    What will you use your stubs for?

    In MLB 14 I never used my stubs until a few months ago when I finally decided I should use them or probably lose them. I used them for training points in RTTS because there were not a lot of other options. that got me wondering about stubs in '15

    I have several ways I can use stubs now.

    I am actually not a fan of boosting players by buying RTTS training points but that is an option.

    I could use them to buy card packs. This holds some interest because you never know what you are going to get and it may be the only way I ever see a diamond player or piece of equipment.

    I plan to play some franchise so I could buy additional budget with the stubs but that idea does not appeal to me much.

    The last way I could use them is the market place. I am guessing that in a month or so the low level player cards will be overflowing in the marketplace so at that point I think I could probably buy common cards pretty cheaply in order to complete a team and earn the legend.

    I am guessing that I may go that last route. I don't actually know If I will play much DD (I have already created a team) but I still kind of like the idea of completing team card collections.

    I will collect card for the fun of it and try to raise a million stubs just for the heck of it. I already sold a diamond Felix Hernandez for 17250 stubs so two days in and I am sitting on 30k+ stubs.

    The most I ever use is 1000 in the offseason of my RTTS to simulate winter ball/training so that is about all I will ever use them for.

      I'm going to save them for a couple diamond players I've been looking at if I didn't pull them by the time I can get that amount. Diamond Cutch was like 44K stubs in the market place.

        I don't know how active I will be trying to sell cards but I might have to think about it if I managed to get a really good diamond player. I think the stubs and completing collections means more to me than a specific Diamond Player since I doubt I spend a ton of time in DD. Getting 20K or so for a diamond player could go a long way towards completing a team with common ones.

          Only Card Packs/Market, I have no other use for them because I don't need RTTS or Franchise boosters.

            I sold a couple of my DD high sliver and one gold I think and used them for packs and some stubs on my RTTS player. I also went to the markerplace and got a set of Nike (gold ) cleats and a ( gold ) Muzuno bat pretty cheap. With some of the packs I bought I got one diamond and one gold both Rawlings gloves. I got some silver/bronze batting gloves and bats and rituals stuff and of course DD players cards. I used the equipment stuff for my RTTS player which is good enough for me.

              I buy packs and cheap player cards. I'm going for George Brett and Ozzie Smith.

                Yea I'm really debating what I want to do. I got a couple good DD players but haven't really played it yet. Guess I need to decide if I'm going to play it. If not I should sell it and buy some equipment for my RTTS player

                  I have no interest in the DD stuff, so maybe I should look into selling some of these player cards. I opened my 15 packs last night that I got from the Anniversary Edition. I think I only got 2 silver players out of all of those, the rest were bronze and common. One of the silvers was Bryce Harper. Think that would sell for anything? How do you tell what the going rate for a card is?

                      Usually use my stubs to train my RTTS players. I get the 2x bonus and go from there.

                      However this year, the 12k stubs I got from the anniversary edition wont' go far. Why? Because Diamond Dynasty is actually fun this time around and looks gorgeous thanks to the bump in graphics.

                      so I might actually spend a lot more on packs or players on the market.

                          I'll definitely use the stubs this year for DD, buy packs and possibly flip deals on the market if it's anyway that way.
