99 Milestone Nick Kurtz.

Each of the 99 overall cards featured are top-10 at their respective positions. Langeliers provides a very attractive option at backstop, as he's the #2 Catcher according to Meta Overall. Featuring 99 Arm Strength with Catcher Pop Time Quirk, he'll give you about as good of a shot at throwing out would-be base stealers that you can ask for.
Glasnow has an iffy pitch-mix, Kurtz is solid offensively but weak defensively, while Harris II can do pretty much everything. The weekly Spotlight cards have been trending better and better, which sounds obvious with power creep, but these aren't just filler cards anymore. Legitimate starter-worthy cards are releasing and should continue to do so as the year winds down and 99 overalls become the norm.
