    Thank you, gentlemen. I would have ~294k pxp after leveling Baez to plat10, so I'm thinking that would get him to d6 or so (in a discount club of course). I could garner a smidge more by trading in other prime players I have no use for, but that would only take me over the hump of one level if I'm within a few thousand. I'd hate to jump to diamond and find out diamond pitchers are introduced in woh Monday, but I'd also hate to miss the opportunity to get Baez as far as possible with a discount. Arenado has a slightly better hit and power rating and a better skill, but Baez would fill a much greater need. I think I'll wait until Sunday to figure this out.

    @retirepujols: well I got Baez.  Not a gold medal, but still on the podium.

    @ZaneJ78: pushes him off the podium, and kicks dirt in his eye

    @retirepujols man it be like that some weekends. I usually stop at about 2500 so I can get the 3boxes for fan rewards. If I don’t get anything then I don’t go any further. Just my thing. You can get sucked into the chase trust me I’ve been there many of times

    That's a solid strategy @UltimateWarrior, one that I plan to stick to from here on out and one that is close to my typical strategy. I blacked out chasing the one guy I've been waiting weeks/months for, but you know what? 🤬 him if he doesn't want to be on my squad 😂

    I agree with stopping at 2500. I went to 5k this week for the 8k pxp since i had to spend gold leveling a few guys. They make it way to easy to keep hitting the buy button and watching your gold drop to 0 lol

    Wow. How did you get the players???? I got 5 straight boxes of prime and regular XP. I guess that it is not my time to get cool boxes like you did. Would love to have Braez

    Yep. 18 boxes, 4x degrom. I should be grateful though. Saved me resources and got some prime xp.  Shouldn’t have bought any boxes but I couldn’t help myself.

    Took a shot at a few more break out boxes to try and level Meadows again in diamond, and to no avail. Luck has run dry this weekend

    Trust me I’ve spent my fair share of money and time on these boxes and many others, don’t worry you will pull players eventually. Don’t forget about the free boxes from Twitter as well!

    I could use some of that self-control stuff if you find it, @Tdub71

    The game feels sorry for me.  They finally gave me some players from boxes that aren't Joc Pederson.  Got McCann at least, so I finally got to upgrade from 4 star Ramos!  Gonna miss that guy.  Don't care for McCann's skills, but he's a big upgrade for my team, so I'll take it.  I'd really like that Arenado though.  I still have some gold though!  Self-control, self-control, self-control...
    Just no.

    @retirepujols I'd say so!  I really want the Arenado, but a member of the club already has him, so it probably won't give him to me.  Not allowed!  Maybe I can finally beat some classic, we'll see.
    Just no.
