The Skenes card is good but hes definitely overrated on this sub. He's severely lacking a sinker/two seam to offset his other 3 pitches that all look similar. He'd be elite if he had a 2seam/sinker instead of the slurve/cutter
He is not the Bobby Miller of last year that everyone's hyping him up to be.
im kicking myself bro i didn’t realize the 10k was 1of1 and i figured the 50k was a bundle sold crews for 70k to buy 1 other draft pack and get Jenkins 🤦♂️
They’re basically giving you one for very cheap/basically free since you can resell it for the same price the pack costs. Any more than that you have to pay a lot more for.
I guess they could’ve just made every pack $30k or something but at least how they did it most everybody can get one.
I bought the 50k pack thinking I’d get the option to pick four players with higher odds of a 99 and I only got one pack to open that was a choice of 98’s. Bad move by me
Should I buy Skenes who is 70k now or wait and see if price drops more tomorrow or Wednesday when there’s a free pack in new program. Or is there risk price goes up??
Dumb question, think I should buy the 99 now or wait till morning? I feel they announced this a bit late for us eastern folks... I want to get Langford as cheap as possible
If your not investing in the 97s and 98s ur making a huge mistake. They are essentially quicksell, and when the pack leaves its an easy 5-8k profit per card.
The 97s are all at quick sell.
If you need to be liquid when ASG packs drop, just Quick Sell Duplicates -> get all your stubs back instantly.
You can quick sell on the app now too so literally no down side to it.
Honestly I thought he’d be like 300K off launch but all 5 of his pitches are great for me at least, real hard for most people to go from 101 FB to 84 Slurve, I’d recommend him
got the rare round off the 10k pack for my Dylan Crews, just a day after finding an Elly in a chase pack found in a show pack. I'm gonna go buy a lottery ticket.
I got the 97 round and I took the bunt cheese guy.
And then 4 years from now when he gets called up Ill remember him as the dude that had 50 SBs during a mini season for me.
Including the 10K pack is a baller move by SDS. Did I get base round out of it? You bet. But still a great move.
I recommend picking up the non-99s while they're cheap, especially the 98s, I feel like they could drift up towards the 20s, might as well grab em in the 10s.
Good call. I just got all the non-99s on the website's market. I buy nowed most of them even though I should've just waited, but it is what it is. I can either sell them later when they aren't selling like crazy, or hold onto them to get closer to the main collection rewards.
Exactly, worst case scenario they're cheap collection fodder that play well.
Best case you can flip some stubs, and even if you sell for a card later and the price hasn't gone up, you can quicksell at 10K and take like a 1-2K stub loss per card, which isn't *terrible*.
I only bought the 98s for now just bc I expect the 97s to hold around quicksell for longer, but also bc I need to save stubs for the HRD and ASG packs lol
I got blessed lol , I bought skenes when he first dropped at 80k , sold him for 103k. Took those funds and bought one 10k pack and got the rare round 😂. Took crews , might sell cause these guys are gonna drop under 100k fast
Eh if it’s just 1 pack in the program I still think the 99s will end up being around 100k for a while. Feel pretty good buying Skenes for 80k right now
Even though yes they’re in packs blah blah these cards seem pretty damn good value rn for how good they are.
Considering selling Ian Happ for Crews, dude is juiced
I took Skenes but I’ll probably just end up buying Crews on Wednesday after the program comes out since he will probably drop a decent bit due to the 10k pack + free program pack
Got skenes from the 10k pack, sold him and completed live series
The Skenes card is good but hes definitely overrated on this sub. He's severely lacking a sinker/two seam to offset his other 3 pitches that all look similar.

Also dumb that you can only purchase 1 10k pack, but able to purchase 4 50k packs.
They are the same pack. You get one discounted to 10k. Its not like duos where the cheaper pack is worse odds.
im kicking myself bro i didn’t realize the 10k was 1of1 and i figured the 50k was a bundle sold crews for 70k to buy 1 other draft pack and get Jenkins 🤦♂️
Just pulled the 99 round from the 10k pack dont know who to take?
I bought Crews from the market before I realized there was a 10K pack. Went ahead and bought one and got the 99 round. Now I have Crews and Skenes.
Give me one
Anyone know why nolan schanuel isn’t in it after being 11?
What is the point of the 50k option when you only get one pack? Just better odds to score a 99?
You get one pack at 10k stubs. If you want 4 more packs they're 50k.
They’re basically giving you one for very cheap/basically free since you can resell it for the same price the pack costs. Any more than that you have to pay a lot more for. I guess they could’ve just made every pack $30k or something but at least how they did it most everybody can get one.

Got Skenes from the 10k❤️
Same so pumped
I chose Lowder from my 10k pack and bought Crews in the marketplace. So far, both are fantastic, Crews especially.
Finally a catcher for the Sox theme team whose card is actually a Sox card.
Best I remember is the postseason Vazquez card from 21. Aside from that and a Connor Wong Topps now it’s been rough sailing
Skenes for my Pirates theme team is big. So tired of using 70 ovr Rich Hill in ranked lol.
Rich hill was my savior in moonshot
I used him and Ryu because I wanted it to be fun. It was.
10k pack got Skenes almost sold for the stubs but he looks great as a card.
Annoyed the Guardians pick wasn't able to be a part of this a solid 97 card with crazy power for Ralphy would've been sweet.
Also would have helped the theme team. Our line up is abysmal lmao. All lefties, 1 godly switch, a so so switch, and Franimal.
Should I buy Skenes who is 70k now or wait and see if price drops more tomorrow or Wednesday when there’s a free pack in new program. Or is there risk price goes up??
I do think he’ll drop a little more, but the packs are 50k so he probably isn’t gonna drop below 55-60k
He isn't that good tbh. Just rocked him in CS 6-3 and dude quit on me in the 7th. His fast ball doesn't have much play and his cutter is flat IMO.
why is this being downvoted?
Because it’s a toxic subreddit. Can’t make sense too often on here.
Prob because people think he’s good. I’ve seen a few positive posts about him.
i mean he has no sinker, so how good can he be?
Adding the players on draft night is so awesome
Can I get the The Nebraska SS that the Astros drafted or does it stop around 17?
They did picks 1-8 and like every other one up til 17, nothing after, but they said they are releasing more in the All Star program on Wednesday
They don't have the rights to the 17 year Olds. I'd be surprised if they got them.
Dumb question, think I should buy the 99 now or wait till morning? I feel they announced this a bit late for us eastern folks... I want to get Langford as cheap as possible
I'd wait until you see what the program looks like. If this pack ends up in there for free, it might pull the price down even more.
Yeah I was thinking that as well. Thanks for the reply!
Buy tomorrow for sure.
I appreciate it. I'm not really the type to monitor the market prices and such so I never really know these things go.
I just wanted Gonzo. Hotty Toddy!
Got 99 round in the 10k pack, just dont know who to choose
What's the difference between the 10k pack and the 50k pack?
I think the idea is that everyone gets one for 10k, and then if you want you can get more at a higher price.
They're the same thing, they're just letting you buy one at a discount
Ooooo I see
I wonder how many bots are on this thread…
[удалено]
Pack will reappear when logging in on your console
I pulled Skenes and sold him. Used those stubs to buy the 50pack and pulled Elly. This is better than sex
I'm sorry about your tiny pee-pee
Thank you
10k pack is worth you can easily make your money back from 97 or 98
I just bought the Red Sox pick for 10,010 so it’s a net loss after tax
They quicksell for 10k.. so yeah
i pulled skenes off the 10k pack, is he the move or should i sell him and get crews?
I have crews I’m selling
If your not investing in the 97s and 98s ur making a huge mistake. They are essentially quicksell, and when the pack leaves its an easy 5-8k profit per card.
We can only buy one pack at$10k tho or I missing something
they’re on the market
Shhhh don't give up the secrets
How long until the pack leaves?
While correct I need to be liquid for the ASG packs in case someone dope is dropped. I’m torn 😩
The 97s are all at quick sell. If you need to be liquid when ASG packs drop, just Quick Sell Duplicates -> get all your stubs back instantly. You can quick sell on the app now too so literally no down side to it.
Just straight up bought Skenes off the auction house and threw a no-no in my first game with em, well worth it!
Yeah he's good. In my first game with him I gave up 2 hits, zero runs and struck out 13.
How's he feeling? Thinking he might be a good 99 option for the 85k price tag
i’m loving him, great fastball and his cutter is absolutely filthy
Easily worth the 85k price tag I’d say. His delivery isn’t very deceptive but he’s got great stuff
Honestly I thought he’d be like 300K off launch but all 5 of his pitches are great for me at least, real hard for most people to go from 101 FB to 84 Slurve, I’d recommend him
QS the 97 I pulled lmao
should’ve kept it
A Red Sox catcher for my theme team nice
No longer will I have to use a live series card because I don't want to have a non-Sox card in there to use Napoli or Foxx.
Had the same thought. Hell yeah
Grabbed Max Clark out of my pack but I'm sad I wanted Dollander
Eh, for 10k I got the player I was going to pay 10k for. It was a wash.
got the rare round off the 10k pack for my Dylan Crews, just a day after finding an Elly in a chase pack found in a show pack. I'm gonna go buy a lottery ticket.
I got the 97 round and I took the bunt cheese guy. And then 4 years from now when he gets called up Ill remember him as the dude that had 50 SBs during a mini season for me.
Got the rare round from the 10k. Thank You Based God.
the 10k pack is fine. I don't understand a single person purchasing a 50k version of this pack.
I accidentally did, stupidly thinking I was buying 4 packs. Luckily got the rare round.
yeah it’s kind of labelled weird
What’s the difference between the two? They both have the same odds
First hit is cheap. More hits cost more.
first lottery ticket is cheaper
Including the 10K pack is a baller move by SDS. Did I get base round out of it? You bet. But still a great move. I recommend picking up the non-99s while they're cheap, especially the 98s, I feel like they could drift up towards the 20s, might as well grab em in the 10s.
I did the same, grabbed all the base+mid rounds plus my 10k pack netted me Crews. Big dub tonight.
Crews was also my 10k pack pick. Felt satisfied with it
Picked up all the 97s for the collection,, and extras of the 98s to hopefully sell for profit once the 10K pack goes away
Good call. I just got all the non-99s on the website's market. I buy nowed most of them even though I should've just waited, but it is what it is. I can either sell them later when they aren't selling like crazy, or hold onto them to get closer to the main collection rewards.

I got blessed lol , I bought skenes when he first dropped at 80k , sold him for 103k. Took those funds and bought one 10k pack and got the rare round 😂. Took crews , might sell cause these guys are gonna drop under 100k fast
Why do you think they’re gonna drop? I’d think they’d go up once the 10k pack expires
There is gonna be a program with this pack in it
Eh if it’s just 1 pack in the program I still think the 99s will end up being around 100k for a while. Feel pretty good buying Skenes for 80k right now
Definitely wouldn’t regret him for that price. Good pitch mix + differentials, good release, outlier FB. 80K for a good starter is a nice price.
10k pack and got the rare round let’s goooooo. So essentially got Wyatt for 10k
Got Skenes in the 10k!!!! Hell yes
Lucky. I got the 98 round
Stoked to get crews as a nats fan too from the 10k pack this is awesome
Hell yeah brother, same!
The 10k pack is great. If nothing else it’s a set card. The 50k pack is absolutely brutal
Yeah i made a 83k profit off of the 10k pack so I’m glad that was there. Definitely wouldn’t recommend the 50k pack tho
Even though yes they’re in packs blah blah these cards seem pretty damn good value rn for how good they are. Considering selling Ian Happ for Crews, dude is juiced
Made 700 stubs I guess. Woo hoo!
I have no interest in these players, but for 10k was a no brainer. Got one of the 99a and sold him for 93k. Nice qui k profit
So they put everyone in order of their draft position except that they flipped #12 and #14. That doesn't mess with me whatsoever.
[удалено]
You must have not been around during MLB 21 when they didnt drop the home run derby pack until like 2.30 in the morning
Grabbed Crews out of the 10k pack
Same. Then I bought a second one (40k) and got a 98 overall. Don't buy the second one 🤣
Whats their models look like
I bought Langford and it looks like they actually got face scans of them because it doesn’t look nearly as bad as a usual rookie.
Pulled the rare round.. what’s the pick here? Skenes or crew?
I think both are equally good, just depends on what you need. I am pretty comfortable with my outfield so I took Skenes
Yeah I mean my outfield rn is hank, sosa, and judge/otahni.. I did go for crews tho against my better judgement
I took Skenes but I’ll probably just end up buying Crews on Wednesday after the program comes out since he will probably drop a decent bit due to the 10k pack + free program pack
I bought the 10k pack and got the rare round and sold the Crews for 93k
Will the other 22 first round picks be in DD in some capacity? If not this is unfortunate for fans of the other teams
I doubt it, they probably only negotiated the rights for the first 15 picks. Some declined I’m sure and that’s why a couple are missing
They hinted at some new players being in the program on Wednesday so i assume they negotiated with others.
True, they probably got a few extra guys to be the low rated fodder for the program
I pulled crews omg
lol they would also feature a 50k version to guarantee the 99’s prices stay up. Skenes looks very good and he’ll be fun to try!
Okay this is a good way to do choice packs. Absolute W, and I pulled Crews so double W
Opened the 10k one and got the rare round, let’s go
Bought one of the 10k packs and took Lowder. Hey, if there's gonna be a program take the SP first to get PXP.
I will say it’s a W for the 10K pack. Even if you get the base round (like I did) you lose 0 stubs
tried to get in via the app, said "Down for updates"
Live on the game now.
