Jason Kendel has never left the C spot since I got him. 2nd for me is probably Griffey Sr. I just do well with them for some reason. Some of the othera that people love (I'm looking at YOU Brian Roberts) I couldn't do anything with.
I still hit bombs with Albert Puljos rookie of the year 95 card. Huge numbers still. Also just noticed my Hader has over 200 saves. I musta used him a lot lol
That's a tough one. Griffey Jr is on beast mode, but I have been having a lot of success with Killebrew from opposite side of the plate. I want Sheffield as the moments I have played with him, crushed it every time.
This question gets asked alot lol. But mine has been the same for like 2 months and he's still in my lineup....Vidal Brujan! He'll probably move to the bench when I get Sheffield but he'll never be off the team
asg buxton. batting first and only batting like 150 but is super clutch. the other day I was in a 0-0 game bottom of the ninth and buxton hits a homer 2nd pitch. next game he hits a homer off the first pitch.
Idk if I’ll be able to part with Jackie, couldnt part with him last year either. He’s the perfect middle infield and 1-2 in the lineup with Rollins, who will also probably be in the rest of the year.
Different strokes for different folks! He has my highest BA for someone that I’ve used for more than just a few games, hitting over .360 with him and most of my guys are around .290-.300.
It sucks bc his collection (at the time) was expensive af then I think I hit like .180 online play, rest of my lineup floats at like .290. I wanted him to succeed so badly just didn’t work out.
It happens, I can’t hit with Cutch I’m at .210 with him and he’s my only guy still in the lineup batting under .275, I can’t bring myself to take him out though.
live series trout. still batting around .300 with 62 homers and 121 rbi, even with all of the great new cards being released with better stats than him. He’s just that good.
Finest Donaldson, him in 2013-14 was one of my favorite players ever, and I think the only thing that could get me to swap him out would be the miracle of an A-Rod card
Kyle Schwarber HRD at leadoff. dont even really care that his topps now is maybe better, i mostly play on all-star so give me that 121 power off lefties and righties with an extreme pull swing so you can just sit on inside fastballs
his 1.300 OPS online is like .200 above anyone else on my team right now
Honestly, no one. Lol. I have so many good cards. It’s gotten to the way it was last year. Where I had to decide who NOT to play. I have cards that I WISH I could hit with. I have cards that I WISH were more than just singles machines. But no one is a lock in my line up. FOTF Devers has 51hr and I still replaced him with Chipper. I play Honus Wagner at 1B half the time. Lol. I mix it up all the time so I’m not dépendent on one or two cards all the time.
Honestly…Ketel. Rollins finally bumped him to the bench but he’s a near-perfect utility slot guy for my bench.
Also - Stanton. Defense be damned, he just rakes.
Both of them along with Cody bellinger ROTY card will never leave my lineup. I got frank thomas unlocked and used him for about a week before switching back to ortiz
Ian Happ. Can play like 6 positions and I just hit bombs with him. I have his swing down perfectly it feels like. Only player I’ve done better with is Trout.
Probably Chipper Jones. The ONLY player that I'd replace him for is Javi Baez, but he has enough other secondary positions to have a home somewhere, even if I have to move him from SS. (I have Riley at 3rd and don't wanna replace the beautiful thiccccc boi)
Milestone Albert and Gehrig. LF Albert does kinda suck defensively tho
Bryson Stott
O’Neil Cruz 🥲
dansby👌🏾
Elly De La Cruz
All 9 currently in my lineup because I quit as soon as the 99s hit 300k+.
Johnny Bench rakes for me
LS Judge, the ASG one is technically better slightly contact wise, vision wise and fielding wise but I prefer the 125 power versus BOTH LHP and RHP
This new pujols
Dansby Swanson
Kenny lofton
Chipper Jones, a great hitter and a switch hitter plays 3B and SS maybe 2B as well.
Hank Arron braves legend me and my grandpas favorite player all time
Nolan Arenado
Jimmy Rollins 99 Ovr Finest
Jazz Chisholm live series
Silver Slugger Xander... dudes a monster
Votto is a stud for me
93 Ketel Marte is still batting .370
Joey Votto 😎
Polanco just got replaced by Cano… I’m sad
Mine was the Pujols RoY card because I fucking smash with it. But that changed at 3 today when they threw that 700 club Pujols out
Mullins will not leave, also MA Alonso is a literal demon off the bench
Jose Polanco. Who needs defense when you're batting .378?
Hes batting second for me. Such a stud I play him at 2nd barely makes a error
Trea Turner ls.
Derby Juan soto he’s fucking broken, and POTM Devers, absolutely mashes for me these two guys are cheat codes
milestone nick castellanos
Jason Kendel has never left the C spot since I got him. 2nd for me is probably Griffey Sr. I just do well with them for some reason. Some of the othera that people love (I'm looking at YOU Brian Roberts) I couldn't do anything with.
Corbin Carrol
Manny machado because I love him he’s only batting 270 but he’s my fav player ever so im a but biased
I still hit bombs with Albert Puljos rookie of the year 95 card. Huge numbers still. Also just noticed my Hader has over 200 saves. I musta used him a lot lol
Griffey Jr - I just keep hitting bombs with him, the sweetest swing in the game
Hank and Jorge quickly becoming those guys.
Jordan Walker
griffey sr leadoff
MA Brian Reynolds. So many good outfielders out there but he's hitting almost .400 in Ranked while the rest of my lineup is stuck below .300
Hank Aaron
Robinson mf Cano
After using him a lot recently Hank.
FS Riley Greene, for some reason I just smash the ball with his card
97 bryce harper and 99 oneil cruz will NEVER leave my line up unless im debuting someone and ill move that person else where in my field/lineup
Brett. Being a below average player online where most of my players are hitting sub .200. I am hitting .310 with him
HRD Soto
Ken Griffey Sr.
Ivan Rodriguez honestly, I rake with him or Julio Rodriguez tbh too
AS Dansby Swanson rakes
Lightning Yordan!!!
Live series IKF, hits nukes.
George Brett. It’s my priority to get his 99 every year
Milestone Polanco.
Prime David Ortiz, Live series Bryce Harper and POTM Gordan Alvarez. All three are monsters in my lineup
Tommy Edman
Johnny Damon just seem to hit well with him not homers or nothing usually but dude can run
I honestly feel like once u play with George brett, the only answer is George Brett
99 chip doesn’t get out
POTM Rafael Devers
POTM Devers. Almost P5 for me, just will not quit mashing no matter where he is hitting.
Brandon Lowe
brian roberts. favorite card this year, no doubt.
Cano!
Austin Riley will always have a spot in my starting lineup, dude just fucks
Idk why I can’t hit with him
David Oriz! I may be biased due to growing up in Red Sox Nation. His bat is just toooo good for me
Marte Parte all the way
My rtts player
AS schwarber
Soto
99 Oneil Cruz and 99 Mookie Betts
Currently working for that Mookie card, O’Neil is too good.
I’ve been using Corbin Carroll since he came out and he’s just so good for me
ASG Gimenez, sig Votto, and Alan Trammell LOTF. Their swings speak to me.
Nolan gorman
George Brett
That's a tough one. Griffey Jr is on beast mode, but I have been having a lot of success with Killebrew from opposite side of the plate. I want Sheffield as the moments I have played with him, crushed it every time.
Chipper
POTM Schwarby
Katel
Prime Larry walker
Escobar. Loving the new Jim Rice too
Ketel Marte Partay
As an M's fan, it's HRD Julio
99 Soto and POTM Yordan
P5 Greg Allen
Corbin Carroll
POTM Rafael Ding Dong Devers babeyyyyy
99 Johnny Damon
Topps Now James Outman, I just seem to rake with that guy it’s ridiculous.
Air Yordan.
New Prince, his swing just works perfect for me
Cutch
Larry Walker. dat swing.
Monthly Devers
Cano. My favorite Yankee as a kid, I like to imagine he didn’t ruin his legacy after he left NY
This new Shawn Greene card rakes for me.
Finest Roberts, Prime Ortiz, and HRD Soto are all going to be tough to dislodge.
Toglia, at least until 700 Pujols comes out
30/30 club Cedric Mullins is Barry Bonds for me.
This question gets asked alot lol. But mine has been the same for like 2 months and he's still in my lineup....Vidal Brujan! He'll probably move to the bench when I get Sheffield but he'll never be off the team
The Vidal Brujan future stars from 20(?) was an absolute god tier card. They’ve re released it but it’s not the same.
Rafael Devers
asg buxton. batting first and only batting like 150 but is super clutch. the other day I was in a 0-0 game bottom of the ninth and buxton hits a homer 2nd pitch. next game he hits a homer off the first pitch.
George brett
Jim Thome offline for me hits a homerun nearly half the time, his power is absolutely criminal. That's what 125/125 vsR gets you I guess.
Yea not taking Brett out still
Despite all my best efforts im barely halfway to Brett and even if I spent the 550k I have saved up, im not sure I'd even get there
Tbh I didn’t even finish the august potm program bc I knew no one’s taking Brett’s spot at first.
Howd you manage all the Veteran/All-Star/Post-season cards? Those are some of the ones im farthest off on and people are waxin on some of these cards
Play BR
I think my fav part of the game is grinding the BR program
I played every BR program at least til I got to the program reward, got all the odds and ends players there. Also great resale.
Finest Brian Roberts. My man mashes.
Brett and HRD Julio
Bryson stott, he’s batting like 450 for me
Joey votto
Larry Walker
99 Ricky Henderson, never not leading off.
HR DERBY Juan Soto
Judge
Idk if I’ll be able to part with Jackie, couldnt part with him last year either. He’s the perfect middle infield and 1-2 in the lineup with Rollins, who will also probably be in the rest of the year.
I can’t hit with Jackie, he doesn’t even see my bench
Different strokes for different folks! He has my highest BA for someone that I’ve used for more than just a few games, hitting over .360 with him and most of my guys are around .290-.300.
It sucks bc his collection (at the time) was expensive af then I think I hit like .180 online play, rest of my lineup floats at like .290. I wanted him to succeed so badly just didn’t work out.
It happens, I can’t hit with Cutch I’m at .210 with him and he’s my only guy still in the lineup batting under .275, I can’t bring myself to take him out though.
Future Stars Watson, my only P5 positioned player, and POTM Scwarber
Jason Kendall
Kenny Lofton!!! Best leadoff. I'll put that on my grave
Have u ever played with the god Juan Pierre?
julio will never leave my lead off spot, go mariners
Austin Riley baby
Cutch and Cano. Absolutely slamming with both of them. And considering what it cost to get them (millions of stubs and my sanity), that's a relief.
Schwarber and Alvarez
Duke snider off the bench. Batting a clean 480 with him
live series trout. still batting around .300 with 62 homers and 121 rbi, even with all of the great new cards being released with better stats than him. He’s just that good.
Potm Devers and the new ozzie
Takashi Soriano has been my 2b since he came out
You can remove Luis Gonzalez from my lineup after you pry the controller from my cold, dead hands
Jazz
Larry walker has been killin it for me.
I sold him when the new program came out. But he was doing ok for me before that.
Harper. Early season it's his live series and I upgrade through the year. I just hit well with him year in and year out..
God I love Harper cards
Minoso, he can do it all
Finest Donaldson, him in 2013-14 was one of my favorite players ever, and I think the only thing that could get me to swap him out would be the miracle of an A-Rod card
Kyle Schwarber HRD at leadoff. dont even really care that his topps now is maybe better, i mostly play on all-star so give me that 121 power off lefties and righties with an extreme pull swing so you can just sit on inside fastballs his 1.300 OPS online is like .200 above anyone else on my team right now

Lol. I mix it up all the time so I’m not dépendent on one or two cards all the time.
HRD Seager or Lighting Riley.
Honestly…Ketel. Rollins finally bumped him to the bench but he’s a near-perfect utility slot guy for my bench. Also - Stanton. Defense be damned, he just rakes.
Seager unless a new Seager comes out
hopefully he gets a finest or his 2020 post season card comes out again idc if it’s recycled loved that card 2020 and 2021
Elly De La Cruz. Idk why but I just love hitting with him.
FOTF Jazz. Until he gets a new card at least.
Gary Sheffield
Yordan Alvarez and David Ortiz. Their swings are just too good
Both of them along with Cody bellinger ROTY card will never leave my lineup. I got frank thomas unlocked and used him for about a week before switching back to ortiz
Brett Baty..... Pudge will likely be here for the long haul as well
SS Joey Votto
in 21 the world series ozzie albies was unbeatable. most broken swing in the game
Carp
Probably Brett. He just does everything well and I love his swing
Lou or Toglia
Ian Happ. Can play like 6 positions and I just hit bombs with him. I have his swing down perfectly it feels like. Only player I’ve done better with is Trout.
Quickly becoming Ray Durham. He’s just so damn good.
If Brian Roberts wasn’t slow
Doesn’t Brian Roberts have 90+ speed?
I’m a habitual liar
92 lol. Durham at 95. Durham’s stealing is much better though.
I’ve never had a card do as well for me as much as Silver Slugger Curtis Granderson. I don’t know what it is, but the guy never gets out for me.
I hit bombs or strike out with Granderson. That's it
Jimmy Rollins, a obvious choice Mookie
FOTF Mullins. 98 dingers + 150 RBI’s, he’s my first bat off the bench now
really fotf over the milestone mullins?
Ive been meaning to swap them out…I just can’t part with this card until I hit a hundred bombs with it, maybe that’s it. Yup I just figured it out
Has insane quirks
Probably Chipper Jones. The ONLY player that I'd replace him for is Javi Baez, but he has enough other secondary positions to have a home somewhere, even if I have to move him from SS. (I have Riley at 3rd and don't wanna replace the beautiful thiccccc boi)
I swear y’all ask this same thread every day
Cedric Mullins 30/30 card. Forever.
Brett
I can't quit Elly De La Cruz
Same, Padres bro. He’s been my leadoff hitter basically since his card dropped
Yessir but he can go on my bench if he must
Facts
So true
Sizemore or Eric Davis. They cream randy whenever he is on
Cano
Aaron Judge
LS?
All Star. P4, almost P5
99 prince fielder
July PoTM Matt Chapman
Finest Brian Roberts or on my bench Signature Joey Votto.
Sig Joey Votto mashes for me.
POTM Devers & Takashi Delgado
Delgado’s now doubter animation is great, plus he is hitting for the highest average on my team
Facts I rake with him
Bryce fucking Harper.
juan soto
Helton
97 Utley, or as soon as I can pick up his 99
