I haven’t pulled a Diamond yet.
Got Luis Robert, but that's the only one so far. And I kept him!!

That's kinda like selling the engine in your car to pay for the tires.
To extend the simile, the driver can always buy the engine back later for less money when the price drops during a flash sale, but for now, distance = 0
To piggy back, I can sort of understand him selling Acuna and Vlad Jr because their value always eventually drops but Trouts will stay where it’s at, if not go up at times, until late in the life of the game.

Sold 3 of the hardest pieces of the collection to start on the collection. Solid strategy
Yeah I have to agree never sell them
-
Lmao sorry guys jees. I prob won't be able to play enough to fully complete everything so I figured have a few guys (who are really good obviously) or be able to actually complete some stuff and get some rewards and have a deeper team for when I'm able to play. I will try to get those guys back when their price inevitably drops over time.

I pulled Trout early last year and sold him to finish my NL collection. There are many reasons to sell them, but I would have held onto them. There's about to be an influx of game pass players too.
Pretty much this. I'm a Mets fan so I sold Acuna originally and completed the Mets collection for Gary Carter. - If I had known Trout was gonna be pulled a few hours later I'd have held onto Acuna for the NL side lol

Not sure if there was a thread already but figured I'd share some insane luck I had the last two days. From reward packs just from grinding I pulled Acuna, Trout, and Vlad Jr.
Sold all 3 to get started on the collections lol.
Good luck out there!
I pulled Trout and Vlad Jr and I kept them. 2 of the biggest fish in the AL collection and you just said to your self nope I would rather have the Ray Durham from the white Sox please
The CWS is the only collection I’ve done so far, and that is only because I packed Luis Robert LS.
Don’t knock that Ray Durham card. He is fantastic. Not worth trading all those gatekeepers to grab, but picking up Durham, Hendricks, Grandal, and Robert in one collection is a great move if you are looking at the collections strategically.

I have pulled 0 Diamonds.

That and isn't Trout the best card in the game? Other 2 aren't bad either. Would love to have a lineup with Trout, Acuna and Vlad Jr.

Lol I was wondering where you've been! Good to see you bud.

I pulled Wheeler, Betts, Marte, Harper, and Degrom, Sold them All to Complete Dodger collection and continue on the NL West just need Tatis Jr. I had already bought Betts and Marte when I pulled them. I sold Degrom to get Turner the last card I needed to get Gibson.

All in good fun, my man. Trout is the only annual absolute keeper -- his value will probably go UP in the coming months before it drops.

0 Diamonds pulled...refuse to spend money on 75 packs
-
I pulled Robert (Chase 1 pack), Liam Hendricks, Robbie Ray and Max Muncy. No high diamond yet.

Sadly this is how financially stupid this community is. You think having 700k locked away in collections not being used to flip is FASTER than selling those cards and flipping with all of the stubs put together until your done. It’s not and never will be.

Truth be told, I got super bored Saturday. PUBG partner wasn't on and 21 froze 4 times. Caved in and bought it Sunday. Won't be able to play as much as last year so just playing for entertainment. I don't expect anything to change so expectations are super low.
I played 6 event games Sunday with the worst team in event history and went 1-5. Wasn't pretty. My team struggled to hit the ball out of the infield.

Companion App was clutch yesterday..
Pulled Tatis Jr, out of a 50 pack bundle. sold him
Bought another 50 pack bundle..
Got an extra chase pack thru 1 of the packs.
Pulled Pujols. Sold him.Still sitting on about 70k stubs after buying Freeman, Betts, Muncy, Harper..
Slowly but surely ....

It’s not financial stupidity. Some people, myself included, get absolutely no enjoyment playing the market and flipping cards.

Price won't drop on those 3.

Not great for me yet. I pulled Muncy on opening day and used the stubbies to get anime RJ (I chose mantle with the preorder packs). Then yesterday I pulled Grandal, and I was about to sell him to buy LS Robert, but then I realized I was being a total Smaug with my stubbies so I just bought Robert and kept Grandal. YOLO!!!!! YEAAAAAHBHHHHHHHH!!!!! MAKE IT RAAAAAINNNN!
But after it rained I only have like 9K stubs. Gotta get my grind on so I can overpay for Ketel Marte before he goes gold…
