    Hader is so good. He’s also a ton of fun to use online, he’s struck out the side in 3/3 innings I’ve used him

    The new deGrom card is pretty nasty. Only used it offline thus far but it’s even crazy there.

    Agree with Castellanos and Garcia. I mash with Cruz too. Judge swings a noodle bat for me. Devers and Hernandez are good though lol.

    I pulled 3 Alonso 1 story and 1 sho. I sold 2 Alonso and kept 1. Do I buy cespedes? I do not have time to get 40 moonshot wins.

    If you're ready to complete the collection, yes. If not, wait and he'll come down as more people get him.

    I'm 95% sure they'll release enough all star game cards after tonight's game that you won't need every single card to get Sho... but who knows.

    Also, haven't been watching the game until just now. Anyone looking like a for sure MVP of the game?

    Na hard to say right now. Probably Vlad with a HR and 2 RBI. Xander had 2 hits.

    As long as it's not a pitcher. 2019 was Bieber and his ASG card was useless because he didn't have a great pitch mix. Saw someone on twitter asking for a Salvy just so he gets 3 high diamonds in 30 hours lol

    You mean more ASG cards that aren’t in the TA3?

    My plan was just do as many showdowns as it takes to 100% all TA3 divisions and then work on the HRDs

    Yeah a pack like the HRD pack from last night. Just no clue how many cards. There are 42 right now so they could only have 4 cards but I'd think there's at least 6 between the 3 different tiers.

    I was thinking the cespedes would be the most limited of all the HRD cards because of the 40 wins to get him. But yeah if there are going to be another 9 cards or more released tonight no rush to buy.

    Should’ve held onto those until they went out of packs, prices will go up.

    I’m sure they’ll put them in the 5th inning and monthly challenges like they did with the 42 cards. But in the near future those prices will go up.

    Also the all-star cards dropping tonight are crazy good.

    Prospect cards were over 4K last night how long has that been going?

    Bought all of the all star and home run derby cards. I’m assuming the card’s price will only go up after these packs are no longer available? If not, FML.

    Went with Peralta over Vladdy Jr, because of Big Papi. It was going for like 162k stubs while the Vladdy card was going for 170k stubs. Last night anyway.

    Pulled 2 rare, 1 mid, and 2 low. Took Vlad and Peralta and immediately sold each for 179k each, net of 161k. I need a few days to finish TA3 so hoping they come down while I do that.

    Pulled 2 rare rounds on the HRD so of course for the ASG I went 4 base and 1 mid round. Need one of Xander, Peralta, or Yoenis to get Ohtani

    From what I have gathered, Pitching Rebel is considered the top guy in the game but man his videos are terrible. He's just a dork lol.

    When they release all these cards, half the time I don’t even know what the best plan is.

    What’s everyone doing? I posted before but my thought was do all TA3s, then see what else I need after that. Tempted to sell off all my current starters for stubs while I can knowing most of them are getting replaced lol

    Looking now. All high diamonds are almost half price now. Problem is I don't know if there is going to be a market for them moving forward. If I come across something I will post.

    Yea thats my concern. Like LS collection is pointless now so no need to get all of those LS high diamonds and Trout. Maaaaaybe they go back up if they come with a Hank collection that requires Chipper?

    That’s true. I guess by the time I’m done with TA3 I’ll see how much times left in the event. Maybe I can get that card too and I’d only need the HRDs I think.

    Yeah the reason I was considering selling some cards now was I just don’t know who will buy these other cards until a collection is announced but I’d prefer to not wait that long to get 99 Sho

    Actually it's wild the market is this low during a stub sale. Normally it's the opposite.

    I got too deep in investing in those base round derby and asg cards. Now I can't afford one of the elite guys I need for Ohtani...

    A day or two before we got all these cards, I saw someone saying Eddie Murray was a better 1B than Ortiz... but I've been using that Prince Fielder card in the event and I love his swing. Honestly not sure who I'll take either

    Yeah, I was definitely planning on Murray but he won't get any playing time at all for me. I'm going to buy them all eventually anyhow for the collection.

    As bad as it sucks to have all that work/money down the drain and irrelevant now, at least ranked games won't all be the same roster now. There's several options at every position that can be argued as the top guy. The one constant will be DeGrom.

    So I just pulled an 88 Woodruff from a Ballin pack. His sell now is 5026. I'd say any diamond over an 89 that you can get for 5K will return you some money. Might take a few weeks but you won't lose anything.

    I think completing the LS collection should be a goal of anybody who plays diamond dynasty.

    Ehhhhh not really. For someone like me that plays mostly ranked, there's really no point now. If you're just trying trying field the best team you can to play online games, TA3 and the All Star/Derby cards are the move. I totally get that a lot of people like the collecting side of it, but a lot of people, myself included, just want a stacked team to play with.
