What Are You Working On? (MLB The Show 24 Edition)

I always suck with carlos santana but a switch hitting captain is up my alley

I'm not sure how many switch hitters I even have at the moment but i wonder how a max santana boost team compares to a buxton boost team. Interesting that the captain pack is going for 40k and all the capt cards are going for 40k. I wonder if these will sky rocket in price like j roll and ripken did last year once they're removed from the store.

I only have 112k so don't really want to invest to find out

I think SDS listened about the more XP in programs part. Just got to Story via the latest Awards drop, and I’m an offline only guy. I’d imagine the online players are about to hit the gas on the S1 XP path this weekend.

Those Captains look interesting. There are some great switch hitting players I’ve used so far (Dominguez, TA Chili Davis, TA Josh Bell, and the new Ruiz from classics come to mind), so Santana seems like a must-have. Big Papi is obviously mandatory for me as a Red Sox fan. Don’t have 80k stubs to burn, though, so going to hold off until the card prices come down a bit in the coming weeks.

Remember Kenley and Ottovino are relievers that are switch hitters so they’d count. I think Robin Robert’s as well. Haven’t really looked at what that team looks like but there’s been a ton of great switch hitters released recently (though they’re expensive).

I bought the captain pack and picked Suzuki for my cubs team. Might try him as a captain eventually, but either way a pretty good card. Going to buy another pack to sit on to see if prices go up when they’re out of the store or if something becomes the clear meta. Actually a pretty good content drop.

The captain pack is guaranteed captain and pick which one you want right?

I imagine they'll put this pack out later but it does seem like a good value for 40k anyway

Didnt know abiut kenley and ottavino

Yes, it’s a guaranteed captain pick.

Welp all offline content done again. Time for 19 co op games for degrom and 150 ranked points. Then to Events.

I bought a Santana for the switch team and thought about Hoffman but I rarely ever have to use my pen anyway.

Debating on whether to buy a 2nd Santana to hold on to assuming price sky rockets at some point

Would only leave me with 60k to work with.

Depending on the legend cards that get released, Ortiz might be the other Captain to go with. Feels like the legends have had a heavy 2000-2009 skew so far.
