I was literally 50K away from the 650K Live Series Diamond point in the 1st Inning Program last night. Woke up this morning, locked in three POTM cards and boom! Had my choice of Shane Bieber, Juan Soto, Kirby Yates, and Walker Buehler. Chose Juan Soto and I'm a happy man.
Nice!! You gonna play him or sell him?
Definitely keep. I even locked him in already.
Luckily, I had the common sense to save most of my early-game Stubs for Mike Trout. Then a few nights ago, I pulled my third diamond Live Series so far this season with it being a big one in Jacob deGrom (ironically, who I was saving for next) and the following night pulled my fourth diamond from a single Standard Pack from Conquest in Christian Yelich.
My first two diamonds were Josh Hader and Liam Hendriks, so I knocked the Brewers out despite being a bit worried about Devin Williams getting downgraded; which is something I've been kind of stupid and reckless about this year as I bought Jose Abreu and Matt Chapman in the first week.
But yeah, what I'm getting at is I don't need too many more Live Series cards aside from Acuna, Mookie, Gerrit Cole, and Bellinger before I have Chipper unlocked. I can't wait!
That's awesome man. Hope you get there.
Who do you think is the best live series reliever?

Im at work so I could be missing somthing so please let me know. Here is what I gather.
So because the game has been a complete mess at release sds drops an easy 100k xp. What about the players who have completed the 650k? Does the xp count towards inning 2?
We have had server issues, cards and stubs missing, bugs, glitches, and overall, alot of time wasted on this game without reward as well. We've had the same server maintenance and disconnections as the rest of the player base, we just found time to work around it.
Don't get me wrong I'm glad that people are able to gain back some of the xp they lost, we lost xp too, that's all. If you are going to "make it right" why would you exclude the people who put the most time into your game.
I hope im missing somthing because it almost feels like you are being punished for achieving a goal.
With the 100k xp you will get packs, stubs, rewards, and a live series diamond if you finish..
We get nothing?
Well I guess if you like playing the victim it could be construed as "punished for achieving a goal" but it sounds like a stretch to me

Not playing the victim when I say that the product i paid for has had the same exact issues as everyone else.
Im not trying to be controversial.

I don't think it was a 'bone'. Ii think it was planned all along. Whether we had server issues or not, we would've had those Collections. Collections are always part of a program.
As for the OP staying that people who already hit 650K don't get anything for completing the program: yes you do. You still get the cards.
And if servers were suck a mess; how did you get to 650 K and others didn't? Oh wait, you probably used the XP glitch and sat there for HOURS pitching to an edited team in Play Now Exhibition.
Sorry, but I have NO sympathy for people who rush to get XP done.
If you've played lone enough you know that SDS ALWAYS gives you plenty of content and missions to get to a set place.
Well said and to boot I'm no genius but even a knumbskull nincapoop like me would surmise that 20 thousand cross platform morons glitching xp 24 hours a day isn't helping servers stability so funny that the people that do that complain about rewards and server problems while literally gaining said rewards prematurely and helping cause the problems simultaneously I guess irony truly is immeasurable smh

You get the benefit of a dip in Live series diamonds that will happen because of all those that will get that pack and try and sell causinga slight dip.
Never fails in the forum when something gets added, "what about me, I did that already so what are you going to do for me"
This blows my mind that people just can't be happy for others. This is nothing but a good thing for everyone and I was someone who was just about to 650K XP.

Exactly. It's the ' what about me' crowd.
Last year people wanted BR rewards available to people who couldn't got 12-0. There was talk about coming out with a BR Pack for 1M stubs that would guarantee one of the top 12-0 cards. But people (mainly 12-0 players) were against it because it would devalue BR rewards.
But as soon as SDS came out with the BR Reward Program; everyone is excited.
It still devalues some of the BR cards; but now that EVERYONE can get one (and 12-0 players can technically now get two at a time) it's ok.

Fair enough yall. I can see how my post may come off as disingenuous and I apologize.

There will always be those who make it controversial.

It was absolutely a bone and a way to help out people who have been affected by the outages. 100,000 XP for 6 cards that could be earned strictly by playing a handful of moments.
I don't think the 1st inning 48 collection gave that much and it required buying a bunch of semi-expensive cards.

I have no gripes. I was able to play a lot during the first weekend, and during the day, so I did make it to 650k before the "bonus". I feel badly for the folks that had to suffer through the evening hour outages.
P.S. That said, I certainly wouldn't thumb my nose at a LS Trout for free.

I’ve been maxed XP for almost a week now and I’m thrilled they released something to help people out who had issues with the servers. I’m lucky, I have older kids and a wife that doesn’t mind my gaming addiction. However, I’m getting a little sick of people automatically assuming everyone who got it done early did so via a “cheat.” I played my [censored] off and never would’ve thought to gimmick something. You can easily tell who used the XP farm (if that’s what you want to call it). Look at their profile online and you’ll see a ton of hours under Play Now. So sick of generalizations. Do a little home work before you blatantly accuse people of things. I could just as easily complain that a bunch of people just got some rewards they never would’ve gotten even with zero server/game issues, but who cares. In the end it’s all just a game with a bunch of digital stuff that’s worthless in the real world (unless we can figure out a way to make them NFT).
Sorry, I’ll get off my soapbox now and go back to having fun with some new cards. Again, very happy everyone got what they wanted And we can all move on.

I was playing a game today to get a 42 reward card and earned a ton of xp and was thinking it would be great if it counted toward the second inning, but it won’t. It hasn’t in previous years either.
It ls something they should do. Once you reach the end of the program to have the xp count toward the next

No cause there would be players that would use the glitches and have 650k XP stored up for the moment the next program starts

I don't care about the boost, but if they get the server issues resolved I don't want to see any XP boosts that are blatantly given for people to catch up. Max progress in an inning program wasn't meant for the casual player and it never has been. Anything after the boss is filler. If you get there early, don't expect anything else, if you don't get there, you aren't supposed to. I understand it's a problem because of servers but this not enough XP nonsense needs to stop after the servers are fixed. And @x814xMafia_PSN, why do you assume that everyone that got to 650k last week used the XP glitch? They can just play at times that aren't 7-8:30 am Eastern and 8:30 to 10:30 PM eastern. During the day the game has worked fine for most people with half decent internet connection
