I loved him when he first got released in the FoD program. I need to go back and P5 him. Best slap hitter inches game next to Gwynn with sneaky power.

Jimmy FoxxOh nice, Jim Edmonds, took me a while to get his swing going but I've him a lot now.

Interesting to see that others also have issues with Frank Thomas. I hit for a good average with him but get no power.

Pleasant Surprises:
Ricky Henderson 99 in the leadoff spot. More HRs than you might expect, plus good avg and SBs.
Joe Morgan 99. That (unexpected) power/speed combo again.
Lance Lynn 97. For the 1at half of game cycle, he was my ace. Still has good overall numbers.
Asa Lacy 97. Clayton Kershaw type dominance at lower levels. Once I play better managers in the 700s, he gets hit.
AJ Burnett 93. Another early cycle dominator. 465ks in 363 IP. .99 Whip.
Jake Diekman 83. He has 125 h/9 which plays anytime. 2.48 era and 0.71 whip. 104ks in 76 IP.
Grayson Rodriguez 99. Not really a surprise because I had no expectations. Dude is just good.Disappointments:
Whit Merrifield 78 Live Series. The man is a top 25 player in the MLB. He deserves at least a Gold rating on his Live Series card.
Frank Thomas 99. Can't hit with him.
Mike Trout 99. Not a bad card. I just continuously underperform with him.
Matt Kemp 99. Low Vision rating of 72 hurts and seems to impact my ability to hit as a Pure Analog player. -
