FotF cards are overpriced right now due to the wonky market. But if you play March to October you can get free cards. I am a huge fan of FotF Matt Olson. Also, FotF Yoan Moncada, Buxton, and Tatis are all excellent as well.
I’m not sure what LS Acuna and Marte are selling at these days, but if they’re in the 10K range then they’re bargains.
I would do all the Conquest maps to get a ton of free cards. Some of the recent maps have packs with guaranteed diamonds.
Also, if you finish the A’s LS (which shouldn’t be tooo terribly expensive) you’ll get Sean Doolittle as a reward, which is one of my favorite lefty relievers. The Eckersley evolution moments are easy and he’s a very solid righty.
EDIT: go Sox!
I figured you would have mentioned FOTF Moncada. His silver hits missiles in showdown, and I’ve heard tons of good things about his FOTF card, although I haven’t gotten/used it yet.

awesome responses guys thank you. Yea i love the moncada card and am working on Beli now but will be working on Robinson and Didi soon after the responses i got
-
and your spot on about Doolittle, A's collection was the third one I did. That Blake T card is good to and free.
-
All the players of the month cards are budget beast.
-
What does your team look like now? It can really help us give specific suggestions!

I think you'd benefit from Jackie Robinson, Didi, and Bellinger (play him in Outfield), get Paxton from the monthly program. For a relativly quick corner outfielder with speed and contact - not really power - Griffey Sr. from the father's Day program. -

I Almost have Belli and only need 5 more stars for Griffey Sr. Def gonna work on Didi next I think

Didi will change your expectations for a SS. Amazing card.

You got that right. I slid him over to 3rd when I got Rollins. J-Roll needs to know his offense is going to be held under a microscope lol

The consensus I've seen about Cal (and any cal card) is that his swing isn't good. Looks good on paper but under-performs from swing animation and mechanics.

Just broke my heart man lol. Well hopefully my favorite player of all time, Big Hurt, gets a good card soon

I'm of an age where cal was a MLB god when I was a kid, so I feel you pain.

If you’re ballin on a budget, I’ve had success with Anthony Santandar, Chris Davis, Khris Davis, Brandon Lowe and LS Edwin Encarnacion but that’s was back in April idk with all the cards out now might be hard to hit against FotF Palmer or something.

Thanks for the reply man. I like Edwin and he’s on my Sox now which is a plus. I’m gonna try both Davis’s
