The lineup includes legit heavy hitters like:
Walker Jenkins
Harmon Killebrew
Brian Dozier
Royce Lewis
Buckton
Even some gold-tier players become usable thanks to these boosts. And on the mound? Danny Coulombe is arguably the best LH reliever in the game right now. Guys like Justin Topa and Griffin Jax round out a capable, if not elite, bullpen.
How To Use Captains Strategically
Let's be clear- going full Tier 3 theme team with 26 players from one squad is fun, but it's not always optimal. You don't have to go all-in to benefit from captains.
Here's a more competitive strategy:
Slot in 5-10 players from the same team
Unlock Tier 1 or Tier 2 captain boosts
Mix with your God Squad
This approach lets you maintain top-tier meta talent like 99 José Ramírez, Beltrán, or Hodges while enhancing select cards with boosts. For example, the Cleveland Guardians offer a very playable Tier 1 buff that still grants +5 to critical stats like Power and Clutch. Bo Naylor becomes a near-elite hitter with the right boost.
You're essentially upgrading your favorite usable cards while keeping your best meta players intact.
