    If you don’t have Verlander you’re missing out.

    DeGrom, Otahni, Verlander, Ryan and Maddux. I should add a lefty but not in any rush to complete Kershaw. Also love Walter, he is my 6th.

    All the new TA4 pitchers suck. None of them have above 100 H/9 so their PCI is large. TA 3 Pitchers have better stats go figure...

    Bob Gibson does.

    Pedro
    Kershaw
    Glavine
    Pearson
    Grienke

    I like control guys with a 96-99 fastball to throw off the junk and spot low and away fastball

    I refuse to use Degrom just as I refused to use Edward Cabrera. The meta is boring

    Since I only play offline my rotation is going to be

    Wainwright
    Wainwright
    Wainwright
    Wainwright
    Wainwright

    At this point I don't plan on pitching with any other starter unless it is for a mission or moment.

    You really think so? I've been waiting for his price to come down a little. Every card is sky high right now. He's the only good arm I need.

    Currently:
    deGrom
    Verlander
    Seaver
    Ray
    Scherzer

    deGrom is obviously tough to take out.
    IMO Verlander is the best card in the game.
    Seaver has been great. Short sample size
    POTM Ray is almost unhittable. I have given up 1 run in 5 games
    Scherzer is solid. By no means a long term guy. He can be really effective, but can get tuned up.

    I just bought Arrieta. Only used home offline so far. We will see once I get time to play online.

    These WS Rewards are the ONLY cards that havent been brought back in REWIND packs so far. Maybe they do a World Series Rewind pack later this year, that would be the only thing that would keep that from happening. Either way, he's going to stay very pricy, because he's the best pitcher in the game

    I know. He so hard to hit. I have over a million stubs but I always save like I need them later or something, I should just break down and buy him now.

    I was in the same boat. I just broke down and paid for him and Goose. At this point of the year, what else are you gonna spend Stubs on anyways. Only other card I really want at this point is 99 Bill Wagner and 99 Chris Sale (Nasty) and 99 Trout. Dont even care about Hank, Willie, or Babe.......Maybe Griffey, that would be about it. I'll have plenty of stubs to buy them when they come out if needed....also if Finest are TA5 again, might as well spend some stubs and have fun...you'll get more

    That's weird you said Chris Sale because I was thinking about how him and Andrew Miller both have that sidearm delivery that's hard to read. A 99 Chris would be super elite. Obviously Trout would be the best card in the game .

    I want to buy Verlander since he is the toughest to face IMO but it’s kind of a waste since I only have five spots.

    Shohei is out unfortunately….but good riddance. His breaking pitches are too slow.

    It's a good thing you don't have to field only one team. I'll never quite understand the appeal of one god squad to rule them all. There are so many great options, only pitching the same 5 guys would be like only eating Vanilla and Chocolate. Give strawberry cheesecake and cookie dough a try.

    You make an excellent point, we are given 4 or 5 slots to team build with and never really thought about building 2 god squads but it makes a lot of sense then you can use both teams to compete with and not have to worry about the numbers game. Good post!!!

    They would be hard pressed to make a card better than Mookie. Trout is good but is clearly an inferior defender to Mookie. Also, Mookie’s versatily makes him almost impossible to sit him. Heck his out of position fielding attributes are almost gold level.

    I'm desperate for a 99 Sale.

    In like 20 BR innings I have a 0.50 ERA with SILVER Sale. LMAO.

    And Im not great. My BR team ERA is like 4.50.

    I can't imagine the damage I could do with a 99 Sale.
