Ellsbury or J.D. Drew? I've never seen them used and was curious how much their price tags will be lowered for the 9?

I have used him several times and I think he under preforms. I am trying him again in a league starting Monday as part of a platoon.

Defense and being Bulletproof gives Ellsbury more value than is realized. But we usually look at offensive production, when other factors factor into a card's value as well.

Yeah, Ellsbury's card has everything "going for it" to keep it up in the upper stratosphere for price. Blunt instruments seem to always be the best bargains in strat---or at least the threshold for surviving offensively in ATG is so high its often only for plus-plus bat only guys...and Willie Mays.

Now, my HOFer, Bobby Abreu, I wonder if very flawed, newer cards like that could see an integration into the competitive ATG structure (cards that maybe saw many "versions" and got more and more idealized prices)

My issue with some past repricings has been how they only covered a card here and there, when a large swath of the player pool was priced a decade+ age maybe by a different company (TSN). Price synchronization yo, but it's exciting.
