Re: Who are your Investments

I figured this could get a bump with the roster update 1.5 days away. Who does everyone think is going to go up on friday? I'm holding onto to Cano with anticipation of him going to a diamond. I also feel like lucroy has to be a gold sooner or later with only 2 gold or better catchers. I have Segura going to a gold and Chris Carter to a silver. I'm not yet sure about Daniel Murphy. He has an amazing batting average but his power still isn't really there this year. With his contact ratings already high I'm not sure how high his overall can go up with his slg % increasing.

Dexter Fowler has to go up. He's #2 in WAR and crushing by any metric you want to see.

My question with Fowler is much the same as Daniel Murphy. He is hitting the ball well but the 3 hrs makes me think he won't go up. He has received an increase once already and with his contact vs L at 95 it's hard to make it better. I guess his contact R could see a boost at some point again.

When was Fowler upgraded?

When was Fowler upgraded?

If I remember correctly I think he went up 2 updates ago. I could swear he was a bronze when the season started but hey I could be wrong. I'm torn on Scherzer and J. Zimmerman. Zimmerman has a 1.5 era so I would not be surprised if he went up to a diamond but I thought he would last week. Scherzer has an ERA over 4 so I thought he would drop to a gold but now he just struck 20 batters out so I'm not so sure if they will downgrade him yet.

Re: Who are your Investments

I have 10 Dexter Fowlers, might pick up some more. hoping he goes up and I can make enough off him to buy Strasburg who hopefully doesn't go diamond yet.

I checked the update logs and didn't see anything on Fowler.

I would be careful. His price shot from 160 (what I was getting him at) to around 560 now.

Re: Who are your Investments

I have a bunch of Vince Velasquez and Quintanas saved up. As well as a bunch of Michael Confortos although he's slowed down a lot.

Re: Who are your Investments

I have accumulated a few cards of Aaron Sanchez in anticipation that he gets a decent boost in the next few weeks.

Re: Who are your Investments

Does anyone think Cespedes is going to go up to a diamond this week? His value is going up as we are getting closer to Friday and I have debating snagging him. I had 20 some odd thousand stubs so I got Robinson Cano, Jordan Zimmerman, 2 Segura, 2 Chris V. Carter, Aaron Hill, Ben Zobrist, Jose Quintana, Kenta Maeda, Mark Trumbo, and Aledmys Diaz in anticipation that they will all see rating boosts.

Re: Who are your Investments

I invested in 4 players, 2 hitters and 2 pitchers. Their prices have already went up, since smart ppl are anticipating their attribute increase which should happen tomorrow.

One of the players I got is literally 50% higher in price than he was when I got him... I hope he goes diamond, bc if he does, it will be the most profit I'd make on one player.

I'll reveal the one out of 4 I've invested in.. Revealing the other 3 would be stupid, lol...

Robinson Cano. If he goes to a 93, his price will jump to 40k EASY! I got a few of him for 10-11k.. He's already 21-23k..

I doubt Cespedes jumps to diamond. If they add +10 to each of his power and contact ratings, he's still a 92. Being a CF with 67 speed keeps his rating low. If he was a LF, he'd already be a diamond.

They upped him to a 91.

Cano is up to a 91 gold.

Re: Who are your Investments

Cano is up to a 91 gold.

And his price is dropping. Pulled one as a loot drop this AM, figured I'd hold on to the update since his rating would go up and assumed his price would increase no matter what. Was sitting at 21k when I got him, and now he's at ~18.5k. At this point, should I just sell and get what I can, or hold on to him for a week and hope he continues to hit well and goes diamond?

(For full context, he will not be in my lineup as I have the 95 FB Kinsler at 2B. Selling him would help me bolster my pitching staff, not sure if I'll go starter or bullpen)
