm is nasty, but Mantle is better all around. I play him in RF and Soto hitting 4th in LF, with Trout as a platoon and defensive substitute.

Thats good to hear. As a Padre fan I think I'm just gonna buy the card for what its going for. I got some stubs saved up and don't want to grind through the TA to get him. I dont know if his price will go up or down over the next few days so I'm thinking of just buying him now.
Do the exchanges. If u try to buy high silvers it won't cost u to much. Maybe 50k. But you'll get a bunch of packs and a shot to pull something decent.

Aldaberto Mondesei would like a word
No
Yes.
Mondesei is great on All Star but once you get higher in RS to the HOF difficulty he’s an automatic strikeout unless you’re bunting with him. His vision is just awful. I don’t fear him at all when he comes up. But as always if YOU hit great with him then that’s all that matters.
really? He's pretty much been my MVP at 2b. I played a few RS games on HOF last season and he seemed ok. He absolutely crushes on AS where I'm at right now, high 6's low 7's.
I do usually bunt situationally with him against righties but he has good pop from that side as well. I've had no problem hitting with him and have an unusually high amount of perfect perfects from either side of the plate.
Just my experience...On AS Mondesei is amazing but on HOF - I strike him out 9 out of 10 times if he isn’t bunting. That low vision really starts to impact him on HOF in my experience. But if you can consistently get hits on HOF with 58 vision then you are way better than most players & keep it up then.
I was under the impression vision only affected the outer PCI which had to do with more foul balls...

Manny is growing on me, I bought him back. Griffey and Trout are in my OF till the end of this game. LF is still rotating for me

I believe vision determines the inner pci size when you swing normal. The contact rating determines the outer pci size when you contact swing.

I think it’s the other way around. Vision is the outer pci. I use only the outer and have the inner and center off and the size is definitely bigger based on vision rating.

So then exactly what does the vision do and why would it hurt you on HOF? I only use the inner PCI and never noticed any difference really. I forget what his plate discipline is but I do find I am probably more likely to strike out than to it a dribbler or foul it off, but it hasn't been much of an issue.

I like that Manny card but he threw his first infield assist away for me, so, yeah... hooray unforced errors!

Automatic strikeout? That’s interesting. I almost never strikeout with him on HOF nor do I see others strikeout with him much
