… when I need a 15-minute break every 15 minutes from work.
With that being said, what is your full lineup of high-rated cards that you suck with and would never use if you needed a win?
I hear Mike Schmidt and Christy Mathewson have a lot of potential in this topic.
-
So a just for fun lineup?
These are cards that I would not use in a everyday lineup but can be really fun.

Pedro Martinez (All Star)I was probably vague - I meant cards that you would hate to use. But your fun lineup was interesting too! Matt Harvey would never make my fun lineup

Whitey FordLove it. Cliff Floyd would have a lot of responsibility out there. You dislike them so much that you would leave them out to dry without a RF. I like your thinking!

Oops forgot RF but yes that works lol

Cards I suck with EVERY year...
P Greinke, Hoffman, Romo, NeshakPosition Players: Brantley, Jackie Robinson, Al Kaline, Ripken, Stanton and Schmidt because of their absurd stances, Jose Ramirez, Victor Martinez.

Pedro Martinez (All Star)I'm hitting over .400 with that Brian Roberts with about 15-20 homeruns if I remember correctly. I toyed around with the idea of moving Jackie Robinson to left to keep him in the lineup, but with my current outfield of Trout, Dominguez, and Acuna, there just isn't room. He's a [censored] good card though. I'm surprised I haven't seen him more often outside of the switch hitter event.
Out of this list, I only currently have Pedro in use. I have plenty of starters that are better on paper, but he has an ERA around 0.50 at the moment in 4-5 starts. I'm going to ride him out until he has at least one clunker.

I really enjoy using him for the TA builds that I've done , unlike last year I can actually hit with him and if not for the fact that I actually really like Soriano he may have been my second basemen.

Glad I'm not the only one that thinks the Sam Huff card is complete doodoo. I gave up on his 3HR TA mission.

It only took me a few games to move on from him, I think I went back to Posada as my catcher at the time because I really like his swing and I love switch hitters.
-
I have never been able to hit with any version of Ripken, Piazza, or Pudge.

Im terrible with any version of Pedro Martinez in DD
-
David Ortiz lol
-
I started DD last year, and can not hit with any version of Mantle. My camera is SZ2, and it's to the point where I just stare at his head and yell "HIT SOMETHING". It doesn't seem to motivate him.

Gary Carter
Reggie Jackson
Stan Musial
Cal Ripken
Cy Young
Dwight Evans (that hurt)
Mickey Mantle -
