Jarrett Parker MVP x 3

I dont think a 12 team league can be anywhere near compared to playing with a Jarrett Parker card. The realism comes from the computation of rolling the dice and getting somewhere close to real mlb stats over the course of a season.A true unleashed should include top prospects based on their potential.

Again, feel free to unleash all you like. But if we are going to unleash lets go all the way and create a card for ourselves, kids, nephews and my longball softball hitting buddy whose garage I drink beer in. If we dont want to be hypocrites then lets truly unleash!
My first rd pick is Jenny Finch followed by Jessica Mendoza,

The only concern I would have is if the card distorts the play balance. If getting the card is conferring an advantage such that owners are winning their league at a higher rate than average then I think it is silly to play with that card. In that sense realism enters into it. The Harper card is a great card but so even if it gave an advantage we have to play with it because he put those numbers up over a whole year. We don't have to use a player with 70 abs that could distort things. Otherwise, I don't have an issue with it.

The 2015 Unleashed leagues I've played and are playing show no concrete unfair advantage to a team having Parker or Harper.

Here I had a losing record despite Parker's 80 HRs

Here I won the championship with Harper hitting 59 HRs. (Finished 3rd behind Stanton's 68 and Parker's 67). However, my MVP was probably Tyler Duffy who went 21-5 during the regular season. Then went 2-0 giving up just 2 hits in 12 innings in the playoffs
