Dude i dont care. i am jealous of your luck. I have 7 diamonds right now including my DD guy. There are others that have a team just as good as yours if not better. I saw someone on twitter got 99 Texas Arod from winning 20 games in BR and i know they have many other diamonds

Re: I need input

Look if I could give stuff away I would. Back in madden 25 I was stupid mut rich because I did lots of wager back then. Hardly had to spend any money at all back then because I was really good at the game. And I went on the EA forums and constantly gave away stuff because I enjoyed the community.
All I wanted to do was talk baseball and get some advice from the community here about some players I don't have so I can have something to works towards. And my luck is gonna run out very soon, I've had 5 Diamond pulls (I think) and sold all of them except the Bryce Harper and DeGrom I needed for collections. And my team is mostly just the players in the Chipper set. Except Goldy and Gwynn.
But if if you guys are just gonna be jealous or nasty towards me for getting lucky then I want no part of it. I would like for people to give me input, think it's cool I had good luck, and whenever someone else has good luck I get excited for them. It's not a contest, it's a community. I don't want it to become just hateful like madden's did

Re: I need input

Don't take it personal dude, always gonna be haters. Just straight up ignore the "wahhh you spent money wahhhh" posts, like they aren't there.

I like your lineup, only suggestion I would make is looking into getting more speed in there somewhere. I just picked up Correa/Altuve for my middle infield and they are a blast.

I also have the 97 Kemp...straight beast 5 tool player. I play him in LF, FB Ichiro in CF and Mr. Padre in RF. If you're looking long term I would work towards the NL West collection to get the Kemp and associated diamonds/golds in that division. I think that would round out your team well and put it up against those who have the Stocker/A-Rods.

I have no problem with you; my post was more referring to how, in general, easy it is to quickly assemble a ridiculously OP team. Just feel like in a month or so, 80% of teams will look like this.

How r altuve and Correa? I am thinking of doing that collection this week. I really want to improve my middle infield. I'm also thinking about Gwynn to go with my Ichiro and diamond Bautista

Yeah you're right

And I've been thinking about Ichiro and Kemp, I would just suck having to bench Harper or Stanton. But I really like the fielding of those two...however I'm about to sell chapman. Dude has as many blown saves as saves total. As for the infield I really like Hanley but I'm down to bounce Murphy. He's been doing worse and worse. Which I don't understand. He should be a raking machine but he's just not. But I've never really like altuve. I think it's because his batting stance has too much movement or something. I might just start dee Gordon until I decide on someone else

Oh how is that Bautista? I've been eyeballing him too. He can play 1B right?

He's a machine. I was raking with the gold while grinding for him and diamond is even better. He hits righties really well. His only downfall is he only has 3b as a second position where the gold has a bunch

Re: I need input

I'm thinking about going for the Matt Holliday flashback but that Matt kemp card looks beastly. What do you guys think ? Before I start buying anything ? Because I know hollidays hitting stats are great but he's slow and fielding is low should I get Holliday or kemp ? I plan to match whoever I get with a outfield of Ichiro and odubel Herrera because Herrera rakes for me.

I've only played 10 or so games with them so far but I really like them both. I feel like Correa is the best value all around SS available right now and he has a very good chance of going diamond in a few months. Altuve doesn't have the best fielding stats but that hasn't been an issue so far.

With Altuve, Ichiro, Kemp and Gwynn I can put speed throughout the lineup, and Correa with 70+ speed is no slouch. Ichiro/Gwynn in the lineup as 1 & 2 - can't go wrong even vs. lefties.

Has Hanley's defense been an issue at all? Love the look of that card but worry about his fielding at SS.

Dang I so wish I could put him at 1B. I'm gonna keep him on my bucket list though. I love his batting stance and the no doubt homer animations he has

I'd go for Matt kemp. He may be a little behind on the hitting but not by much and you're gonna want his fielding ability

Since the Holliday will take more grinding than stubs, I'd say go for him first and work your way towards Kemp at the same time. Having both would be nice!
