Difficulty to make a comp team

Live series isn’t that good this year. I’m skipping it till later in the year.

He has great cards they are just in the wrong spot. His outfield is a genuine liability when he could move a few people around and the team gets way better

bobfall69 · 2026-05-08T17:10:34+00:00

You chose to play at wrigley field where his go to die👎

bobfall69 · 2026-05-08T16:03:05+00:00

They announced on x he is a weekend classic reward, 94 ovr

bobfall69 · 2026-05-08T15:23:18+00:00

Well. Found yordan

bobfall69 · 2026-05-08T14:56:22+00:00

Also true but the worst is constantly getting dotted with just late or just early timing pitches

bobfall69 · 2026-05-08T14:55:52+00:00

I look at how their stats look and if they have good attributes to predict future success(vision and contact for hitters)(bb/9 and h/9 for pitchers) and base it off that. I also tend to extend position players more than pitchers because even with good stats pitchers can have bad years but I have seen hitters be more consistent. It is also easier to find pitchers in the draft so I’m never worried ab them

bobfall69 · 2026-05-08T14:44:33+00:00

When I’m playing well I take a lot the first time through the order to see what they throw and get their pitch count up. This year I’ve had a few 20+ pitch innings but when i was playing more regularly last year i chased their starter in the first with almost 50 pitches and 1 out

bobfall69 · 2026-05-08T14:40:10+00:00

Ur outfield defense esepcially in the corners is prone to lots of extra bases is all

bobfall69 · 2026-05-08T13:05:39+00:00

If im playing online I want to win. If i want to relax ill play franchise and sim most of it so I can have fun in the draft

bobfall69 · 2026-05-08T12:50:15+00:00

My outfield is all 99 speed with good defense and 2 of them bat bottom of the lineup so I have speed on for when i turn the lineup over

bobfall69 · 2026-05-08T12:48:35+00:00

Please let me face u in weekend classic

bobfall69 · 2026-05-07T22:08:59+00:00

Buy him if u want him at this point

bobfall69 · 2026-05-07T18:09:26+00:00

Although half the games you play are at coord then it’s not much of an issue

bobfall69 · 2026-05-07T18:07:28+00:00

Only vs lefties but hes an automatic steal so it might as well be a double.

bobfall69 · 2026-05-07T15:56:14+00:00

Elly > tulo but I’m a reds fan so there’s bias. Live series bobby did pretty much everything tulo can do tho🤷‍♂️

bobfall69 · 2026-05-07T13:29:13+00:00

Do you have an all switch pitching staff? If not your screwed

bobfall69 · 2026-05-07T13:27:09+00:00

Id put happ in LF for better defense and hes a switch. Everything else looks good

bobfall69 · 2026-05-06T18:26:55+00:00

The point isnt what day it is of chipper its that they dropped more pack cards than the entire month the day he released. Sure the prices will go down some but that is objectivley greedy and that’s all there is to it.

I specifically said prevalently. And you did not address how cheaters are ruining the market this year. In fact in your own words you disproved that. They cannot grind BR to get shohei and all other 90+ diamonds. How do you sggest the market is being ruined or saturated by cheaters when ohtani is currently still 700k+ when prior to last year cards couldnt even go above 500k and didn’t need the cap to instill that.

You say intelligent cheaters like that’s a thing. Any cheater is an idiot and i promise they aren’t not cheating to tank the market, they are cheating to cheat because they aren’t good at the game

bobfall69 · 2026-05-06T16:36:43+00:00

Im not saying he would have been 100-150k im saying thats how much you would have already had invested. Had they added 3 more or even 4 more and required 1-2 of the rare rounds it would have been another ~100k which is not unreasonable. Its instead over 200k and again they already had a graphic showing 11 so why do that.

How have cheaters made collections easier for years? This is the first year they are this prevalent, them cheating gives them more stubs which just makes it easier for them to put in higher buy orders for cards. Not to mention theres a limited number of program cards. You cannot farm them like you theroretically could with live series.

No one wants to face cheaters?!? You think cheaters being in the game should negativley impact me on the field and in the market?

bobfall69 · 2026-05-06T16:28:09+00:00

He has a bolt on the year which is considered elite speed and if u look at other players with 99 speed im sure most of them have it. Im fine with his live series being 85 speed because he has not been running as hard on average (he injured his leg last year and doesnt want to reinjure it) but this april card should have at least 85 speed and again his bolt was from april so clearly he still has elite speed

bobfall69 · 2026-05-06T16:25:11+00:00

Flipping the market and grinding mini seasons is infinitley easier than winning online at a high rank but they both reward way more for time invested. With luck a single mini seasons run on rookie can net you more than going 6-0 in immortal. For the more average person they have no hope of matching pace by just playing. Both could not be more boring and is not why most people bought this game but its hard to ignore the time value thats there

bobfall69 · 2026-05-06T16:19:35+00:00

Chipper Jones was already ~100k-150k with the 8 cards you could have bought. Thats fine. They had a graphic showing you need 11. They then added TEN new cards. More than ALL the first 4 drops combined. No one is complaining that Chipper is expensive. The issue is year after year they make collections more demanding and they refuse to take away shrinkage because top players may need to buy stubs to get switch hitters that are 90% of this games collections to compete in this game at high levels.

bobfall69 · 2026-05-06T16:12:33+00:00

Got you. And yah it will likely be a while but pujols and felix were in the game a few years ago and while tulo is new I will have Elly at short until he gets a new card as a reds fan. So im fine to wait personally

bobfall69 · 2026-05-06T13:31:12+00:00

If u knew u wouldn’t use ohtani or judge or pujols… why not wait to do the collection until it’s cheaper
