    GG. I just bought Acuna last night. I need DeGrom, Freeman, Strausberg, Soto and Turner to get Glavine. I'm back up to about 70k stubs, so not too far from DeGrom.

    Funny too, Acuna is amazing. I played some conquest with him last night and he was 7 for 7 with 7 hrs in his first at seven at bats. Everything he touched went into the atmosphere.

    The time to sell would've been last night as he's already dropping a little due to the stub sale ending.
    But to answer your question: Do you want to finish the LS Collection and if so, how soon do you want to complete it?

    Judging by your lineup, I can assume that you don't have alot if the KS Diamonds. Especially Trout, Bellinger, Mookie, Cole,, etc.

    Also, is the Xander you're running the LS version or the TA 42 version?

    If you don't care about the LS Collection right now; I would sell. I would assume that later in the year all these high prices LS Diamonds will drop in price.

    Also, with the 200K you would get (roughly) you could work in Team Affinity

    Let's assume you're at 0 for the TAs

    If you didn't do the Exchanges in TA 1, you can do them. And the same for TA 2.

    TA 1: If you buy 72s for the Exchanges you can get them for 25-33 stubs a piece. You would need 150 72s and about 5-6 63s to get each Division done. That would be around 3500-5K. You would get 30 points and would make about half of your stubs back with the stub rewards you would get along the way. (And anything you would get from selling off any cards from packs) The 30 pts you would get would bet you one of the Gold YA cards you need to complete missions. Then I would do the Conquest Maps for each division.

    As for TA2: If you do the Exchanges, you would need 300 72s and about 10 63s (would cost about 9-10K per Division( to get to 60bpts, I think. That would get you two of the lower Diamond players and one if the Final Diamond players. .

    I would also do the Collections where you collect 20 FBs and Legends. If you did ALL the TN Moments, the April MA program, and gave some of the Legend/FB Inning henchman; you can knock these out fast.

    Then I would just do the Conquest Maps, loading up on those low Gold and Diamond players.and the high Diamond player to knock out Missions

    Probably within a few days you can have a solid team FL of Ayers that are better than what you have now.

    Yeah seeing your lineup I'd say definetly sell him. Buy some great cards off the market that aren't super expensive. and start grinding TA2 because your team will get 100x better

    Yeah you’re probably right. I’m so torn on the matter. But it would be nice to upgrade the team all around.

    240k is so many stubs that you can do a lot with, just don't buy packs

    I’ve learned that lesson. I bought a 75 pack bundle once this year already. Not a good purchase lol.

    Free packs have been my golden eggs this year. I’ve pulled Story, Darvish, and now Acuña Jr. on free packs.

    These are some great tips! I wish I would have read them before I spent all my stubs buying cards off the market. Although I am pretty happy with my upgrades, overall.

    But I will keep your tips as a reference to doing the TAs because, as you guessed correctly, I’m essentially at 0 TAs. Although I did unlock the 42 Series Xander by just playing with AL East players, I assume. Grinding programs can be a bit of a chore for me, and I lose interest after a while.

    Keep. 200k stubs is not the quickest amount of money to earn back

    Acuna keeps even higher rated cards out of the lineup because he’s so good. If you have him and Buxton it’s hard to find cards that perform better, so really you could just sell most OF rewards going forward and make the stubs that way.

    I wish. Acuña is the last card I need to complete the AL but I’m stumped on finding ways to make that many stubs fast. Can’t get 12 wins in br to save my life and I’m waiting on this next roster update to see if my investments will be profitable. If only I could just pull that dude.

    If you need Acuna to complete the AL; you're not completing that conference. Lol
    Hilarious bro. Obviously a typo.

    I [censored] wish. Just a typo. How weird are the Yankees getting swept by the Tigers and on the verge of sweeping the Rays?

    You do realize people can see your game logs right? Acuna hasn't even been in your lineup at all... Why do people find it necessary to lie about something so trivial?

    Bro, I'm talking about conquest maps. Offline. I said it in my message. Below is a link to the game log if you don't believe me. I went 1 for 1 in his first game with a HR and then I quit that game and loaded up the one linked below. Go ahead and count the homeruns. 6 for 8 with six homeruns and 8 rbi. Again, it's offline versus the CPU (not gloating), but just saying how his card is a hack.

    Don't jump to conclusions. I'm just sharing my experience with this awesome card.

    Touche, I apologize. I missed that one and I didn't jump to conclusions. I did my research before commenting but it was faulty research. I missed those three because you said last night and my mind went to the games played on the 1st and back. Again, I know when I am wrong and I apologize.

    Its all good. I didn't remember when I actually played that game but I think I was a day off. You're awesome for apologizing and I hold no ill will towards you. Some people on here get really crazy about this game! lol

    It's pretty simple. If you plan on doing LS collection, keep. If not, sell. I pulled Trout and DeGrom within a few days of each other a few weeks back and sold them both. Immediately regretted selling Trout and bought him back the next day (at a stub loss of course). I didn't think I'd go for collections, just started really only getting into DD towards the end of last year so obviously I didn't get into it last year. I decided to go for it this year and I'm currently only Cole away from completing the AL and a few players away from completing the NL. Acuna, DeGrom, Bellinger, Betts or something like that. Long story short, I realllllly regret selling DeGrom!

    I have 500k. Should I buy Acuna, Betts, Tatis and finish 3 teams and just have Trout left, or do Trout and then work back up to get the rest for LAD, SD, and ATL
