    Re: What are you working on?

    Finally got my 40th event win and Ellsbury, that was torture. The next event will have to be pretty special to get me anywhere near it as this month of events has been about as fun as having a weak fly ball strike you in the face after you somehow failed to even get a glove on it.

    Time to start RS I think, although I still need 15 K's with FB Keuchal to get Wagner and 1 more hit with Johnny Bench for Larkin, but I'll probably knock them out when the servers inevitable screech to a standstill

      I completed all 3 events in late June/early July.

      After those runs I never want to do it again.

        I'm finally getting the hang of conquest. Conquered all of the AL & NL West. Now I'm headed east.

          Re: What are you working on?

          Finally finished my first program and now got IV Oswalt in my rotation which I'm stoked about. The only one i want to work on now is the Chipper Jones one but getting those 10 homeruns with rookies is ridiculous. If i get lucky and pull a good card and get lots of stubs I'll get the Rookie Puig as it looks like the only rookie card that can hit for power off both lefties and righties.

          Drabek, Archer and Cruz programs aren't worth doing for me as i have live Archer and Hardware Drabek and the live Nelson Cruz card would be better. I think Ramirez is the only one I'll do now until the new set of programs.

            Aledmys Diaz rookie card has nice pop. I think I hit all 10 with him back when I did it. That was when hitting for power was possible though. 10 homers used to be nothing, but with the recent patches it's much more tedious.

              I picked his rookie card up but just couldn't hit with him to save my life bit his live card was hitting everything haha.

              If i knew if i was facing a left hander or right hander before a game starts i think i would've finished it by now by platooning my rookies.

                Re: What are you working on?

                Completed the Indians epic so I now have to get an awful lot of hits with Michael Brantley. Also means I only need Miggy to complete the AL Central and only need Cano for the AL West. Never really intended to collect everybody this year but it seems to just be sort of happening, only really the AL East left that will be an issue. (if Josh Donaldson and Zach Britton were both to be implausibly traded to the NL, that would be terrific)

                Really need to get back into Ranked Seasons as I want to try and get that Gagne, but all that Events nonsense has put me off playing online for a bit

                  What was it that made you want to complete those collections and divisions though? I've found many of the collection rewards this year to be underwhelming, even moreso with the division rewards. I would imagine for most people, if they've had the resources to finish a division, already have a player that is better than what they're rewarded with.

                  For myself, Indians are the only AL central team left...but LS Miller is stupid expensive and that flashback Kluber doesn't look all that great. Also could've finished the NL West but it's easy to find 1B just as good or better than McCovey. Same with pretty much every damn division. I guess this post is just to say I'm disappointed the collection rewards stink.

                    I'm a hoarder, I'll collect anything. First I bought all the players I actually wanted, then after that what else was there to do but complete the collections I guess? I don't particularly want or care about any of the players I'm getting now, but it's there to be done so I'll do it.

                    Even Ted Williams isn't exactly great, he's just another perfect hitter who can't field or run, like that new Kiner that will probably sell for peanuts, or any of the flashback Miggys.

                    The collection rewards do suck this year, very unsatisfactory. Kluber being the AL Central one is an absolute joke, same for Stanton, A.Gon and Stargell. They really messed that up this year.

                    When I finish the collections there are maybe a handful of flashbacks I might buy, but generally I'm not a huge fan of them. Only really Jose Reyes is standing out as someone I really want

                      Finally finished conquest. Now time to work on those command missions.

                        How do I get the Red's All Star Griffey & the Breakout Griffey? I thought you'd get a mission for the Red's Griffey by conquering the Red stronghold

                          Grinder out and finished the Oswalt and Ryne program. Got me Feller and Triple Crown Miggy in the Dynasty Program. Only program I have left is Felix.

                          My first impression of Ryne is he isn't that great. The low Contact v L is a huge let down so I'm gonna keep rolling with Murphy.

                            Working on that Red's Mystery Mission so I can get 84 All Star & then the 92 Breakout Griffey. I already have the Impact Veteran version. I'm getting close to having the entire Diamond Program done.

                              Ryne is ok for me. But I'd much rather have Seager/Correa at 2nd base. I loooooooooooove Seager.

                                I'm strongly considering buying Seager off the market. I need a lefty bat in my lineup and he kills me every time I play against him
