it's not really. there are so many free agent catchers that they're still dirt cheap.
Yeah, I'm not worried about the 99 catchers as much as I was about the 3rd basemen with fielding better than 70 to get Brooks Robinson.
Although I do regret eating so many so I could max out my CAP...but with the way things are, I'll be able to keep my CAP in my rotation. Yippee.

I hadn't booted my game up yet when I posted that so I hadn't realized that I already have like 70 catchers in my collection.

Are you sure you have to login from your PS4 to claim them? Maybe you can just grab them from TSN?
I think they show up in the time limited mission screen, so I think you have to log in ps4.
This Mauer looks to be a bit of a grind, but at least we don't have to manifest destiny it.
Whoa, my Chris Sale sold at 175k, and that was a "I'm not ready to sell you yet but if someone wants you at this price, take it" kind of price tag.....now I'm kind of worried I could have had more. Hmmmmm.
Got 300k at least now, and still haven't sold Kiner+other spare golds. No idea what to do with it lol

why did the price for hardware dawson spike?

People are buying half price stubs and bought all the "lower" priced buy nows?

oh yeah, that makes sense. i just realized everything spiked.
wait, so the prices for buying stubs got cut in half too? since challenge rewards and stuff like that don't give double, that seems kind of shitty. it means people who spend actual money on stubs are going to see an increased advantage.

How is it something funny?
People are buying double the stubs and the supply of diamonds on sale has gone down
Seager is also almost at 100k

okay now i'm thinking this was just a brilliant move to emphasize microtransactions while giving the other people reason to believe they're getting double of something. double stubs doesn't even mean anything when you realize that everything you spend stubs on is in the market, which means prices will just go up to reflect the new earn rates. and since you aren't getting double for challenge rewards, the gain you'll see on stubs in the first place is tiny compared to people who buy stubs with real money.
the support for this game is great, so i'm not even going to cpmplain. it seems pretty smart.

I'm 4-1 in the new season. Havnt played in awhile though because all hell broke loose in my house. Pipe broke, flooded basement and took out the HVAC system. Living in a hotel right now.
@.@
Sorry to hear about that!
Wow.
I was going to get Mauer before diving into the season.

The market needs to crash again
Yeah this is nuts, sold Kiner for 77 and he's going for 80 now.
So many prices are nuts. If I had held onto Molina and Sale a day or two longer I'd probably have made 20-30k more.
Well now I have 383k sitting around. I guess I'll just save it until a new set of guys come out because Brooks Robinson is pretty damn good and I'm mostly happy with what I got. And I'm not paying 300k for Luis Tiant.

Why not, how much longer are you going to play?
TBH as long as they keep seasons coming out, I'll probably keep playing just to hit WS
This was my list from last page of the 99s that I'm guessing they'll still release, players who might be sexy to go after:
We already know Seaver, Mauer, Schmidt are out/coming out. Still got hardware and postseason programs. My guess is:
Hardware: 1970 Johnny Bench, 1986 Mike Scott
Postseason: 1977 Reggie Jackson, 1989 Orel Hershiser
Passed out early. Just got up, decided to open my free pack since I go on vacation until Tuesday.
What a fucking great feeling it was to see that diamond border peeking out....except it was Britton lol
Free 30k!!!
Anybody want to do me a huge favor and log in for me on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, so I get my packs and login card while I'm gone? Lol

I would but I won't be reliable in my situation. I did get in some games and I'm now 6-1 and I'm at 812. Best start to a season yet.
Nice!
I'm going to get Mauer in a hurry when I get back and then try to blast through RS.
I think Jonsson might have me taken care of Saturday/Sunday morning but not Tuesday/Monday. Either way it's no biggie any help is appreciated. Pulling a Britton in early morning tricked me into thinking I can get a Trout lol
These new packs....zzzzzz. Skipping out on these.

Yea, there is a Harper program and you need to collect 100 minor league stadiums, they were selling for 150ish stubs
Also need to collect 1st overall picks and prospects, several commons, bronzes and silvers going for 500+ stubs........
I bought a lot of packs and got nadda lol
And before you freak out that there is a Harper program, it's an 84 Harper which you need to unlock the 96 Moncada program

848 here. About to play a game.
Anyone faced a Mike Schmidt yet? I like Brooks Robinson but I'm thinking about trying a lineup where all my players are a threat to steal (Even though I won't)

I wonder if there's DD co-op? If so, that'd be pretty freaking awesome, honestly

Must get Baller packs.....
If they put a limit on it, I would have bought packs. But at 15k a pack, shit too risky lol
Don't want to jinx it, but Bob Feller is my most untouchable pitcher? I can't explain
Yeah I jinxed it
was doing hot. 5-0. headed to 6-0 in my last game, up 5-1 in the 8th
until he scored 2 in the 8th...2 in the 9th...and then beat me in extras. FU Jansen and Rivero. Worthless.
fuck lol

This is the latest into the season I've played, is this about the time most people bail to Madden? SDS needs to load up the ticket store, I have 39k
I'm guessing they'll start putting 12-0 and 12-1 rewards in the ticket store after real baseball is over....or the 2 special cards in each pack set. I think they already said no LS players will be in the store this year.
Oh shit, I got a 20 pack in one of them!
So that's like...35 packs in total.

Just pulled LS Mookie Betts from one of the Bases Loaded packs. Earlier this week, I pulled LS Carlos Correa from a standard pack.
Definitely Madden time.
And last night, I got my first 12-win Battle Royale (not undefeated, I lost game #3) and got 2006 HS 94 Ryan Howard.
