No money spent collections

I'm going to try and collect all the commons and exchange all my duplicates to get all the bronzes and so on for silvers and gold. Is this a bad method? I figure it might be a good idea since there won't be many roster updates tell the season starts

Don't forget to check the CAP collections section. You get maybe 20k extra stubs (don't know if anyone mentioned this yet)

Well I went after the AL East first since it seems to be lightest on your stubs this season. Then focus on getting some stubs for that Chris Sale since his price is plummeting because of his tommy john surgery. Yankees will take a while since Cole is an insane 99-100k but the golds are cheap. Jays and Orioles is cheap probably less than 10-12k for their whole collection together.
My only diamond pull was for Cole and at the beginning I was thinking of selling him but a few days in he was only at 50k now that he is 90-100k it is very tempting to sell to complete some packs but I like to have him as he is the most expensive guy on the AL East collection.

I’ve only pulled Yates this year. I sold pretty much every card I’ve gotten in free packs or playing and saved up for trout. My rationale is at this point in the year he’s one of the best card in the game. If you wait till June you may not need him as much. And FoTF are better than most live series so go for one you can actually put in your lineup.

I've been doing the sliver to gold exchanges. That's helped me along the way. I have about 10 players left, but of course they're all expensive. Best pulls were Betts, Story, and Jose Ramirez.

I've only spent on the original price of the game and have pulled a few diamonds to help with stubs, 12-1 in events and a few BR runs that resulted in good stubs. I currently have 10 collections fully done, and the rest of teams have 30/40 needed. I've literally been doing a few players everytime I log on, mainly cheaper ones but then bite the bullet on the expensive ones (the 2k bronze card on the TB Rays, yuck). I won't be buying the expensive ones, Trout, Bellinger ect. Hope I pull those or get them in BR/Event runs. Don't depelete your stubs, keep a good balance. May take longer, but better to have some, then none. Long story short, I go cheap to expensive on all teams

How do you guys attack collections? Most to least expensive? One division at a time? Flip cards all day instead of playing the game? I really want biggio first. Packed yelich and selling him would help but I play really well with him. Interested to see everyone’s preferred methods for collections. I’ve currently got all buy orders in for commons and then doing all bronzes and so on.
Unlike previous years the gap between "buy now" and "sell now" is smaller. Seems to be pointless mostly now of flipping cards. I'm trying to be patient this year and let the free do most of the collecting for me. I only buy cards when needed to complete missions etc.

Is the silver to gold worth it? Without digging into the numbers too hard, I didn’t think it was worth it because of the inflated prices on silvers
-
Not even trying for collections this year unless I pack Bellinger. Then I'll push for it, otherwise imo it's not worth it. Mantle looks great, but he's not worth locking in over 1 million in stubs for. Besides, literally none of the team options make my squad right now aside from maybe Doolittle.

I never purchased sliver players, just exchanged whenever I got duplicates in random packs or team packs. It might not be worth it now like it was 1-2 weeks ago because of the prices dropping.
