I've played this game for several years on diamond dynasty so I save and invest a lot of stubs. Those copious amounts of diamond upgrades help me make more stubs than before. I just got him today. Too late to regret right?
What is the honest review on him? It feels like every Youtuber is click baiting with "this is the BEST CARD in the game"...His small strike zone makes it actually harder for me to track pitches since the release is below is eye level, like Albies.

My honest review is that he is the best card from an attribute perspective, but his swing and size are problematic to me. Meaning he's a bit on the shorter side which will make you chase high fastballs and his swing doesn't seem to generate a whole lot of exit velocity. He hits a lot of weak flyballs and lineouts for me. I will keep him in my line up, but that's my honest review. Acuña on the other hand smokes every ball in the strike zone for insane exit velocities, to make a comparison.

About to have my first game with Mookie in ranked later tonight on HOF, curious to see how he does if/when I square one up with him. Sticking him in RF for now, can’t take Jackie out from 2B
Spot on about Acuna, the man is insane. Hitting above .400 with him, I believe I have 45 hits total and 23 are homers, mostly in ranked

Lol, don't base any of your decisions on YouTubers. Bad way to go. They elect a card as great before even using them. They will say a card is insane then go 1 for 5 or something with it. Then at some point they will do a team build using "cards they hate, or cards that have bad swings", and go insane with Jeff bagwell or something. Bottom line is if they are a good hitter they can learn to hit with anyone. And if you aren't you can stuggle with anyone. At the end of the day you use the cards you want to for a variety of reasons. Hopefully none are YouTube influence.

Honestly I don't get influence by a lot of the garbage that is why I want to see and know real performance on here. They are click bait for 100K views and plus they are cyborgs. Any card can be "insane" right? I appreciate the thoughtful response to the post. All the others ones far have been super thoughtful as well. I can't just spam and bump posts =). To get Mookie was just downright incredibly expensive...

Yeah I don't do well with the short guys.. Judge either for that matter.

I will never have Judge in my lineup because he is like Paul Bunyan. I can't put anyone above 6'4" because of this. Edward C. would just [censored] on that strike zone all day. Outlier sinker away while protecting up in in sinkers is just insane.
