Chipper, Wood, and Oswalt were easily the 3 most useful. Maybe Felix as well. Steve Finley was the last player I took out when I got every position 90+

Felix is still in the rotation on my all Mariners theme team.

My choice was Longoria, and I think he played at third until I got that Edgar Martinez from the event.

Torii Hunter was my go-to CF until McCutchen.

87 Chipper Jones .353/.388/.488 in 807 at-bats.
87 Cal Ripken .323/.358/.445 in 449 at-bats.
87 Jason Kendall .298/.336/.336 in 265 at-bats.
89 Roy Oswalt 89.1 innings 3.53 ERA 1.05 WHIP

Rickey was in my lineup for the first 2-3 months

I am hoping we get an event limited to just these 30 cards. RP would be a bit thin though.

Chipper was rock solid for a good long time, his swing is smooth and easy.
That Rickey Henderson gets honorable mention. That speed, steal and base aggr, was OP for a good long while

[hegone44_PSN]

In retrospect we probably all should've taken Chipper Jones, but that 87 Kendall was good too. I took Henderson because it's Rickey f'ing Henderson, and he turned out only ok in my opinion.

[RyanOdinson_PSN]

I'm still killing it with Rookie Oswalt and old man Gwynn in the event.

I have to disagree. I took Henderson then took Chipper later on and I still preferred Rickey and glad I took him first. I enjoyed Chipper and he did his job when I used him but in retrospect I don't regret taking Rickey. I think it also comes down to who works best for your style of play. I like speedier guys with good defense. It's why Jose Reyes is my starting shortstop.
