Not that it matters because all pitchers can field in this game, but he should also have 99 fielding!
He did win 18 GGs!!! Lol 18... That's ridiculousHe probably has a room in his house just for the gold gloves
Fun fact. 40% of all pitcher gold gloves since 1990 have been won by either Maddux or Greinke. 30% of them just being Maddux
I think part of this speaks to the laziness of the BBWAA members lol
Greg makes great gift baskets
Jeter gave them, but not to writers, ho-hum...

Don't get me started on the BBWAA. Rick Porcello really owes them one for 2016

Well, there goes my stubs. Just got it built back up some, after acquiring gold and unders, but this is definitely going to put a hole in my stub wallet. But, he is my all-time fave so back to grinding USA.
I’m down to 32K stubs but did a bit of counting and when my investments start paying off in a week or so, I’ll have over 1.2M. Can’t wait. Hate being poor

Yeah I would be too. Always like to have a decent amount in front of me but had so many investment opportunities I just spent them all and they all went up so much past week or so.
Now I’ve completed the LS so it’s not as bad but I always feel weak without any stubs lol

They should really cap the number of duplicates people can own; it's ridiculous.

Me too. Wondering what the price will be.
37.5k, 5 silvers, and your sanity at least
C'mon bro, I get plenty of commons with those silvers, so it's totally worth it!!!!!

I've got maybe 130. Unlike you though it's slow going for me as I don't sell off non-dupes, and I've sworn off the market. I take what the game gives me, grind USA conquest, and work the caps for diamond equipment. After four years of market work, I just want to play the game.

Today..
I know the velo shouldn't be too great. (Though they gave Glavine a 96mph fastball lol). But his control will be maxed out! I'm excited to try this card
Maddux threw 96 and was considered a power pitcher with the cubs. He also ran it up there with the braves but threw the 2 seamer at around 92 which was his primary fastball because he became a pitch to contact pitcher. Maddux threw a lot harder than most think he did as did glavine who threw it up to 96 when he had to. They just didn't have to because of movement. Velocity was also measured different back then.

Give it like a week and he'll be 35k
-
Here's the thing -- If the Youtubers and such praise him then he will prolly rise in value BUT if they show he is not as good then he will go down THAT is the nature of how it works. It comes down to what i just said and IF he has pitches that fit into what the META is for pitching atm so we shall see

Maddux never hit 96.. ever.. he ran it up to 93 in his younger days at the peak, but usually sat around 89-90 with 2 seamers, his primary pitch.
I'm from back then, followed his entire career too. There aren't many pitchers I know more about than him. Have his signed jersey in my son Maddux's room too
-
I'm posting a sell for 37,500 and crossing my fingers someone bites. Not going to fork over that much in stubs just to not get him.
Still want that card though. -

Greg's an absolute legend.. but he preserved himself and didn't need to build velo. He outsmarted guys better than anyone

That’s exactly what I did with my 500K. Spent every last dime and the cards I bought are already up 3-4K each and I have hundreds of them. I bought alot of cards that not many else did I’m pretty sure. Didn’t touch any of the LS or space packs

I only dropped 1.1M but I should come out about 700K profit from it when it all sells.

What I struggle with is when to pull the trigger. A few are easy to figure out but some may be more lucrative later
