For whatever reason, they never seem to make the starting lineup but they always come through from the bench, either as a pinch hitter or runner. This can be any mode, a 99 slap hitter on RS or against cpu or a bronze or silver in BR. who has been super clutch off the bench for you?
I have a few. Honus Wagner Prime 99 on my NL Central squad is my first option off the bench for both his speed and bat. Despite being on the bench, I usually bring him in to pinch run in the middle innings and he ends up getting a few ABs. Ironically when I do start him I have less success, but pinch running, he always gets a clutch steal, run and sometimes I pinch hit him and he smashes a 2 out bomb.
Nelson Cruz AS '21 97 is a monster off the bench. I was just playing a 0-0 game and brought him on to pinch hit and he goes yard for a 2 run blast. 3rd time today he's gotten a pinch hit HR.
Who are some of yours?
My bench is Finest B. Reynolds, K. Marte, as switch hitters. Schwarb if I need to pinch run for my catcher. Babe for my lefty and Vlad Jr all star as my righty -
