SS Billy Wagner and the stub sale
-
Billy Wagner is one of those cards I'll never give up. Good lefty RP is so scarce in this game, and you should really have three of them in your pen.
-
They really should’ve put a 4th inning boss pack in the 11th inning program.
-
Wagner is so good, I bought him when he drop to 40k when the inning was live and locked him in for Honus. I see hie price now and laugh thinking of the bargain I got him at
-
Quick question about Wagner: When you flick the analogue a hair too far to the left or the right, does he throw it into the dugout like Miller does, or does he have a little better control than that?

While you laugh, I cry when I see his price thinking of the bargain I sold him at.

Wagner was the only one worth it, others were selling in the 35-40k range when program was released
-
If you can make up the stubs to rebuy Wagner why not just hold Wagner and make the stubs to buy hader?

That’s true, but why not still give us one? At the very least just to lower Wagner’s price, which is absurdly high.

I hear you, but at least he’s not at the Gagne price level.

Im not going for Hader. I was going to sell him to get some of the Golds needed for Honus. But when I noticed most of what i need are tied to early programs (and are running close to 10k for a Gold, I'm probably not going to get Honus.
Probably will keep Billy Wagner. But I see he is up to around 200K. If he gets any higher, I may have to take the chance and sell him.
Right as I got him, I bought Ripken for 15K, to lock the 3 of them in and Collect the 30K. But that's when I saw Wagner was at 120K. Add Ripken now being at 40K, and I made a mistake locking him in.
Anyway, I'm thinking next year that im going to work hard at getting any rewards early enough where I can sell early and buy back two of each. That way I can sit on one and hope they blow up in cost. (Gold Perez)

Very true, but still too high for an inning boss, regardless of how good he is.

That was a weird inning in general. If everyone knew how rare good/great lefty relievers were going to be, we would have all taken Wagner and the other two be have been ridiculously high. I’m pretty sure I took McCutch and sold him to buy Wags who was going for less when I hit 300 stars.

Only when his teammates are teasing him too much and calling him "Little Billy". That's when he fires a shot across the bow just so everyone knows he means business and lives in that danger zone between power and restraint

I’m having a issue with boss Wagner I never locked him into any collection cause I knew his was price would be always high and now it’s at 200k+ I want to sell him but can’t. Any ideas why?

Is he locked into your event roster or any of your rosters?

Honestly I slightly disagree that Wagner is super amazing, I use him but only of I go to extras or need a couple innings, my go to lefty is a free to get play 98 Andrew Miller he is lights out for me. I've faced Frank with both and Wagner gets lit up by Frank but 90% of the time Miller gets Frank out. Wagner is an amazing pitcher but I do better with Miller but that's just me. I had a buddy who said Miller sucked so I played him he brought Miller in and I tied the game down by 4 I brought Miller out to pitch and struck out the side on 9 pitches. So I think its user preferences. In regards to selling Wagner I'd say don't just because if his price does drop it wont be by much, however getting Bellinger is a must. I struggled with him at first but now he is one of my best hitters and that Lefty v Lefty pop is no joke, I've had guys bring out lefties to face him and 90% of the time they regret it

That’s why you can’t sell him then

Does anyone think his price will drop a tad when the current event ends since only golds will be eligible?
