    I bought 6 and look to be making a decent amount of stubs before a patch happens. (at least a substantial amount considering the low amount I invested). I bought all for under 300

        Gamboa isn't new. I've been using him for over a month. I've faced him too and I can hammer him.

        He's ok, but not just anyone will succeed with him vs a good player.

          I heard that mlb might be taking him out of the roster in the next update. How true that is idk but I had like 5 of him that I had from packs and I bought anouther 5 for around 150-250 and resold half today for 500-650 so I'm fine with that turn around. May sell the other half tomorrow if I find out that's true about the update. I'll keep 1 bc I only need chris Davis to finish the Orioles (plus like 3-5 low price guys. I won't need the legend reward so it would purely be for the 5% bonus.

            What's confusing to me is has he appeared in an MLB game yet? I thought they could not add in a player if he had no played in at least one MLB game.

            Gamboa aint really cheating, but it is mad cheesy to use him. Especially when it is rare to see a person that uses him. People that choose to use him gain a significant advantage since you rarely see pitches that slow. Niekro is much easier to hit IMO due to his KB being faster than Gamboa's. I'm sure if I played a few games against him I'd be fine, but I've ran into him one time so far and that isn't enough to get an actual feel for him.

              From the PPP I watch stream they are starting to see him and wright from the Red Sox combined about as much as niekro. I played a lot over the last two days and haven't seen either or niekro in a while honestly

                    Only wound up scoring one more run on him. That was all I needed though since Latos threw an 80 pitch shutout. Plenty of hard hit balls against Gamboa though, the knuckleball was not impossible to hit by any means. Pretty easy actually.

                      Facing that POS now. I'm so annoyed.

                        just faced this guy for the first time. anyone who would even question whether or not it's cheesy to use him is a scumbag in my book. it's the most ridiculous thing i've seen in the game.

                          Your PCI is pretty big, (if you don't use zone you deserve to lose) He's tough to hit, but if you sit on the fastball you can hit him hard. Once you hit the fastball hard a few times, then they will only throw the knuckler, sit low middle and just watch it the whole way. He is annoying to face but not impossible. Early just focus on the fastball has been nmy route to sucess vs him. I faced him 3 times and am 2-1 against him. and have gotten at least 3 runs each time. every player used him the same way, after the fastball was hit hard for homeruns, I didn't see another fastball the rest of the game. I was able to scatter some hits vs the knuckler.

                            the guy I played threw 95% knuckle balls.

                              Isn't that what a knuckle pitcher is supposed to due?

                                I dunno, I'm not a big baseball fan so I couldn't tell you. I just think it's lame to sit there and throw the same glitchy pitch that takes 2-3 seconds to make it to the plate.

                                just played another one of these losers. I only struck out twice, but many many pop ups and ground outs. pretty much all of my hits were HRs or doubles/triples. I gotta tell you, hitting HR's against Gamboa gave me the feeling of hitting HRs against Neshek only x10.

                                Salvador Perez hit an FU no doubter in the top of the 9th when I was already up 4. god that felt good.
