Start with the shark map to get some cool packs and stubs. Don’t worry about trying to complete everything as it’s better to stay patient and have fun
To answer your question for team affinity, Yes it’s best to load up division by division since it’s more efficient

Should I do the Shark Map before of after I do the maps for this inning?

If you’re trying to reach 350 for this season you’re better off tackling the maps/collections/etc that award points for this season. Shark will continue to be there and you can knock that out after you reach desired goal for the season.

If you do TA division by division, you can tackle all 4 seasons at once as many of the repeatable missions are similar, same with the monthly programs. I would commit to completing a week of Topps moments every few days so you can load up on those which will help with the monthly's and TA.
I echo what the 2nd poster wrote, dont stress, have fun. If you load up a team of divison players and eventually use the Team affinity and Topps cards that you win, grind through some of the current season conquest maps, the TA conquest maps, the shark one and you will simultaneously be doing like 3-4 programs and 4 seasons of those programs all at once. I helped my buddy who started last month get somewhat caught up and it seemed like every game he completed he was earning a treasure grove of cards and rewards.

Just got the game so I'm pretty overwhelmed with all that I have to complete.
I'm thinking my best bet is finishing as much if the Player Programs for this inning as possible before next Tues. (The ones in the Collection part of this Inning)
Then working on the Conquest Maps. (knocking out some of the TA progress)
My only question is when I work towards a particular TA; is it better to field a team mixed with players from each division? Or should I knock them out by division?
As you can tell by my ID; I won't be playing online so every amount of XP I will need will have to be earned playing the CPU.
Def go for the bosses before program ends. As others have said, do the collections/maps/showdowns for program xp.
Then I would do the BR program and Topps Now/Monthly Awards (sell EVERYTHING). This should give you a nice chunk of stubs to work with.
Target specific TA cards and use stubs to fill in the rest.

You sure know your way around and have all the acronyms down for being a “new” player…..

Why would I want to sell the TN cards? Won't I need them to finish the Monthly Programs and the Collection Rewards like Mookie, Betta, and Kershaw?

You’re behind coming in this late and I’ve completed every MA program, still not using a single reward from it. Better options out there.
If you want Mookie that bad, go for it. Not worth trying to compete those master collections if you’re just coming in this late IMO. Cheaper and better options are already out with more coming.

Any chance they would release more TN packs later in the game's cycle?
Also, with everything that you get from TAs, why would I need stubs? LS Collection? Other cards not in free packs?

Is the BR Program available to complete offline? I won't play online unless necessary and it would have to be worth my time.

No, it’s completed in BR. It is the most worthwhile in terms of rewards.

To buy cards with.
Lol. I know that. But is there anyone that I could get off the market that would be better than what I can get from the TA programs?
I know cards play different for different people. But if I'm not playing online; I wouldn't need the best cards out there.
I may pick up some of my favorite players to use.
I guess I'll just have to wait and see how much the players are worth when I finish the programs and go from there.

Honus/Larkin, Mantle, Thomas are the only truly endgame cards in TA4.
When you make some stubs buy Verlander, Arrieta, Ryan, Chapman. Fill in rest from market? Should be able to complete Mo for free (don’t collect sellable cards).
