Thoughts on 3rd Inning Bosses
-
Ok, so I thought these guys would rip to around 35-45K and it looks like they're going to stay around 55K (could drop/raise depending on 4th Into Bosses).
Anyway, I sold mine when I first unlocked the card about two weeks ago. (Give or take a few days) for 60K, so if I would buy at least one back it wouldn't necessarily cost me alot.
However, does anyone think it's wise to buy all three and see if they raise even more?
I have no use for them, as I think I have better options at those positions, and I doubt I'll lock in that many stubs again (locked in the 2nd Inning bosses) and I hit 650K with over a week to spare. And quite honestly, once I hit 350K next sinning; I may not play as much. (Not worth time to get to 650K for a card that's worth 5-8K).
So, what's everyone's thoughts on this?
Buy with intent to possibly make a profit or just spend the stubs elsewhere?

Pretty good chance all inning bosses will be 99 overall, but I’m not sure that will increase or decrease value.
I have all three, but I picked them up for the Mariano collection.

Eck could get me one voucher closer towards Mo (already have Ortiz). But what he would cost to lock in would cost the same as just buying 25 of the Gold prospects.

I suggest if your going to use one of those cards for your team use Eck. He's nasty.

How do you mix Eck's pitches? I've done well with him but admittedly I'm scared every time I bring him in because I feel like hes good at everything but not elite at anything.
In other words I just don't feel like he has an OP pitch I can feel confident in.

I've found that the time to buy is the Friday night of the week before the new program.
I had bought Eck for 50k on Thursday and got the other two at 45k average per Friday during the flash sales.
There's some value in locking them in because you can make a good extra 15k by getting the next boss early (then rebuying the weekend I stated above), not to mention the collection. Having the cards for collections is a bonus too and they are relatively cheap compared to your ws/br rewards

I'm not the best player ever but if you mix the slider and curve with both of the decently fast fastballs for an inning or two in relief you should be fine. His offspeed is nasty.

I understand, he’s actually useable though. I figured if I’m going to lock cards, I’ll lock cards I’ll use.

I have a second Eck because i think he's most likely to rise in price after the 3rd inning. He's my favorite closer to use even over Dibble or Rivera.
-
Every inning player has increased in price so it stands a reason that this inning would be no different
-
I'm not giving away how I mix up Eck's pitches in case I try to play RS
But there is a way. -
I bought 6 of each so I’m hoping to sell them all in 1-2 weeks and pocket a hefty profit

Or you could do the USA map for all 30.
