Replace Chipper?
-
I’m sure this is an unpopular opinion, but is anyone else considering this? I’ve done well with him and have at P5, but those vs. RHP attributes don’t look as good this late in the cycle. Brett, Boggs, Miggy, Vlad all look tempting. Might try platooning with Brett for a while.
-
I moved him to ss

That’s an option. I just don’t think I can stomach the defense after using diamond defenders all year there.

Yup, definitely replaceable now with options like Vlad Jr, Honus, Minnie, and others.

I’m 100 points shy of PV & will replace him on roster completely but it’s an amazing card
-
Negative... He's been my 3B since April and he'll be there till 22.
-
Chipper isn't moving.
-
I actually don’t really love Chippers open stance where he closes in on his stride. I haven’t replaced him yet but I want to.
-
In a small sample size Boggs has a higher batting average and Slugging percentage. Chipper isn't always great for me. Especially on defense. I've seen him hold a red flag and wave it at the bulls. Unfortunately it's just base hits he lets get by.

Chipper is great. Had him p5 for months now. He went to the bench a month ago and now he is off the main squad. Way too many options and his contact vs righty is subpar on hof and legend compared to other options. I am enjoying wade boggs a lot right now. I also took p5 wander out of my lineup and I love that card. He may end up a bench bat because I love his versatility so much. So many cards out there to play the same cad forever in my opinion. Now I just need to figure out why I'm crapp8ng the bed with the best card in the game Mickey Mantle.

Chipper is still a top hitter after TA4
Switch hitting is always a plus, and I don’t see anyone replacing him at 3B.
I can use other cards in events and BR

I always rake with Boggs and this is the best card he’s ever had. Same for Brett.

Brett is sneaky good as is Eddie. Offline only but Brett is clearing the fence with regularity. Dont know if itd transition, but with that swing, I bet it would. Eddie has a secondary of 1B. Dont remember him having that in the past.

I always love Brett and hate boggs. So etching about boggs is just plain great this time around. He makes amazing plays in the field that chopper would let past him.
-
Chipper is one of my bench bats because of his inconsistency. Lastnight 10th inn he hit a 2 out walk off single.
-
I've been pondering this for a little while myself and I love that card but with so many good looking cards... it's getting to be really tempting.

I have played with all those guys. Haven't played much with Boggs. Miggy hits everything. Vlad is really good too. I have hit 40 balls in the pci with Brett and he just doesn't get a hit. Miggy gets a hit on almost everything in the pci. Only a few games for Boggs but his hits haven't fallen either. I would rank them as follows:
Miggy
Vlad
Boggs
Brett - Shame because he is my favorite player of all time. Just can't get hits to fall. -

He’s been my best pinch hitter since I got him. I don’t trust his glove, Sig Justin Turner is so underrated. Been my best hitter, love that 115 clutch rating, and his glove has been great in my month+ experience with him in my lineup.
-
I use him exclusively in my NL East team for TA4 and had to get creative to fit all my mashers in. Chipper in LF, Schmidt at 3B, Trea Turner SS, Soriano at 2B and Vlad Sr. In RF.
But I like to split my teams up either by division or league. So Brett is in my AL central team and Jose Ramirez AS is AL east etc.
-
He will likely float between LF and SS for me now that I have MVP Donaldson. I’ll take the defensive penalties for that switch hitting.
I’ve been using Brett recently for the AL Central and I am loving his card though I must say.
