Thanks for the heads up boo! Padres completed.

I can't even afford the Cardinals Collection. I certainly can't afford any other teams.

Well I had to buy 99 Edmonds, Walker and now Smith so I am back down to less than 20K and still need both live series Arenado and Goldschmidt (roughly 200K) and still don't have 99 Wainwright (125K).
I don't flip or invest and the grind for stubs this year seems slow unless you get some pack luck on your side.

He may come back Friday but since they do new roster updates every week ( not rating adjustments but new players sent up and down etc ) might they not wait til the next week ? I mean it prolly is good advice to do it now then take the chance but just something to think about.

Hand over that card Doly lol
-
Thinking the same thing -- had to hustle to get enough stubs, but fortunately pulled an Acuna card to make up the difference and snagged a Machado to complete the team. I think it will save about $150,000 or so stubs in the end.

His first game back is Thursday. Typically, the cutoff date is Wednesday night games, but this is obviously a different situation. He doesn't have to wait for his MLBPA paperwork to clear.
If he's not in the Friday update, I'd be shocked.
-
Yeah this is a no-brainer and they were definitely one of the first teams I completed. I probably won't have the LS done for many more months as I just don't make it a priority, but in a situation like this I wasn't about to make it any harder on myself.
-
Dumb question but what does completing the team have to do with the price of Tatis?
-
Uh, Tatis wont be but what a silver? Maybe a low gold? I wouldn't worry too much there will be more then enuff of em available

If you lock in and complete the Padres collection prior to his return, then you won't have to buy his card.

His LS card from last year was a 92 at the time of the suspension. Not saying he comes back into the game that high, but I feel like he will be in that 87-88 category. Then again, he might be a gold. Hard to say really.
-
Only other time an upcoming Transaction affected my LS Collection strategy was also Machado-related. It was 2018 and everyone and their mother knew Manny was getting traded before the deadline, so I held off completing the Orioles until after he got shipped to LA.
-
I'm also hoping Diaz goes to the FA list. Probably wont but hopefull!

Diamonds don't get moved the FA list for injuries

Every single time AFTER you lock in a Diamond.
Every. Single. Time.

Padres are much cheaper than the Cardinals.
I think Manny is the only diamond and is around 35k

Kirby Yates was a diamond for 3 years without throwing a pitch. Tatis will be a high 80s or low 90s.
