First evolution card pick?

Was wondering who you guys took for the first evo card and why? I did the base game pre order so I’m grinding to get my stuff and my team is cheeks. Have a bronze 2B and 3B and I’m doing the 1st inning conquest map right now.

First thought was eckersley then I thought to grab eddie. Just wondering what you all did here

I took Pudge for his good offense, great defense and excellent speed (for a catcher, at least).

I took Eck because I needed a good bullpen arm.

I did Eckersly. I play offline and a lot of conquest so one really good reliever is really all you need. I also value a high BB/9 stat as I believe that helps you in making pitches go where you want them to go.

I play a lot of conquest to get my stubs decent to start flipping on the market. I got gold Severino and gold Nick Anderson out of packs already.
I have silver biggio at C now for his speed, could really use eddie at 3rd I’m using 69 bronze nick solak there right now

I am actually a big proponent of going for players you feel your team needs or that you would enjoy playing with

I went Cargo. My current outfield is LS Alvarez, Mantle and 2018 Judge. I got LS Bregman at 3B (from pack) and I use my CAP at C. Bullpen has a few decent arms already. So I figured Cargo was most practical and useful.

Eddie because Pudge sucked last year, I suck With Eck and Cargo didn’t interest me. Eddie is smacking the ball for be in the event

I went for Pudge for some reason. Got him and only used him a couple of games. I also accidentally locked in Gold Gary Sanchez and he's doing pretty good for me anyway. I kind of regret choosing Pudge. I don't even use him. I wish I did Eckersley because my bullpen is trash. Bad choice on my part

Getting a diamond with bad fielding is pointless in Eddie Matthews. CArgo was by far the easiest pick

Eddie for the left handed bat at third.

I took Eck, but if I could do it over I’d probably take either Cargo or Eddie. I’m really missing some good lefty bats for my lineup.

I went Eck, but I have Judge, classic Robles, diamond Hunter from Twins collection, and the new AS Granderson. Add in a bunch of gold options for OF and I just felt my OF was to stacked to take CarGo. As others have said, Matthew's defense is a disappointment and I have the Longoria from the Rays collection. Pudge was my other option since I'm running a catcher I can't even remember, but so far I'm happy I did Eck still.

you are me

Needed an upgrade at 3rd, so took Mathews. Plus Pudge and Cargo really don’t look all that great. I’ll take Eckersley next.

It was down to Eck or Pudge. I took Pudge. I wanted a good defensive catcher..."Be strong up the middle!" They always say.

I took Pudge because the best catcher as of now, MVP Posey, will take forever for me to unlock.

Took Eddie. Played 2 games so far. In his first game after upgrading he went 4-4 with 3 dingers and a double. (plus a walk) Game 2 he went 2-3 with another dinger that made my opponent quit.

..... I need to move up in RS

Eck. I'll probably take Pudge next.

I took Pudge, because I didnt play 19 and wanted to use him, however I forgot all about that POTM Sanchez card, so I really dont need him.
