Keepers

2 weeks into the season and Keepers are already being benched. Hard to understand. In ‘19, they were very relevant early on. Now dust collectors? Where’s the much needed boost? 🤷‍♂️
Just a Silver team from the wrong side of the tracks, so what do I know? 🤷

    If you're able to level their skills, they're likely to still be the best players on your team.
    If you're not having fun, you're losing.

    That’s a HUGE “IF” right now. I’m hoarding resources just to do that

    I have Bench at 6/6 and Brett at 8/6. They are my best options for WOH at their respective sides of the plate. I’ll get Bench to 8/6 before going gold. With the all-star tickets transferring over I get the 2% extra WOH boost so it is essentially 8/8 for them

    I haven’t done FP yet. I’m at 40 on all hitting upgrades and 20 elsewhere. Probably staying there until I can cycle WOH.

    @DFBB
    I need your advice.
    I am at Gold level 6. Team Str- ~70k

    Ok, I have been focusing lately on putting cash into my team Upgrades. However, it seems like I missed out on playing more of my Keepers-Mays, Berra, and Wilhelm. They are leveled at Gold10. Should I have put cash into their skills instead?  Is it still too late?
    seems like they are outdated already. the keepers are all at 169 capped. Yet everything that is coming out now is in the 180s capped.  Did I screw up? Damn.

    You didn’t screw up because their Max overall will increase as better players are released. Once Primes and Legends are introduced, they will become very valuable again, especially if you already have them maxed and their skills leveled.

    I'd prioritize things in this order:

    1)hitting coach
    2)trainer
    3)Clutch performance
    4)in the zone
    5)yogi's skills

    Your keepers are still far and away, the best players you have. Both of my keeper bats are at 8/8 skills, but my Wilhelm' skills are still at zero because they don't actually do anything beyond improving your team strength(which hurts you in season mode).

    thanks for that @navyjack77.
    I am first timer with these Keepers. I wasn’t sure how all this worked. I guess I’ll chunk cash into their skills then!  Cheers.
