This Friday is another Roster Update. Who are you looking at or what are you expecting?
-
Did they ever do a defensive update/downgrade this year like they’ve done in the past?
An extremely minor cherry picked one. Not anywhere near as comprehensive as they have in the past.
-
Anyone know if this is the last regular roster update?
-
Who knows. If it is I will just shake my head over Jordan Walker ending the season as an 81. He is 2 HRs and one stolen base shy of being a 30/20 guy (with 100 RBIs to boot).
Who else is an 81? Cal Raleigh.

-
I would like them to change the way they determine atrributes in the future. So many don't make any sense especially pitchers to me. I know they use certain statcast like data to determine certain stats but it has to be more than that. For an example Ian Happ is considered an elite fielder who has won four straight gold gloves in LF. Yet he is complete garbage in the field in his attributes.
Walker's hitting attributes don't make sense either especially his consistency most of the year and batting average which is tied for 24th righ now.
-
It's nice to see Nolan McClean make it to Gold status, at least!
I had the 20 limit almost all season, expecting him to possibly hit Diamond.
It won't happen this season, so maybe I should just sell the Golds? -
There really is no reason to have more than 20 of one card without being semi selfish but to each their own. They could just release more roster updates

It was for investment purposes. I'm surprised that you didn't know this. We did this to try to make stubs when a card goes Diamond.
This used to be a big deal until we got limited to only 20 of a card. -
@TheGoaler_PSN I mean there is no reason to be investing over 20 cards on one player. I get why people do it. But people like to view it as why the game isn’t fun anymore. Point of the game is to play not having to spend hours flipping and investing all day. It’s just another thing SDS isn’t allowed to get right.

People used to invest way more than 20, lol.
I don't flip much, but i do to help complete collections. If not, I'd have to buy stubs, which i won't. -
@TheGoaler_PSN I get it but holding a 100 plus duplicated of one player is just mind blowing. You can still make stubs on the 20 card limit. But guys were clearing a million stubs every roster update without it which is just crazy.

Here is a bit of an issue with everyone buying hundreds of a player assuming he goes up.
All of a sudden the supply of the 82 overall player poised to be upgraded to diamond drops. There are probably 10s of thousands of copies being hoarded by players (it only takes 100 gamers buying 100 copies)
The card gets updated, everybody quick sells their dupes for a profit removing a ridiculous amount of copies from the market completely.
So not only is the card rarer because it is now a diamond but it is also rarer because 10s of thousands of copies were simultaneously removed from the market when they were quick sold.

TBH this is why I don’t complete collections now I’d rather not spend my time doing this
