Suzuki - beyond live missions

[spatrick4]

Ichiro's got great D, awesome on the basepaths, and low K's/high average. But not sure otherwise about his bat and eye. At what point do teams start to replace him? His OPS and wRC+ weren't great for me this year, though his WAR was strong. Struggling to get a sense for his value.

Are an SE David Justice / SE Willie Mays enough to take to his place, or is the value of the D strong enough to carry him onto most diamond league teams?

If you are f2p he is likely never to be replaced. Even non f2p still find him useful. He has enough d to start at any outfield position, and he will continue to hit even at the higher levels.

Now that I have the Live Missions completed, my next challenge is to slowly gain players so that my lineup isn’t just a carbon copy of everyone else out there. I got lucky back a few weeks ago and pulled a 100 PEAK Hughie Jennings at SS and just recently pulled a 97 PEAK Brandon Webb to slide into my rotation. Building points through selling off cards from packs earned in tournaments, the 95 PEAK Bill Campbell CL and 95 PEAK Paul Molitor 3B cards were my first purchased upgrades as my bullpen and the Mathews/Longoria cards from the Live Missions represented my weakest links. I won’t argue with a top tier CF candidate to push out Suzuki but I’ll either need a very lucky pull or be ready to shell out a ton of PP for an upgrade. There are other positions which are more of a priority since I value defense and base running (not stealing) very highly.

I predict that SE Ichiro is gonna amass twice as many AB's as any other player in PT21. He'll be on all of my teams for a while, that's for sure. I don't want duplicates across my 3 teams, but I'll make an exception for Ichiro!
