Who is NOT Grinding for Griffey?
-
Stopped at Foxx. He fits perfectly in my Old Guys theme team. I am an offline only old curmudgeon and I didn’t bother with DD for the first half of the season (burned out from doing and collecting everything in ‘21) so I am short on a couple collections. I likely won’t get Kershaw or Jr but I have everything else that I want anyway. DD sucked me in again this year in the end with all the content! LOL.

I dig it. I have an old guy theme team too, who is on yours?

Was pleasantly surprised how easy this collection was. No additional grinding necessary…just stay on top on the new cards as they are released (especially the BR silvers and golds).

Exactly. I skipped the Finest and Griffey and Foxx were mine hahaha evil laugh
-
I’d need millions in Stubbs still just to get to Kershaw. Think I’ll play the 96 if I want Griffey on my team
-
C'mon, it's Griffey Jr braw! He's already in my NMS lineup.

Mantle, Mays, Musial OF
Honus, Banks, Jackie, Gehrig IF
Foxx at CAaron, Snider, Clemente, Mathews, and Torre on the bench.
SP Feller, Newhouser, Johnson, Young and Grove
RP Plesac, Eck, smoltz, Henke, Fingers, Hoffman, Franco, Rivera.Hard to get really old on the RP LoL. I’ll sometimes sub in Brooks Robinson but I have a hard time hitting with him. Ruth will take someone out when I buy him back. And Johnny Bench will take out Torre. You? Sorry I know this is OT.
-
Me.... because I already have him.

Nice, yeah I just got Ruth but I don't want to take Musial out because I'm a Cards fan and he destroys the baseball how am I gonna leave Ruth on the bench you know.
Mine:
- Robinson 2B
- Mays LF
- Gehrig 1B
- Mantle CF
- Ruth RF
- Bench C
- Matthews 3B
- Banks SS
Bench C-Foxx, IF- Wagner and Morgan, OF- Musial and Aaron
SP- pretty much the same as yours haha. I have Bob Gibson in there and sometimes Tom Seaver but the ones you listed are all awesome.
RP- The same, yeah Rollie is probably the ultimate "old timer"
Back to Griffey, I got to claim him first day but haven't used him much.
-
Is Griffey worth it? Maybe. But in my opinion the grind is what makes it fun and keeps me motivated to play. Case in point, non of those equipment collections are worth the rewards. I just like completing collections regardless.
-
Much like Mookie and Kershaw I am in no real rush. I’m not a youtuber who needs to do the first debut video, I’m not a god squad creator and I don’t buy stubs. If I get him just as MLB 22 drops, cool. I took a month off the game so I’m behind in a sense so I’m not sweating it. I’ve got 6 of the 16 vouchers as it stands.

Thankfully I had enough cards to get griffey right away with no extra grinding required.
I was missing 1 card (all star, post season or prime, can't recall off hand). I think I'm 314 at p2
