As a Sony fanboy I’m ok with it on Game pass. Yes you get it day one but if you preorder you get it 4 days early. I highly doubt Sony is to upset with the whole game pass deal because if you love the game like most of us do, you will be buying Stubbs at some point to get packs or better players and all that money goes right to Sony. Xbox wins because it needed a baseball game, Sony wins because it gets to reach new customers with or without the game pass.
Anyone who buys stubs is a fool.

Do both.
Why limit yourself to 1 console when there's cross progression lol
That way if PSN goes down, you can hop on Xbox and play. And vice versa lol -

Buy the game. Pre-order packs and stubs always work out as more value than $100 in stubs at launch.
Packs are fire and prices stay up 2 days post launch until the first stub sale.
150k stubs is way more than what you get with deluxe. As long as it stays on game pass all year, you will definitely be better off with the stubs.
Deluxe gets you:
2 diamond choice - roughly 20k each
6 gold choice - at best an average of 3k each
25k stubs
10 pack - 15k stubs
Total - 100k stubs value.The reason to buy the game isn’t stubs it’s the early access.

MLB published the game on Xbox so this was a deal brokered between MLB and MS. Sony and SDS likely have no knowledge of the deal until it was announced. Even if Sony had knowledge of the deal there is not much they could have said about it or done about it. MS saw a window and an opportunity to boast both the arrival of the game on their platform, boast their service and their new systems all in all a good deal. Sony could respond in some way but not sure how or just allow it and get ready to cash in at the same time with stubs being sold as that will for sure go into their pocket

Xbox just did a bat flip on playstation with gamepass
Sony is kind of the real winner since they own SDS and all the money they’ll be making in stubs will double, maybe triple this year... I think this is a gesture to say “console wars are over, everyone won”

FWIW, the amount of stubs you make in the early access is worth $200 in stubs...

when MLB forced Sony to make this game multi-platform, Sony Execs must have seen this scenario coming.
If they did not, then I'm not sure what to say.

I don't buy stubs, just wanted to get that out first. The only reason I see for me is 4 days early means I get a head start to edit the ratings/attributes. I always seem to find many edits necessary, according to what I believe makes sense.
-
This whole game pass debacle is not good for anyone. According to many Websites, Microsoft gave money to MLB for this, not SDS. I was hoping having a multiplatform MTS21 would help SDS get more money to really push the game next gen. Well... look like it wont be happening.

Having an extra four days to stock pile cards and waiting for the real launch day to sell is the early money ticket. Hop on the gravy train with biscuit wheels.

SDS will make more money this year than ever before... And it won't even be close... In no way is it a debacle for them to release it on Game Pass. Especially if they take it off in 3 or 4 months. A lot of people will be invested in the game and buy it. It's a win win for SDS. Stop being so close minded
