2-seem FB. My success rate with that pitch is like 10%...I've given up and don't use it anymore.

and no Giancarlo??!!

+1 for Walker. Hornsby, Lux, J Roll, Helton, Sig Aroldis Chapman, Crochet, Dibble

McGee has been my best reliever so far this year, and I have Sig Chapman, Gagne, Rollie, Rodney, Dibble, etc. I just feel really confident every time I use him. Haven't used Britton though so I can't compare apples to apples, but I'd highly recommend McGee.

Worst swing in the game tho

I think Pujols wins that award...

boy, seeing as I was the very first casualty of this game, grabbing a land mine and blowing myself to pieces, hope there will be another round later...can't do much worse...

I know it's a tiny sample size, but I've used Maddux for 2 games in RS (on All Star) and pitched 2 CG Shutouts with 30Ks and just 6 hits allowed in 18 IPs. His velo is pretty low but he just dots corners which I love. Could be just luck and me facing 2 weaker opponents in those 2 games, but for now he is staying in my rotation,

Just a hunch, and maybe others have already posted this, but if you click on the "Topps Now" link at the top of this page, the very first link at the top of the Topps page in the "Categories" section brings you to a special card collection about Jeter. Combined with the fact that he just got into the HoF with 100%-minus-one-vote recently, my money would be on Jeter being this year's Honus.

No starting pitching moments was a godsend. Prob the easiest moments rollout this far

I am definitely in the minority when it comes to pitching moments but I think they are extremely easy. They are long and annoying, but if you throw what the catcher tells you too they are not hard

I second that. I love pitching moments and find them much easier than hitting moments. Could be why my RS ERA is under 3.00 but my batting average sucks!

Hendricks is #2 released

It's gotta be Nelly Boomstick, no? 4XBH and 7RBIs deserves that!

Folks,
I know there's been a lot of discussions on this forum debating the merits of each of those 2 guys, but I already have Maddux and I'm wondering who is the pick between Stan the Man and Rollins at 300 stars. FYI my SS is either Larkin/Yount/HRD Ripken and my 1B is Crime Dog who is hitting very well for me. Any advice would be highly appreciated!

Thanks all, this input is much appreciated! I'm at 298 stars now so will pick up one of them tonight and give it a test drive.

I'd love a Jose Canseco card

The pic would have to be that ball hitting his head before hopping over the fence for a HR!

Ellsbury for me. There's a ton of good OF cards out there but he is always in my lineup. I hit better with him than with Mantle, Walker and all the other big name OFs for some reason. Just like the really quick, compact swing.

arvcpa, so sorry for your situation, best of luck to you and your family and Happy Thanksgiving.

I had a grand slam by Jimmie Foxx robbed in Showdown...which resulted in a loss on a miniboss and end of my showdown run.

People sleep on Walter Johnson. Dude has been HUGE for me this year

Agreed. Just prestiged him last night in the event, can't wait to try the new and improved Big Train later this week!

1985 Dennis "Oil Can" Boyd. Best nickname in the game!

I'll see your night sky bat skin and raise you a pizza bat skin! Seriously though, is it me or the bat skins don't move very fast in the market and you see some wild swings. Some may sell for $18-$20k one day and then if you follow them multiple day a couple will sell for $140k. Have you sold any at those high prices?
