How much of a grind is Acuna?

If you want to spend no money, the HR Derby stats are the hardest right now, because you do need to buy them.. on my secondary account, I bought the 4 cheaper ones (still 18k each right now), put all 4 at the top of the lineup, and just played away at coors field for a half inning at a time (quitting and restarting) until I got the stats I needed, then I sold them for a small profit. If you do it that way, Acuna is totally free with just grinding the Free AS Cards and moments
ryne sandberg and fielder both count from collecting the affinitys

It’s not bad if you have most of TA3 completed, and hopefully you have some HRD cards to use in your mission stat grind
-
As I said previously, you can get 4 to use for free. Joc (if you picked him as henchman), Sanberg (15 card collection), Fielder (all 30 card collection) and whoever you get in the free pack on rewards path. HRD missions don't take more than a few games by having half of your lineup HRD cards.

If you didn’t buy HRD packs like me, the grind will be long with only one card that they give you early in the program
Yeah, seems like it could take a while if you didn't spend stubs on HRD and All Star packs. I currently don't have any at all.
I bought one of each hoping to get one of the top tier; pulled Mets 1B (name slipping rn) and sold him right away; turned in a 60k profit. Working on getting Trout to complete LS, then I’ll be able to (finally) focus on other stuff.

I want that Pete Alonso HRD card SO BAD, but I cannot bring myself to spend that much on a 1B when I already have Ortiz and Prince Fielder at 99.
Someone...please...tell me I am being rational here.
You are. I had no intention of getting Alonso, Vladdy and Ohtani but pulled Alonso and Vladdy yesterday so will probably fork out the stubs for Ohtani just for the heck of it.
[censored] pulled both?

I bought 3 AS packs right when they released them. Pulled rare Vlad/Freddy first pack. Didn't buy any HRD packs but pulled rare Alonso/Mancini in the one free HRD pack in the rewards path. Stupid luck. Honestly, down the road I think the prices of Peralta and Mancini go up more than Vlad and Alonso solely based on I'm certain there are far less of them circulating with most people choosing Vlad and Alonso.

Uhh...you need some of them for the Ohtani collection though?
Sure, but you dot need them for Acuna. If you grabed Joc and collected the 15-30 for Sandberg and Prince yes they can be used as well, but if you starting from scratch, i'd just buy the cheap ones for the sell now prince, get the missions done, then sell them for a small profit.

Yea but doesn't matter. Game is playing like [censored]. Feels like legend speed on all star. I'll try again later but quit for now. Gotta love the server errors. Means game is going to play like garbage. Maybe with all this Xbox money, they can purchase some real servers that don't have rodents powering them.

Today I started
TA3 NL were all at 55%
Acuna was at 62 pts
Took me about 3 hours from there

It’s not bad at all. Some of the moments are lame, but the stats aren’t hard to get. I’m slow on getting the 30 TA cards though because I’m not wasting stubs doing exchanges for them
