Looking forward to having some fun with cards I don't use in my main team (e.g. Piazza, Donaldson, Ted, Chipper). Agree that they need to add awards and ideally more Rewind packs since many will be maxed from Central.
-
What's the word people that are at their consoles? Any added rewards?
-
All star
Quick counts
6 innings
Fenway park
Awards stop at 75 -
So no new awards? Oh well I guess. Will still be fun
-
As of now I can't even get into it, says it's not available to me because I don't have PS Plus, even though I'm paid up till March and have it on autopay.

Restart your game

No rewards past 75. Which is an epic SDS blunder, you have awards well past 100 for the average 2 part event ( some for a one off), but a 3 part event with each lasting almost 10 days stops at 75.
Ridiculous.

I've played two games so far. First game my opponent quit after I scored 6 in the first. 2nd game was a back and forth slugfest. I scored 6 in the 2nd, and my opponent scored 6 in the 4th. I squeaked out a 10-9 win. I have a feeling no pitcher is going to be safe in this event.
On a side note, apparently Finest DJ Lemahieu is pretty good. .432 and 6 HR in 37 AB so far. I may have to start using him more often. Is it the quirks? He has Dead Red, Breaking Ball Hitter, Rally Monkey, and Situational Hitter, Unfazed, First Pitch Hitter, and Pressure Cooker and I think I read someone saying Finest actually have active quirks this year.

Anyone know if they allowed Finest cards in the past two US Events?
Yes
ANY Finest or just ones from the Eastern divisions?
Just eastern divisions
Well that sucks. Did exchanges and Conquest for Finest Machado, Betts, and Perez and I can't even use them.
Oh well. Guess I'm not getting Bellinger then.

Finest? No where near them. Unless I can squeeze in a PS or TN player into my lineup; it's not worth me playing since I don't have any LS Golds/Diamonds in that Division.

LeMahieu has been a huge surprise to me too. He's always had a terrible swing until this card

Soto, Realmuto(He's the worst of the finest catchers IMO but still good enough), Freeman, Acuna, Santander, Lemahieu, Gurriel are all solid cards. I think Bogaerts and Rojas are trash though

I couldn't hit at all with his Finest card last year, and since I prefer more speed up the middle I really didn't have much incentive to keep throwing him out there.
I've been mostly sticking with 99 Corey Seager at 2nd, but he has been slumping. I may have to start trying out LeMauhieu in ranked.

C TDA
1B Freeman
2B Cano
3B Turner
SS Albies
LF Soto
CF Harper
RF Ruth -

I'm at 0 pts for all those teams. Other than buying Scuba outright; I would have to do all the exchanges and Conquest Maps to get them.
Nit sure I would have enough time to get them before the event ends.
It took me close to two weeks to just get the exchanges done for Perez, DeGrom, Machado, and Darvish.

Two weeks for four cards? Who are you using for exchanges? I went from 3% to 80% on every team to get all the finest cards and was knocking out multiple teams each day. I targeted 83 and 84 live series golds which were all selling for close to quick sell value. I'm sure it's more expensive than using bronze or silver cards, but I more or less broke even with all the other rewards earned along the way.
-
Just a suggestion: Why not just sell the cards you earned, buy the East cards, try them out, and sell/buy back whatever you prefer? The market is pretty calm with these cards and you’re going to net $10k+ on most flips anyway.

72s. I wasn't in a hurry to get anyone and after I get back the stubs along the way, they're almost free.
