A great nicknames team would be all kinds of fun.

I am a much more casual player, I have no chance of spending enough money to complete the more advanced team missions. I play more to win than to get all the collections done. He's my every day CF, but I think I gotta put him up.

I´m the same way, I sold Nellie Fox when he was my starting 2B, but just be sure the profit margin after finding a suitable replacement is worthwhile.

Here's an idea: Dykstra - Maddox platoon in CF, with both as 4th OF when on the bench. Would the value be worth keeping Maddox ?

Too late someone snapped my Maddox for 16k already. I'd got Trout already who can fill in fine in CF, I just like being able to shift Trout over to LF as a 106 to give me 100+ players at 2 OF spots and 2 IF spots virtually every game (plus behind the plate with Carter, although he doesn't play as much given that he's sporting a .325 OPS and -8 OPS+ so far this year).

It is! But you gotta take the individuals into account. RF needs a better arm than LF, and Vlad has a huge arm and Trout has a bad one. So Trout is like a 106 in LF and a 90 in RF, whereas Vlad would probably be about even in LF and RF. So to me, I think the gap in their individual talents is enough to play them that way around.

Re: Maddox. I don't think I could bring myself to sell him. I bought in at 6599 PP back in the old days, but that 10K PP difference would have to get a good deal larger for me to think about it.
If anyone's looking for a Dusty Baker, you're in luck! For the low price of 1 million PP! Don't dawdle because the auction closes in a little less than 2 hours.

Hmmm...an interesting ordeal going on right now on the AH with a 93 Vida Blue card. Keep in mind this is NOT the really nice SE card, but the more mundane card with 102/54/60 stats and a 9K last 7 day price.
The card currently has 10 bids and the starting bid is listed as 100K. Either someone really wants this card for a mission or something weird is going on.

SE Dykstra also comes equipped with a howitzer if you need to deploy him in RF. That's what my Phillies build does with Maddox in CF.
