What's your Event team(s)? April 28th - May 1st

[NYYsportsjunkie]

Just curious as to what some of you guys are running out there? While I'm not thrilled with these prizes, I've always enjoyed these kind of tournaments that force you to use concept teams, typically with a ratings cap, it's a nice opportunity to use some of your decent lower rated cards & play a cleaner, more strategic game, more concerned w matchups, & ect .

So what's good lol???

I'm currently running
2B hardware Carew
1B Cepeda
3B Correa
LF Schwarber
C Sanchez
RF Judge
SS Story
CF rookie George Springer but I'm have David Dahl as a lefty with Speed & a bat, might toss him in to balance the lineup

If it wasn't for Cepeda I'd be rocking rookie Trumbo, love that card, & I'll stick him in RF if Judge doesn't work out (who btw does have 72 con 85 pwr vs lefties right now)

Staff is

Marichal, picked up today
Urias, boosted to 84
rookie Scherzer
rookie Tehran
breakout Eovaldi

Haven't played yet but I'm about to get started lol. Not looking forwards to guys w/ Trout / Harper / Seager / lindor / Machado lol

You cant use diamonds.

I had:

C - Gary Sanchez or Hardware Soto
1B - Breakout Rendon
2B - Odor
SS - Correa
3B - Hardware Hanley
LF - Rookie Jim Rice
CF - Breakout Tony Gwynn
RF - Yelich

Rotation was Postseason Garza, Aaron Sanchez, McCullers, Rookie Teheran and super boosted Taijuan Walker today.

The squad I'm running out there right now:

2B: Rookie Roberto Alomar
SS: Jose Ramirez
CF: Rookie Griffey
1B: Hardware Cepeda
3B: Rookie Chipper Jones
LF: Christian Yelich
RF: Rookie Springer
C: Rookie Posada

Rotation: Marichal, Hardware Fulmer, Breakout Robbie Ray, Rookie Archer and Steven Matz

During my last run, I finally finished the rookie hr's to complete the Chipper Rookie Program. I'm running more switch hitters to finish the Ozzie Smith Player Epic II. Only 10 more hits left. I'm actually on a pretty nice run with this squad.

Not sure why, but I loved this lineup. Went 10-0 as my first and only entry.

LF: Conforto
3B: Rendon
1B: Gallo
SS: Story
2B: Odor
C: Soto
CF: Odubel Herrera
RF: Eddie Rosario

Rotation: Eovaldi, Matz, Snell, McCullers, Sanchez

What is everyone doing with the Jackie Robinson? Sell now or wait? I want to maximize his value and I'm not sure how to do that.

I was wondering the same thing, part of me thinks he might go up in price after the evens been over a while but Im not sure. Probably wont ever get him anyway because I cant play 10 straight games without a few disconnects or freezes mixed in.

I'm having the same problem today. I just lost an 8-0 BR run because of a freeze in a game I was winning 4-0. It's brutal, things had been going fine but now I have to cross my fingers every game.
