2019 Player Review Thread

[jake19ny]

My Best:

All-Star Steve Finley is awesome and affordable. He has been the player of the game 7 times in RS. I hit a homer with him in almost every game. He rakes lefty and rightys the same.

The Dave Parker you get for completing the Reds collection is another great card and the Reds are easy to complete.

Both those guys are really solid defensively too.

I took the 95 Goose with my boss pack pick and he’s my go to closer. Great stuff.

Underrated:

I like the LS silver Pat Neschek. Guys can’t hit him and he’s a great 7th or 8th inning guy.

77 Rookie JT Realmuto rips singles and the occasional HR

Worst:

Don’t really have one but I don’t hit as well as I would like with LS Trea Turner. He’s my lead off hitter and grounds out too much. I also can’t hit with LS Soto to good.

I have no idea how many of yall got Kerry Wood, but I can't hit that guy.

Also, pretty pricey reward, but the Kenny Lofton you get from completing the AL Central is a PROBLEM. I don't have him yet but he terrified me everytime he was at bat and on the bases. Great fielder too.

I can’t hit Wood either but I had him and couldn’t pitch with him lol. I sold him and picked up Prior and pitch well with him. They were roughly the same price

I might have to play him then, hes been sitting on my bench behind Acuna, Andruw Jones and Steve Finley.

Max Muncy absolutely rakes for me. He can hit both righties and lefties with power, and isn't too slow for a first basemen. Easily the budget beast this year.

signature trevor hoffman sucks

that is all

Anyone get that Mattingly WS card? He was my favorite player growing up but I’m not sure I wanna spend the Stubs to get him when SS Frank Thomas is lurking.

I feel like everyone is just getting these cards to sell. Don't see a single person using it lol. But, if he was your favorite player growing up, maybe you can nab him for cheap and pick another SS card up? I doubt there will be an enormous difference between him and frank



Anyways, I'm on a 9-1 BR run at the moment, and a couple players stick out to me:

LS Corey Seager is back to his 2018 tricks, dude is killing it. Too bad he been trash in real life and might drop

Trevor Hoffman....meh. But I'll still probably take him so I can get more sig cards faster

Don't ever pick breakout or all star AJ Ramos from the Marlins, it is trash

Finally, Adam Duvall has hit 3 pinch hit game winners for me. I could kiss you, you beautiful man. Just get me 3 more wins and Machado is mine...

If I get Manny, I could finish Yanks/Indians....
