    I chose him like 30 min ago because at the time his lowest Buy Now was over 400K and Pedro/Ripken were hovering around 350K.

    But I forgot that LITERALLY NO ONE WANTS BENCH!

    I've dropped my price to 354K which is by far the lowest price and it still hasn't sold!

    Numerous Pedros and Cals have sold for more during this time.

    So even if Bench looks like the best value when you get your Boss pack, don't be fooled like I was.

    I would say 80% of this forum wasn't choosing Bench anyway from past experience.
    I'm picking Pedro 100%

    I was 1/1 to Parallel 5 the 99 Bench last year and after using him that much I never want to again. Pedro for me as well.

    Pedro is a no brainer. Probably a top 3 SP.

    It could also just be that most people will have a free boss in about 3 days and would rather not drop 350K just to get him today instead of Tuesday.

    For as terribly as I did in the moments with both, Pedro will be the only viable choice for me.

    It’s really a shame because Johnny was one of the best catchers of all time. They could’ve given him a retro finest for 1970. He had .293 ba,45 home runs and 148 rbis. They would’ve given him better stats. Meanwhile we have future star cards with 115+ contact that are batting like .220 in the bigs

    Btw I don’t hate future stars. It’s just confusing

    Flip cards....buy them all. Must collect everything. Plus, I like Bench so I'll use his card. Of course I, I hate online play so his swing works fine offline.

    I cannot get every card. It drives me nuts having the ones I have now while most go unused. Something about having them erks me. I try to use as many different ones as I can but cannot get to them all. As a result if I get a batter to par 4 this year I will be surprised. Probably won't get a par 5 at all

    It’s his swing, so I don’t think it would matter what his attributes are. It is a shame they didn’t fix it. I’m not looking at the card, but didn’t they give him good attributes? Either way, that’s not why people are saying he is no good.

    Edit: oh, it’s you, I just typed all that to someone who already knows.

    No... I think most of you missed my point. Obviously, if you are keeping the card, you take Pedro.

    I meant if you were selling early in the program to make a profit, still don't take Bench.

    Why pay 350k for Bench when Cartaya and Piazza hitting stats are better and they are so much cheaper.

    But after further consideration, if you’re not going to sell, 100 percent chose Bench and the others will be easier to buy because more people will get take them
