kell or boone

PostTue Oct 31, 2017 2:45 pm

Any experiences with Kell's 5.8 mil card or Boone's 4 mil card? Need to decide between them in a power park, facing about 35% lefty SP, 80 million league. Boone has better power and obp (but looks like he is mostly obp vs. lefties). Kell has clear advantages of defense, little injury risk, all those doubles. Go with Kell?

I know Kell is one of the favorite guy of ATG king Petrosian. Looks like a good bet. Boone's defense (4e25) is pretty harsh...he's a better buy as dh.

In the Polo grounds as a DH Boone has been dreadful for me. Lots of injuries low power and low ob. Kell is a doubles machine.

Consider Vinny Castilla.

Castilla is a great suggestion for the ballpark.

If it's only between Kell and Boone, though, I say Kell all the way!

Kell's a doubles machine. No doubt about it. Never had any luck with Boone. Always lackluster. Buddy Bell has played up to his card in the few times I've used him.

Petrosian likes Kell but the Last Druid hates him.

New cards are in if you haven't started yet tatis is a good choice at 3rd power speed on base % and solid def!
