    Joc Pederson is a demigod

    This guy has been send by the gods to help stabilized my outfield...

    Wow...love how fresh updating players keeps the mode. Like I'm literally waiting "Joc Pederson"...you know that young player that gets a boost mid season.

    This guy destroys righties...Nice stance, Great Speed and defense.

    Rare combination of Power and Speed plus good contact vs righties.

    I'm in the middle of a game right now...in the 6th inning. Winning 5-4...Joc Pederson has THREE solo shots against Cueto so far in the game.

    11 Homeruns in 157 AB with a .306 batting average while playing a great Center Field
    I'm always switching my outfielder...but it seems Joc came to stay.

    I can't seem to find an effective CF. I had abnormally low hitting numbers with Trout and Mccutchen compared to the rest of my team.

    This forum keep praising Joc so I'll have to give him a try.

      I wanna buy Joc soon.

      I had Yelich out there. He was solid. Then I grabbed Billy Hamilton and Lonrenzo Cain. Both of them are fun.


      Pederson finally got a ratings boost to 81 from 76, so its time to use him

        Joc is my 4th outfielder. I have Melky in LF, Cain in CF, and Heyward in RF.

          I got Gordon LF, Pederson CF, Heyward RF.

          With Marte as my 4th outfielder.

          Makes me sad both of you have Cain and enjoying it...I had to sell him because I couldn't hit a lick with him.

          But his attributes are so good!

            I haven't used Heyward or Gordon, but I use Marte in LF from time to time. I love his speed/power combo.


            The Pirates have a lot of fun players. Josh Harrison can play just about anywhere, and he is great to hit with. He is kinda short, so his strike zone is smaller. With his bat control, it makes him a tough out.

              Joc is awesome. I bought ten of him when he was a 73 and I'm regretting not buying more lol. His stance is sick and he kills righties. My only problem is his defense. For some reason I keep missing routine fly balls with him.

                  Yup, this guy has destroyed me in evry single game I've played against him. Always at least one homerun. I throw a slider below the knees and he still launched it

                    I doubted you guys, but I've seen the light.

                    I decided to throw him into my team for one match to see what happened. First at bat, he hits a homer.

                        I was hitting under .200 for his first 25 AB or so.

                        But decided to stick with him and get his timing down and it has paid off.

                          I put Kiner back in for him hut changed my DD guy to his swing and I think it's just his swing not Joc.
                          I went 3-3 solo shot double and single 3 Rbis and dude quit in the 6th
                          I do like his swing but I just will use it for my DD guy and use Kiner in left

                            I had a satisfying moment last night. I was down 2-0 with two outs in the bottom of the 9th and Adrian Gonzalez hit an opposite field double against the shift (It took him 3 days to get to 2nd base!). I decided to keep Gonzalez in the game because he's basically my only power hitter. Next batter was Soler who also hit an opposite field double to make the score 2-1. Pederson came up and muscled an opposite field walk-off home run at Wagonman.

                            I got to admit, all this happened while Harvey was tired but it was still satisfying - especially against this opponent because of a couple annoyances:

                            1. Harvey was very deliberate on the mound when the bases were empty but pitched very quickly when guys were on base. I'm hopeful balks will be turned one of these days.

                            2. I'm sure some folks do this out of boredom but I'm sure some also do this to show their opponent up. Whenever there was a pop-fly, his fielder would do acrobats before camping under the ball.
