Still friended for 99 degrom, the best all star relievers. Teams stacked (to my standards) games dead tho. I IMO good luck having anyone released from here on out to replace these guys lol 23-19 record. It won’t make a difference what cards you have in your lineup

23-19 record. It won’t make a difference what cards you have in your lineup
my "record" is 40-27.. i played one season.. and you do realize you don't HAVE to play ranked seasons right? Battle Royale / Events don't show up so your record isn't an accurate representation of how good you are.

I’ve actually had a couple drop balls at 1st base with Big papi defense over there . I must be the only one that can't hit a beachball with Ortiz. I have him P5 and I was hitting like .200 with him but force myself to use him to finish the parallel.

nope. i was hitting .098 at one point with him. i think he might be like .120 or something now but i switched to Thome because i couldnt take it anymore.
That's crazy they put them in a program so quickly... i know the people who went all in for ohtani are pissed right now
@bhall09_psn said in 99 Acuna added:
So, the prize is a 99 of a guy that didn't play in the All-Star game (maybe they're doing this because there will be no way to pump out another maxed out Acuna now that he's hurt) instead of a guy that's synonymous with the All-Star game in Hank Aaron. It's a 99, could have been a 99 of the guy who has been selected an All-Star the most times.
hank aaron will be the big collection towards the end. if you aren't stocking up on all the legends/flashbacks etc. that are going for quicksell you might want to start... or at least get 1 of each

yeah i did the same. but i also knew there was a chance they DIDN'T put the packs in this program which would have caused them to shoot up in price.. it was really a coin flip

It's undoubtedly also DDA code that is just very poorly written. C'mon guys, it's embarrassing to frustrate the fan-base with such amateurish code.

its not though.. who actually buys stubs? when its so easy to get them
at work. im up to 800k with another 200k just spent in investments.. i had completed chipper + Mo and then all of a sudden I pulled Trout, Acuna, and Degrom in the same week from free packs.. so its nice having a stack of stubs with nothing to spend it on at the moment, hopefully i can increase it so that im ready for next collections..
edit: i just realized u meant xp... nice lol. think i made i to like 25k xp last night in a couple hours.
has anyone had increased issues of choppy pinpoint pitching on xbox since like last friday? i cant throw a perfect pitch to save my life and sliders are constantly hanging now because of it. this is with an elite series controller too (im aware of the issue with regular xbox one controllers) I had no issues at all with pinpoint until sometime last week / early weekend.
@vipersneak_mlbts said in What card would you pay $5 mil for:
People are paying MUCH more than that for guys like Otani and Betts.
sucks for them if they are... i paid less than 300k for Ohtani when he came out. all the cards went up after they were out of packs and I didn't need alonso, vladdy, or peralta to complete it.
betts i just waited for potm to drop and had to buy like 4 signature cards for a total of about another 200k.. everything else was obtained by playing the last few months or buying the cards when they were dirt cheap around the all-start game / TA3 release
can someone post what the program usually entails for us xbox guys
bump bump bump. im curious as well

Probably not why you think tho. He will be a good 2B and great bench! But along the way to mookie you also have to have/get lots of really good cards that you have to have for him which means you will also get those cards on your team. You will need Ohtani and if you don’t already have him then when you get him you will have him and mookie. But if you were to say just lock in stubs then no because you don’t get the cards along the way. Thoughts? I completely agree...the last few days I have heard so many comments about how many millions of stubs Mookie costs and it just isn't true. All the cards required to get Mookie costs the stubs and because you have those, you get Mookie. If you truly are spending millions of stubs just for Mookie, then you are doing it wrong. It definitely doesn't make sense to spend all the stubs for one card...but to spend them for the entire package is a completely different story. People say you will never use all those cards...but if you play events consistently, you will definitely start using cards you never thought you would have. So mookie doesn’t cost the stubs because all the cards you need to get mookie cost the stubs? I’ve heard it all. Just stop. All the cards you need for Mookie will also be needed for the next collection and then some. There's a good chance there will be one more after that, and all the cards you'll need for the next one, will also be needed for the final one. Now if you don't want Aaron, Mantle, Trout, or whoever the final collect is, then yeah, you don't need to collect for Mookie. If, however, you do want the final collect, you'll have Mookie and whoever else is in the collect path. So you can say he’s worth it. Not that he doesn’t cost stubs. He costs at least 2 million stubs. And that mookie is what they are rewarding you with for locking those stubs in.

I don't have him yet as I'm waiting to do the POTM and then ill have him... and this week i spent 60k stubs on two 'signature' cards I needed and I'm skipping the 'milestone' collection because i needed 5 of those... everything else I already had just by playing the game and/or buying cards when they were extremely cheap because of all the packs that TA3 gave and the flash sales that made headliners extremely cheap previously.. we knew there was going to be another collection at some point with increased requirements. If I had to guess, in total I might have spent 300-500k.. but since spending that over a couple weeks, I made that back easy with investments / playing the game.
It boggles my mind when people are like "L! this card costs like 3 mil stubs" yeah it would cost that much now if you haven't played at all this year and are starting from close to nothing
