Player you hate using but is tied to a mission

I can already tell I'm going to loathe using Phillies Kenny Lofton. Nothing like getting all 40 cards and getting an 82 year old who has no actual offensive or defensive abilities of note!

Agree 100%. Brock Holt is driving me insane. I have him early in the order to get the most at bats but i still have like 60 hits left. He is a 1-4 machine...lol

Just play 9 inning games against the padres on rookie difficulty. You can get 5-6 hits with him per game pretty easily on top of racking up stats with other guys too. Just be aware that playing on rookie will decimate your swing timing for when you go back to legend/hall of fame. I learned this the hard way.

I cannot be wait to be done with Rookie Rickie Weeks. I need 2 Steals and a Double in one game. I keep getting thrown out at 2nd and cannot hit into the gap (or at all with him) to save my life.

I STILL haven't given up. It's not even that I can't get hits with him, it's just a homer and double is rough. I also had a 100-hit challenge with Bichette (veteran version), but knocked that out. Basically I'm tired of Bichette but now I refuse to give in until I pull it off. I don't care if it takes 600 ABs it's my white whale.

I feel good that I got the Konerko one done within a couple games after reading a couple of these.

I'm with all of you. I honestly see the devs changing this challenge. It's just so absurd. HIT A DINGER AND A DOUBLE (IN THE SAME GAME) WITH THIS BATTER WHO DOESN'T HIT VERY HARD AT ALL

I kid you not, I hit FOUR home runs last game with Bichette (was on Rookie obviously) and didn't get it because he was 4-5 with FOUR home runs but no double. Two of his homers hit off the very top of the wall, and I was thrown out in my final at bat digging for two -- it was an insanely close play.

I was devastated.

Chris Tilman obviously because of his motion.. Dudes a beast for me, almost 10ks or more every game but it's just so slow....I got like 21 ks left & he'll be done with for the diamond player.
