    Through selling every Future Star (and then flipping them), I've managed to get my stub count up to 900k. What to do, what to do...

    1. I will grind through my 300 RS innings, pick up Maddux, and lock him in for Babe. So I don't need any Takashi cards as of now.

    2. Live series - I'm missing Trout, Ohtani, Acuna and Tatis. Should I bite the bullet and buy any of them now, or hold on and wait for a "90+" flash sale to possibly bring their prices down?

    3. For the Brett Collection - I should be able to get him, skipping the Future Stars (as I have a grand total of 1) sometime in the next 2 weeks.

    So... what should my priority be? I'm thinking of just being patient and waiting for the Flash Sale. Or, I could buy a ton of packs.

    P.S. If your advice is "Buy a ton of packs", you failed the test. Friends don't let friends buy packs.

    1. Wait a little longer, there is an Xbox stub sale going on. That’s the reason why prices are so high. SDS will have to deflate the market somehow and the only way I can think of is to flood it with LS packs in a flash sale

    I think a flash sale is definitely due in the next week or two. I also wouldn't be super surprised to see a 90 Live Series pack in the next featured program. There is also an "Other Program" coming on Thursday that is says "loaded with packs". It really seems that anytime we have those "loaded with packs" programs that it brings the market down some.

    Hahahaha, I read the buy a ton of packs and thought, this feels like a trap. It's A Trap!

    I would wait till a flash sale and in the meantime, flip cards and build your fortune.

    Don't buy packs. Don't do it.

    Pretty sure future stars doesn't have a voucher for Brett. Mauer/Babe plus the other categories are needed, save 1.

    I'm tempted to say wait for flash sale (XBOX stub sale currently happening until 6/16 as well). If you don't have Mauer, you could probably clean that collection up for under 100k (if you've saved ones you've earned so far -- I need 7 more which is about 91K assuming 13k each)

    FS does have a voucher.

    And Grizzly Adams did have a beard.

    I just checked right now, and there absolutely is a voucher for FS.

    And if you still need proof about Grizzly Adams, you can find it here:

    We got a pack sale around this time last year (think it was early July). Wait for the pack sale as that will cause LS prices to fall big time.

    I did pick up a LS Scherzer in my last Headliner's pack, so I'm feeling lucky.

    900k stubs = 600 packs plus 12 Chase packs. I mean... it's a no-brainer. There has to be like... 2 Trouts, 3 Acunas and 5-6 Tatiseseses in there.

    Should be a lot of free packs coming Thursday from the program and conquest map. I’d probably pounce on those 90+ this weekend.

    Dude, with 5K stubs you could buy 3 packs. And each pack could potentially have 4 Trouts. Are you going to be a little girl and save your pennies for the salon, or are you going to man up and bring home a dozen Trouts to feed your family?

    Of course not, I’m buying stubs right now. Will buy another 50 bundle, I asked my dog to bark if he was able to sense Trout and he did it twice. So, dupe Trout on its way!

    Plural of Tatis is spelled with an i.

    I'm a terrible friend. But.... I did get to visit my daughter in Colorado for 5 days. I will have to average 16 innings a day for the rest of the cycle to make it.
