Just sold. Thanks for the help everyone! I'm gonna buy that Chris Sale I've wanted for weeks today hopefully!
Just remember any card in your binder that you are not using is losing value each day.
High value cards that you are not using should be sold unless you need them for a collection. And even then you could sell the card and buy cheaper cards for said collection.At this point we are big game hunting and looking for 99's to replace other 99's based on personal preference/personal performance.

Not completely true. Previous inning bosses will keep going up in value (Walker, I'm looking at you). Headliner cards will keep going up, until a flash sale temporarily tanks their prices. Any card you can no l longer get goes up in price.

The value of this pack was $40K at the shop. Compare that to HRD at $20K when released. Point here is there aren't releasing this for "free" and they haven't released an Elite Tier Ducks in a Conquest either.
Also agree there won't be an Elite tier as the 99s are Elite. I'd expect a bounce back after pack goes away and his price to settle close to $100K. Over time, value will just come down to how frequent they pulse these packs and flash sales.

just don't sell sale util there is a stub sale for sell.
I kept my Robert, but not because of the stub game, I just enjoy him far too much to get rid of him.
Makes sense. I want Chris Sale first lol. He should probably come back out soon

OG2 why did you want to sell him? He didn't work for you?

He wasn’t worth the price and I want my role model Chris sale lol

I had him, finally opened my prestige 25 card - and took Ramirez ... Don't think he'll be out of the line up anytime soon.. 2 games.. 3HR's and a triple... small sample size, but Hornsby was good but not GREAT..
-
Planning to grab Ramirez as well (24 level Prestige). Thames and Springer are likely "better" but I've been rotating guys thru 2B Ramirez just fits the squad better right now. Great to hear he's doing well for you!!

I like Thames, but he's on my bench. His swing is so fast, I am early on everything if I don't vocally remind myself to wait on every swing. Gratz on almost reaching prestige 25, that's not easy.

Yeah i'm at prestige 30 .. so I've sat on the pack for sooo long.. Thames is prob the better choice, but with Ruth, Musial, and Thomas coming, it didn't make sense.. And the outfield is just loaded with Trout, Mantle, walker/Harper.. I'm trying to fit in Gwynn though.. since i'm hitting under .240 with Trout.
-
I very much doubt there is a free beach ball pack today. I doubt there is even a ducks pack but that would be the big pack they put in the shark map if they do.

I picked Ramirez first and he is such a beast. I used to play him at 1B, then Thames took over and moved Ramirez to left field.
-
don't forget, that we'll likely be seeing a 99 Sig Joe Morgan soon too (guessing as a Boss). No way Hornsby will play over Joe. Also, Jackie Robinson is free at 2b. Doesn't have Hornsby's power for sure, but he does everything else better...and he's free.

Nice!!!! Are you left handed?

dude at this point if you like being raped, sell. if youre a man who has pride, hold- these packs are going away and hornsby is gonna hit a much higher price, he's best 2b in game, his defense may be low but hes still better than most, use common sense- if youre new to the game sell, if youre not hold and reap the rewards.

I was the same way my man. Couldn't win over veteran before this year.......but has no issue completing Jackie.....and shockingly......I was able to complete Ruth, even though a rarely ever played AS and NEVER on Hall of Fame. Just takes patience and waiting for your pitches (and using a lot of speed guys who can bunt and steal.

There are 7 different diamond packs today. HRD 1 and 2, Prospect 1 2 3, Semi final, quarterfinal players league would be 7. But, I think they sneak something better in. Last years Shark map was epic, and included SS choice packs.

The SS pack wasn’t still in the store for initial purchase tho, the beach ball pack came out a few days ago. It’s not going to be free today so I wouldn’t be selling Hornsby until the shark map comes out and there is no Beach Ball. This guy just received horrible advice from almost every person lol.

Maybe read the advice I gave him first? I said I didn't sell my Robert, and I also posted that cards that are no longer available except through the market go up in value.
