I know it's very late in the cycle, but I'd still like to see a "Live Series" captain. We had one of those in the past (Castillo maybe?) and I used that boost a lot.

I got a C minus.

Mine looks mostly right with a few exceptions. Most games played was Dansby Swanson? That doesn't look right. I'll have to check a few of these when I get back to my console. Second is Corbin Carroll, which seems right.

I've completed every program except the "Starter" program, which doesn't look right.

I wish the content they had queued up was better than captains, which are 6 months too late.

Speaking of captains, as a last gasp I hope they give us a live series captain...

@Dolenz_PSN said in 2024 API Wishlist:

I honestly think the inventory data is of somewhat limited use since we have no API data for programs or collections where being able to quickly view your inventory would be of the most use.

True. I'll mainly use it at the beginning of the season to see where I'm at with the LS collection, and match it against the market data to see how many millions of stubs I'm short by...

@Blind_Bleeder_PSN said in 2024 API Wishlist:

A user inventory API would be very helpful. A field for where the card originated (which program, pack, etc.), if they are going to reissue the Incognito cards, include the players name in the API.

These are all things Showzone has worked into their database, but it would be nice to have it come from an API.

So... Yes, this thread is very old (sorry @pat_sds_mlbts ), but I figured out a way to pull my entire card inventory (all 146 pages of it) using Power Automate and the API. It's a little clunky, but it works. I'll be happy to post a walkthrough if anyone is interested. Plus, now I know that I have 26 Andrew Chafin cards. Useful.

I haven't had any issues getting the other API data that doesn't require a login. I use Power Query within Excel to loop through all the pages and pull the data. It's pretty clean and fast, plus... I mean... Excel is the best tool created by humankind.

I know that @dolenz_mlbts has put together some really cool reports, but not sure if those can access a player's individual inventory.

@SchnauzerFace_MLBTS said in How can we get our guys back SDS????:

And four [censored] Allen cards all on the Phillies.

Maybe if you'd tone down your expletive-laden posts, SDS would take you seriously

@DrBear100_PSN said in How can we get our guys back SDS????:

what's the point of 125 stats

They should start a 1,000 point system. I'm all for that.

But then, a year later, they'd go to 1,250. So... never mind.

@Teak2112_MLBTS said in How can we get our guys back SDS????:

Where was a Royals Beltran card?

Or a "2004 Postseason Astros" card for that matter. Actually, that card might be the best card ever. Probably too "overpowered"...

@Dolenz_PSN said in Tucker to the Dodgers:

He is a very good and consistent player but I am not sure he is that good.

Exactly. I'm sure my Pirates will get the same level of production from Brandon Lowe

I think the Dodgers LS collection on day 1 will exceed the 5 million stub limit.

Their collection reward should be new legend Sandy Koufax (99 of course).

I'd pay $1,000 for a special edition with Joe Buck and Jim Brockmire.

Yes, yes, yes. Way too early. But I'm bored.

So... which team out of the gate in 2026 will be the cheapest to acquire? I know, I know... us "no money spent" people typically wait until prices settle down. But... on day one... which team will be the cheapest?

Now that rosters are filling out, with the exception of a few "high profile" guys left (Tucker, Bellinger, etc.), I think we can make a few guesses. And, unlike in many, many previous years, the Pirates aren't even at the top of the list due to Skenes.

1. Cardinals - could it be? Could they really be the cheapest? I'm guessing they unload Donovan for more prospects. I'm sure @dolenz_mlbts will weigh in here.

2. Rockies - I mean... it's the Rockies.

3. White Sox - I'm curious to see where Murakami starts out, but no higher than a Silver, right @savefarris_mlbts ?

4. Marlins - I was disappointed they traded Cabrera, so their price will be pretty low.

The A's used to be on this list, but they have some decent young players to start the year. Thoughts?

The Cardinals totals

Stupid Stan the Man...

Here we are in January, the "shoulder season" between the end of MLBTS 25 and the beginning of MLBTS 26. Since November, I've focused my DD time using an all-Diamondbacks team. After getting the #1 Fan icon, here's where that team is at PxP-wise:

P5:
Corbin Carroll - Finest
Corbin Carroll - 2025 All-Star
Corbin Carroll - Spotlight
Corbin Carroll - Live
(so... all the Corbins. The "Finest" card was BY FAR the worst statistically for me. Weird.)
Ketel Marte - 2025 All-Star
Ketel Marte - Spooky (I'm at P4 with LS Marte and will get him to P5 before MLB26)
Luis Gonzales - Spooky
Steve Finley - Moonshot
Geraldo Perdomo - Neon
Gabriel Moreno - Spotlight (as with Finest Carroll - I was terrible with this card)
Paul Goldschmidt - retro Finest (this card was a beast, online and off)
Eugenio Suarez - 2025 All-Star
Jordan Lawler - Pipeline
Justin Martinez - Jolt
Zac Gallen - Live
Ryne Nelson - Live
Brandon Pfaadt - Live
Ryan Thompson - Live
Bryce Jarvis - Live

Anyway - how many of you have a "#1 Fan" Icon? I think @savefarris_psn has one, also for the Diamondbacks. I'm not even close to any other teams.

@Talkingben9558_XBL said in I think I ruined a kid's day:

As for the streamers, theres more where that came from:

First, it was nice to see someone so smug go down.

Second, it looks like you really like the low, outside pitch, and he just kept going there. His fault.

Nice!

@Talkingben9558_XBL said in I think I ruined a kid's day:

Insane matchmaking right there.

LOL - would that game have been on "Legend"? I can't imagine loading into a game with a "0" rating and matching against you. To be fair, after watching you beat up on that YouTube streamer, I wouldn't want to match up with you period.

@ThaGhettoBlasta_PSN said in New DQ Map bug - 12-20-2025:

Aren't you the guy that bought the xbox and waited to see how long it took the wife to notice?

LOL - 100%

She finally noticed, but I gaslighted her by saying "I painted my PS5 black".

@SaveFarris_PSN said in Eli Willits '25 Draft Card:

I'm bordering on the 5M limit

Have you collected EVERYTHING yet?

For the last week or so, I get the "You have been Disconnected" every "first" game I play. It happens after an inning or two. It's happened in CQ, Mini-Seasons and in the online Event.

After that, things seem fine. Then, when I log in again, same thing.

Is this happening to anyone else?

@x814xmafia_MLBTS said in Well that sucks.:

Nope. No guarantee. Just pulled 5 LS Diamonds.

I'm sure it was 2 Ohtani's, 2 Judge's and a Bobby Witt.
