Chris Carter LOL Anyone else have him?

I tell ya, I'm not sure what to do with that guy. 60% of the time it's a K, a BB or a HR and he only hits 200. Not really an RBI guy and not a run scorer. I'm sort of stuck with him but I just don't know where he fits in my lineup!

Does not hit into DPs though!

What are other people doing with him.

I had him in my Boston fantasy roster last year. I put him #6 and held up + power swing all the time with him. At #6, his bad points do less damage and him pulling stuff towards the Monster, it worked decently.

And if he takes a walk - great.

Could also move him to #7 or #8. See if the pitcher falls asleep on him and you get something you can crush.

I'm an A's fan and this brings back all the memories of the high hopes I had for Chris coming up in the system. Although much of my hopes have been dashed when it comes to the team developing hitters for several years now.

Re: Chris Carter LOL Anyone else have him?

You could go for the "dual lineup" strategy and have him anchor the bottom half of your order. He sounds ideal for that.

Either that or if you're doing DD have him as your go to pinch hitter.

Re: Chris Carter LOL Anyone else have him?

The issue with Chris Carter is on this game and last couple of years his batters eye is very small, if u turn in ZONE you will see what im talking about. He is a good HR hitter at times for me anyways when he was a astro, but its hard to hit many HRS with him because of the small batters eye.

Chris Davis to a smaller extent as well. I've always had some difficulty hitting with him compared to other sluggers, especially in home run derbies. CPU can't hit with him either. I've actually considered editing Davis a bit.
