Sure... There's usable / unusable cards as well as "Do we really need another ____?"

Williams, Ted 1949 $9.51- Is another Teddy Ballgame card needed?
Lee, Derrek 2005 $9.40- Needed. Helps CHC for team based leagues.
Guerrero, Vladimir 2000 $9.13- Kills RH/Kills LH. I''l take kills RH.
Snider, Duke 1954 $9.03- Nice card. But another one?
Ramirez, Manny 1999 $8.91- Best season. Helps Tribe in leagues.
Belle, Albert 1994 $8.35- See above.
Sheffield, Gary 1996 $8.01- Another Sheff DH card?
Belle, Albert 1998 $7.20- Another Belle DH card?
Pena, Carlos 2007 $7.07- Helps TB. Best season as well.
Hafner, Travis 2006 $7.06- Good card. Makes Tribe much better.
Stargell, Willie 1973 $7.06- Best season. But another DH.
Maris, Roger 1960 $6.96- ?????
Lemon, Chet 1979 $6.30- Good choice. Helps DET.
Crawford, Carl 2010 $6.27- See Pena...
Teixeira, Mark 2005 $6.00- Not his best card IMO. TEX already has Palmiero
Wells, Vernon 2003 $5.97- Good choice. Helps TOR
Youkilis, Kevin 2007 $5.80- Not his best card. ???
Sievers, Roy 1957 $5.75- Nice Card. Best card. Needed though?
Morneau, Justin 2006 $5.05- Helps MIN. Good card.
Polanco, Placido 2007 $4.99- Already have Whitaker. Good card though.
Christensen, Cuckoo 1926 $4.63- Nice card. Good choice. Not an exciting pick...
Pierre, Juan 2004 $3.64- Helps Miami. Good card.
Vidro, Jose 2000 $3.33- Helps MON @ 2B. Needed.
Kipnis, Jason 2015 $3.32- I don't get it. ??? Tribe have Alomar already.
Beckert, Glenn 1971 $3.06- ???? Cubs have Sandberg. I sorta see this as OK in lower salary leagues.
Figgins, Chone 2014 $0.85- Again... WTF?

Kershaw, Clayton 2016 $9.77- Good pick.
Ryan, Nolan 1991 $7.13- Nice. But needed?
Webb, Brandon 2006 $7.00- Good. Helps ARZ.
Martinez, Dennis 1990 $6.87- Good. Helps MON.
Jimenez, Ubaldo 2010 $6.69- Good. Helps COL in theme leagues.
Putz, J.J. 2007 $5.10- Good. Needed pick.
Ryan, B.J. 2006 $5.10- Gives TOR another top arm in the pen.

Visick--
he already knows (been around a long while), hes trying to be argumentative because I posted that I knew prior to pricing that many of the cards aren't very usable in most leagues.
Yeah, its magic powers, or maybe its b/c
the vast majority of the cards are DH, 1b, and corner OFs mostly with mediocre/poor defense. :roll:

A few cards will fill a franchise need- okay, thats cool, but then lets at least recognize its a franchise add. There is no issue with that.

I nominated Duren because he is cheaper version of Tom Hall, A SP/RP with no BP singles. Highly usable, especially in popular parks like Forbes 57.

Whether a card is usable is dependent on price at most caps. At the right price and Cap any of these cards is usable.

keep saying the issue is that the nominees are largely DHs and 1Bs, and poor defensive corners for which there is already a plethora of choices; what we really need is more DHs and 1Bs that you are hoping will come in under priced so they get used?


Don't worry that as Nomad Brad keeps saying Jeff Russell, a good RP would have been a great choice, usable at most caps, was a franchise need for Texas and is USABLE at just about any reasonable RP price.
Lets get more DHs and 1Bs because ya know they just might come in under


My bad. :roll:
