2011 Set - New York Yankees

Now this is a good lineup. I expected the pitching to be better – especially the rotation – but none of it is bad, and the lineup offers few breaks for opposing pitchers.


Leading the way is the monster power-hitting, A Speed, center fielder Curtis Granderson. The only thing you don’t like there is his low defense. A-Rod is past his prime, but he’s still a good hitter and defender. I love Derek Jeter as a cheap 9 OB, A Speed shortstop, if you don’t care about infield defense. (Shadows of former teammate Chuck Knoblauch’s OG Showdown cards?)


David Robertson and The Sandman (with his alt-foil) are bullpen beasts. Rivera isn’t the only alt-foil here either. Lastly, Pennant Run addition Andruw Jones no longer gives you speed or defense, but he does give you some nice budget power.


Foils: Robinson Cano, Curtis Granderson, Mariano Rivera, Alex Rodriguez, C.C. Sabathia
