    Not sure. That’s a big target. Thinking probably not but once they turn on double XP, we’ll see how I’m doing.

    I think I’m also about to finish live series. Only had Trout left after pulling Ohtani. Put everything I had into Topps Now guys that I’ll be looking to sell once they rise a bit and then hopefully will be enough to get him

    Smh who sits down and picks this for a team name? I actually took the time to report this one, fuck him. Been a rough week for me so this rage quit felt good.

    I’m at 197K after a day and a half without any double XP yet so a mil might not be that crazy.

    I’m assuming there will be at least 1 more conquest and a showdown. More exchanges and collections

    Another set of moments and missions

    Thinking I’ll grab Mitchell from NL Central, Watson from NL East, Bello from AL East and then Miller and Toglia (only switch hitter) from NL West. Outside of that I don’t care about having any of the other cards. Since I’m nowhere near Brett, may just sell the other 7 off

    How? You have to get to 260k just to get him. I guess they could have bought him but still someone had to get to 260k to get him so they didn't start right away yesterday.

    Maybe they gave e the first p5 to him? 280 p1, 40 p2, 7 p3, 3 p4, and 1 p5.

    Baty is the play from the NL East imo for all of us non-Brett owners

    He was NL, Judge was AL. Jram and Arenado were the AL/NL POTM in April and neither got a POTM card of any kind.

    Haven’t had a ton of time to play lately but was able to get Rockies city connect voucher while doing conquest which was good for 45K XP total. Plus a few missions and all the exchanges I’m at 105K. I have 28 moments to do that will get me 28K more for FutureOFT programs.

    Played 3 games today and something felt off. I couldn't get any swing and misses. Took until late in the 3rd game but I realized all 3 were road games where the othe guy picked a created stadium with Blank Canvas as a base and then just did contact swing all game. People did that at Shippett last year, guess this is the way this year. It's not fun but I guess I'll just have to do the same. Contact swing with 80+ Power is plenty to get it out of there.

    depends on his stats but most likely yes. The Rizzo, Crawford and Joc cards were 3 of my favorite cards.


    Although I do like that Toglia future stars card at 1st

    Devers is going to rake. His 90 overall does so this one will be stupid.

    I'm being hypocritical a bit because I like the FS concept...

    but this card is worse than Baty and that sucks. Devers is one of the few guys I can hit well with so I'll take it but I think this is the first lightning card that might go straight to my bench.

    Almost done with conquest and up to 104 stars so will have my first 93 soon. Tomorrow should have both 93s and closing on Rice. Up to 276K XP in the featured program.

    Hoping by end of week to have the May monthly done, finish live series and to be near 400K XP so I’ve gotten all 12 future of the franchise choices.

    There’s basically 0 chance I have the will power to do so but I’d like to save all packs from 400K-1M and open all at once

    Would leave you with:

    6 FOTF choice packs
    36 show packs
    2 set 17 headliner
    4 Ballin
    Big dog set 1
    Big dog set 2
    Big dog set 3
    Always Intense 1
    13,500 stubs

    Plus I’m sure I’d have to be doing mini seasons or rounds of mystery map to do that so however many packs that netted.

    Next game will take me to 380K XP and the last future of the franchise choice.

    I’ve sold off all but Garrett Mitchell so far. May buy some back as the prices keep dropping into the teens

    Got Devers and close to getting the first in stage 3

    Bought Trout today and finished live series. Massive upgrade to the team getting him, Glaus, Young, Thomas and Randy all at once.

    Does the gameplay XP count for all the programs at once? Like as I’m grinding through FOTF does it help the May program?

    Saw earlier that Judge is now the highest rated live series card, the first person to overtake Trout since 2015. Acuna and Jram are higher too.

    Follow up on this.

    Glaus is dogshit. That is all.

    Finished May monthly and Angels. Working on each division XP for the featured program now doing cycles of mystery map and started a mini season using bronze hitters at blank canvas so I can get these bronze rookie cards that have no supply and hundreds of orders

    Have done Veterans, Topps Now, Prospects and Monthly collections. 1 more for Faces of the Franchise and I’ll get that choice with 7K more XP. By end of the program in 3 weeks for sure I’ll finish Breakout, Postseason, Prime, Rookie, Signature, Milestone, 2nd Half and All Star.

    Will need to work to be able to also do Awards, Cover athletes and Takashi

    I hope you replayed it. A pitcher HR is the only acceptable time to replay HR. Well other than the other guys being a dick or having a racist team name.

    Been rolling with Stott, much better for me than Gunnar. Also I’ve been primarily live series in the most recent event. You cannot convince me there’s a better Future star than trout, Ron, Stanton, Mook, Jose and Goldy. If you have a third you like, slide Jose to short and mash away.

    SS is far and away the thinnest position this year. Trea still has it and lots of people still running out Tatis.

    LS Sale has been the best SP for me online by a long shot. Pretty excited and also upset at seeing his 96ovr Monthly card. It'll definitely be the best pitcher for me for the rest of this game. But I also can't hit Sale for shit so seeing an opposing team throw him isn't gonna be great

    He's the 5th rated 3b, which is about right. He should be above Bregman at 4th but he's clearly behind Machado, Jram, Arenado, and Devers.

    Speaking of LS cards, pretty dumb that the highest rated card, Judge, is completely unusable online bc he has 57 contact vs lefties. He is much better vs righties irl but 57 vs lefties is just too low.

    Bobby Miller card the new meta? Played like 5-6 rs games yesterday and probably faced him 4 times
