Is Vlad Jr the worst FoTF card?

Mancini, Boyd, Votto, Cain and Nola are also useless
Mancini is underrated. Sure, he's not as great as some of the other guys in the program but he's definitely not in the bottom. Hit quite a few tanks with him in BR and he can play 1B so no need to worry about his defense.

After taking a second look at his ratings, you're right. He could be useful. Easy to assume he's a dumpster fire when he has that logo on his hat is all

I would be really disappointed if I was Giants fan. An 87 Posey when there’s a free 99 version available? Could’ve been a juiced Brandon Crawford, Hunter Pence, even a Brandon Belt.
I did use his card in a showdown run and it was pretty solid at the plate at least, but they could’ve used that to spot to give them a useable version that doesn’t have a 99 available already.

Yadi, Votto, Cain, Nola, Comforto, Guerrero and Boyd are met to me. The real question is who those teams future FOTF cards are.

Are they doing more FotF cards or are they going to put in allstar, breakout etc. There will be a Honus type card where we have to collect alot of cards and team affinity is a good spot to put them. Keeps people doing showdowns and M2O.

I'm seeing some Nola hate in this thread and while he's by no means great, he's somewhat usable on HOF difficulty simply because he has a sinker. But yeah on AS he's batting practice
-
The funny thing about that Vlad moment is the description of the moment. Talking about his 29 HR in one round of the HR Derby and 91 Total HR's. Card has no pop at all like OP said. Of course going up against Snell doesn't make things any easier.
-
Posey has to be the most useless one there is, simply because of the 99.
-
Boyd is better than LS Kershaw. Don't sleep on him. FB 93-95, curve to 73.
-
People say they did Vlad wrong, but the kid only had 15 HR in the whole season. He went off in the Derby, but come on that’s the Derby. They can try to bring that 95 card back.

Man, I’d love to know how this moment is completed. I’m tired of hitting 107mph singles on balls up in the zone. Haven’t hit a homer besides tucking it barely inside the foul pole

I feel like they did Vlad Jr dirty with his card, and that's coming from a Yankees fan. I thought it would have been a little better.
Hype and stats are different things. Based on his stats, they gave him some pretty big boosts across the board. He wasn't a good player last year...
-
His future stars card was just incredible last year. But what happened this year? Juice that thang!

Yadi is the worst by far.
As a Cards fan I have to agree, I should've waited on him. He is a great real world catcher, but his skill set doesn't transfer well to gaming. They could've at least gave him his elite D. He is super slow with below avg power with average to slightly above avg D

Brandon Belt could have been a perfect candidate. 80/90 vs RHP with mediocre speed and fielding. Much more serviceable than Poosey
