    I don’t think investing and flipping to be worth it at all for anything. I just play the game and collect as many cards as possible. I always end up with every card at the end anyways. So many cards are released every week or two that it doesn’t really matter if I have this card or another card. I think people get wrapped up too much on what card a certain steamer says is the best. Also people just get way too obsessed on the overall when a 95 might overall be better at the plate for you.

    I’m the same way. I don’t spend money, grind offline besides the new weekly stuff and don’t invest/flip. I just play online and use the stubs I get.

    That is why I don’t want to mess this up and lock all these stubs away. Probably smarter for me to just stay liquid and try out new cards. I have been locking the programs such as Summer…so I do have that to consider.

    @PAinPA_PSN I just know he won't be my catcher, he will be DH, need that pop time from Pudge.

    I have Mauer at catcher and he's not going anywhere anytime soon.

    Earlier in the year, for sure. Where the power creep is now, debatable.

    VMart is consistently hailed as the best hitter in the game by knowledgeable players (and some say one of the best swings of all time).

    To me, Figgins is a bench player - pinch run, play defense at multiple positions - but hes not a dangerous bat. Same for Nunez. Its a shame that contact guys aren't more valuable in this game - I'd love to use Tony Gwynn types more, but they dont give you much reason to.

    I still have 2 92's that slap.
    Ken Singleton and Cityscapes Ian Happ. I can't take them out! They are switch hitters, and their swings are just too good to replace them with Red Diamonds atm. I haven't even given the 95 Cabrera 1 AB yet!

    That Cityscapes Happ Daddy is phenomenal. He comes off the bench for me with pinch hitter quirk he's money almost everytime.

    @rubicante23_PSN Have been stunned at a few HRs I have hit w Nunez
    There is sneaky power coding baked into him.
    I have him at leadoff.

    @TheGoaler_PSN The Singleton rakes on upper difficulty levels and gets me balls in the gap vs very good opponents.
    I have contact mod on him.

    I'm still using 92 overall POTM Mike Trout, he's a cheat code, I think i have 70 home runs with him now, my Carlos Beltran of 2026
