@olivegarden2. 'Without knowing your team or budget, it's hard to give specific player advice.'
Right now I am running mostly Golds and Silvers, with 2 Diamond starting Pitchers. And I have close to 160K (could have more if I use this last $75 in PSN cards).
SP:
BO Glavin
AS Smoltz
LS Kluber, Bieber, and Syndergard (will replace these 3 eventually with Diamonds; but going to attempt their 40 IP TA stats first; then with LS Snell, Bauer, and whomever I get from the Dodgers).BP:
LS Kimbrel, Smith, Anderson, Hand, And Pagan. Plus fillers for TA InningsLineup: (No particular order and all LS)
1B: Abreu, Muncy, Bell, Goldschmidt, and Rizzo
2B: Albies (eventually going to replace with his FOTF)
3B: Escobar, Turner, Devers (going to replace with BO Mathews)
SS: Turner Tatis, Mondesi, Anderson (thinking of replacing with Vizquel until I can get Larkin)
LF: This is a quandary. Right now LS Martinez, Gallo, Stanton, Soto. (may replace with AS Granderson
CF: Starling Matte (may replace with Ketel or Acuna)
RF: Kepler (may replace with LS Judge or Dawson)
Cap but also have Sanchez for TA homeruns and may replace with Posada/Awards Posey)Only POTMs I would constantly use could be Didi and Correa.
Maybe looking at picking up three of the following for SP: Proapect Whitley, LS Strasburg, LS Buehler or Kershaw (Dodgers IP for TA), Prospect Manning, ans LS Morton (Rays IP if I dont want to iae LS Snell).
Also would look at possibly LS Chapman, PS Foulke BO Gagne, and Sig Series Franco for my pen.

I second getting CarGo. I have Mantle, and that CarGo is still in my outfield playing over Trout and Yelich.

Well you cant use your cap in Br or events , so no point in having one if your too scared to play seaasons...

After taking a few years off, and with it being on sale,I decided to pick up the game today.
I also grabbed some stubs since I had the money and am a few months behind.
I've already fielded what I think will be a competitive team for the current Event and will start playing that Monday.
But are there any LS, or other brands, of Diamond players I should target?
Not sure if I'm going to go after yhe LS Collection; since Trout is up to 350K, as I can't see paying that much for ONE card.
But what about any of the other LS Diamonds?
Are any of the other 90+ ones worth the cost (I'm looking for someone to hold there spot until I can either replace them with one of the FS players from the second Stage of TAs, so they'll probably stay in my lineup for a few months.
Also, if it matters, the ONLY H2H I'll play is if there is a competitive/even Event and maybe a few BR games here and there. I wont be touching Ranked until they either fix whats wrong or if I NEED to play that mode.
Sorry for your loss.

The game plays the same in every game mode not just ranked seasons....the whole point of the game is to play br and events to make your team better for ranked seasons, not to pout about playing it. Might want to stick to pokemon Go

Maybe that's the endgame result for you. I don't care about a video game record. I play to have fun.
Playing a 9 inn where, more than likely, you'll match up with someone who will either play like a complete tool or will quit when things don't go their way; is not my idea of fun.
But thats the good thing about video games; there's not one definite way to enjoy them.

Why do you think it’s bs,? Didnt you say haven’t played ranked season this year yet? So you just go by everything other people say and don’t try and find out for yourself? Sorry I love playing ranked season, never have had any problems, been playing for years. Wouldn’t buy the game without it

If you're playing "Event" you will have to have quite a bit of diversity. The roster requirements change each time.

Your first free choice pack pulls need to be 99 kluber (no competition) , evo cargo many high level players still use him (Matthews is decent at first but quickly becomes just at pinch hitter, eck is serviceable in a low level pen, avoid Rodriguez till last), Sanchez or Mondesi (pick for me was whether or not your picking posey or Sandburg), Sandburg would me my first pick now if I had a redo, but posey and reggie are both good, just falls on what you need more.

1B: Abreu, Muncy, Bell, Goldschmidt, and Rizzo
2B: Albies (eventually going to replace with his FOTF)
3B: Escobar, Turner, Devers (going to replace with BO Mathews)
SS: Turner Tatis, Mondesi, Anderson (thinking of replacing with Vizquel until I can get Larkin)
LF: This is a quandary. Right now LS Martinez, Gallo, Stanton, Soto. (may replace with AS Granderson
CF: Starling Matte (may replace with Ketel or Acuna)
RF: Kepler (may replace with LS Judge or Dawson)
Cap but also have Sanchez for TA homeruns and may replace with Posada/Awards Posey)Only POTMs I would constantly use could be Didi and Correa.
Maybe looking at picking up three of the following for SP: Proapect Whitley, LS Strasburg, LS Buehler or Kershaw (Dodgers IP for TA), Prospect Manning, ans LS Morton (Rays IP if I dont want to iae LS Snell).
Also would look at possibly LS Chapman, PS Foulke BO Gagne, and Sig Series Franco for my pen.
SS Franco is good against me. Foulke is easy to attain. You just have to make pennant race or buy him for quick sell value. Those are my recommendations for the pen.
-
Carlos Gonzalez is a good player as has been mentioned previousl;y. I hit WAY better with Revolution Eddie Mathews and he can play 3B or LF. Both are free just depends on when you pick them to complete their missions. Good Luck
-
Ketel Marte is a must, he seems to play way above his attributes. I'm tempted to plug him in at SS, Hanley just isn't doing it for me. At 10k Marte is a steal.
