Stubs to spend…what to do?
-
After selling off everything I had since I am not completing the Brett collection anytime soon, I have 3 options that I can do. Heard rumors of a flash sale coming so would likely wait until Friday at the earliest to do any of these.
-
But Delgado, Morgan, and about 10 cover athletes to get Mauer and Ruth.
-
Buy Trout and Ohtani to complete the AL live series collection. Doubt I’d use Glaus or Frank though, can’t hit with either in BR.
-
Buy Acuna, Degrom, and Scherzer to complete the NL live series collection.
Not sure which of these would be best to do.

I am biased. I sold a bunch of stuff for Ohtani to finish AL and regretted it very shortly after. So much so that I sold off a bunch of all star and other cards that I saved for Brett (still no where even close to enough) to buy Takashi and get Delgado and Ruth. I enjoy RS more than anything (even though that is starting to die) and they helped my team way more than a useless Ohtani and Frank. Even though I have my CAP at C, I would take the first choice. Would like to use that Mauer at some point.
As far as RS goes, Trout is really the only useful one in the 2nd choice. 3rd choice is only Utley. You can buy Martel to cover for Utley imo and there are a ton of outfielders. I haven't used FOTF Mullins in a while but he has like 90 HR's and hitting around .380. His swing is so good.

Thanks, that is what I was leaning toward doing. Only
thing I don’t like is it’s not getting me any closer to Randy, but rather have 3 96+ cards that are cracked than just getting one useable card from the LS collections. -

To me the live series is always first. By buying 2 you get what? 5 total cards? Plus all live series cards can be sold going forward.

Who do you have at 2nd and in your outfield?
#3 can get you Utley and Clemente. Plus even though they're roughly around the same cost; you knock out 3 90+s instead of two and you get one outfielder and TWO pitchers. Where if you do the AL it's one and one.

Just too many stubs that are way too hard to obtain this year. I will maintain to say if you don't get extemely lucky with pack luck, flip a ton, win numerous 12 BR runs or spend real money, you are not sniffing Brett for quite some time. I have played a bunch and no where close.

Wait, dont the NL players get you Clemente?
Or are you saying that after you got Thomas you don't think it's worth it to finish the NL?
Clemente and Thomas aren't really the reward for finishing the LS Collection; it's Randy Johnson.

Johnson is absolutely worth it but that is the only one imo. Utley is great too but I can play Marte there and be fine. I literally have like 4k stubbs and need about 800k to finish the NL. That is going to take a month for me even if I sell 300 inning and WS reward when I get to them. I'm just playing with cards I want for now being a realist that Brett is a pipe dream right now.

Wait it out. None of the guys available now are must-haves. You can easily build a highly competitive team without spending a cent right now. Hang onto your stubs, as the 99’s begin to come out, the prices on the live series will plummet, this happens every season.
