    94 Bert Blyleven?


    Is he worth the 12-15k it takes to do the Twins collection? His break and BB/9 both look awesome but with essentially two pitches, is he too predictible?

    12,000 stubs? I did not spend that much even when feeding to get Rod Carew. The most expense guy can be had for around 1800 or so on the weekends.

      It was just a rough estimate going off the highest price of each card currently. Dozier and some common are each over 2k atm. Not super patient as I'd rather get on with it and play. Lol.

          IMO, NOOOO! lol. I got ROCKEd with him and from prior posts, it seems to be the norm.

            He would make a great reliever. Starter? Your opponent will figure it out eventually.

              I know that. I was pointing out that Collections and feeding I didn't even spend 12k.

                I like his stuff but his low H/9 and K/9 ratings make him unusable online since it's set to All-Star difficulty and having those ratings in the 60s will make your opponents' hitting cursor humongous.

                  same thing with Gaylord Perry. I had to take him out of my lineup because he would get chased in the first or second inning by good players.

                    I faced this guy this morning and in CS, I had a bunch of trouble with him. My opponent painted the bottom line of the zone with the curve and then knew exactly when to mix in the fastballs. I could not figure it out. Luckily, I had Max throwing his A game and it was 0-0 in the 13th when my opponent agreed to a friendly quit as I had to get ready for work.

                      He gets shelled from everything I've read on him. Save your stubs and do a different guy

                        Bert is trash. The only thing I wonder about now is if I should sell him for 5,000 stubs or if that it is worth 5,000 stubs to see him hanging out in my collection.
