Yep. Mine will consist of 99 Gossage (at some point), 97 Chapman, 97 Wade Davis, 94 Lee Smith and the new Crochet (White Sox RP). Holy [censored].

Great that he's in the game, but as an offline player, I'm just bummed about this. He'll be going for 850k or more in the market, just like Puljols. I'll never be able to afford such great cards.
At least I can hopefully get cards from previous programs I missed (David Ortiz, etc) when they come out with the 11th inning program.
Start flipping. I make 200,000 stubs per day. So easy.

Agree, but why are you still going that hard this late in the game? I have to imagine if you have been doing this awhile, you will never be able to spend what you already have at this point.

It is fun for me, and I stop when I have every card in the game and I fill as much of those pages of cards as possible. It's like filling up those sticker books I used to get in the 80's.

If all goes to plan i want to add Rivera either when his price comes down or in the 11th inning, Hoffman when i eventually get to him in the Babe Ruth program, that would make my bullpen
Rivera 99
Gossage 99
Gagne 98
Chapman 97
Henke 97
Hoffman 96
And either Fingers 96 or Crochet 96
Not to mention i also have Dibble, Betances, McGee and DavisI don't even care that i don't have the 99 overall Wagner anymore.

Many people have said that 96 Crochet is basically a free version of 99 Wagner anyways.

Man, there's a memory from the past! I used to love those sticker books back in the day. Good one man, thanks for the memory!

Hmm, maybe I play the event. Maybe.
I'll just save myself the time and buy him
Haha I tried one game, remembered I hate dodger stadium and came to the same conclusion.

No worries, he's not gonna be even close to that expensive because he's an event reward. As a matter of fact, if you'd really want him badly I would encourage you to try and get your feet wet with online play. Events are perfect for this since they're free to play and losing games doesn't mean anything.
Had to cancel PS Plus subscription to save money during pandemic. But I appreciate the advice.
There’s a workaround for that, I didn’t pay for mine for a year once. I’ll PM you.

He’ll never get anywhere close to 850k on the market. This is a playable event. There will be gluttonous amount of this card out there. My guess is he’ll top out between 50-80k.

Not so much, Crotchet is hard to control. And his fastball is readable.

Last I checked there were 7 buy orders in for a million so hes not coming down til those fill or people start lowering their orders.

Speaking of his control, his change/curve is definitely super ez to float over the middle of the plate. Just something to look out for, in my limited 1 day experience of throwing him out there. He's still a goon and will be in my pen 100%.

Honestly, Hoffman is pretty terrible in the higher ranks. Idk if you care about that, but once you're facing someone good who won't swing at that circle change trash, he'll get killed.

I don't play online much but thats good to know so thank you. Honestly Hoffman and Wagner are just nostalgia for me and i don't need them in my bullpen.

Agree, Hoffman is who I have as my CP right now and he usually does well until the CPU hitters decide to make him work.
I typically throw a high and inside circle change to get 'em, right on the black near the corner. Works more often than I expected.

You're right that he's an event reward, so there's going to be a lot of him. But at the same time, everyone is going to want him. He's not going to stay at a mil, but I can't see him ever going as low as 80, especially when stubs are so plentiful. I see him going between 150 - 200, but I've been wrong before.

I don’t know bud, he can be had for free and the event is actually playable, unlike the last one. I guess we’ll see. And if that’s the case I might just sell him because of the strength of my bullpen all he would be is just another fireballer that will eventually be unusable due to everyone having him.

I'm going back and forth on getting him or not. I already have 97 Wade Davis, 94 Lee Smith and 97 Chapman in my bull pen and don't want just all flame throwers either. I want a nice mixture of those who are deadly breaking ball relief pitchers and flame throwers.
