    @dkarski87 Well... I just have a special place in my heart for Nolan Ryan lol. And yeah, only 2 that weren't HOF cycle caps- Nolan and Kruk.

    OK fair enough.  I pulled Giambi yesterday and Alex told me not to cap him. Now I wish I did after seeing you cap a pitcher. Ty alex!!

    Well, I opened 50 of those Hot Hair boxes.  Stupid me, trying to chase Mike Schmidt.  It is like they knew I was coming.  I am a math guy so I understand probably, and each pull is independ of the others, but through an old man a bone, no legends or primes?  I've never had a streak like this, 3 pity timers 360 bxp Players Delino Deshields, and 2 Dillon Peters, and a big ol 5/15 staring back at me on the pitty time.  I am not sure whether to cry or take a nap.
    Decision made, I choose both, later fellas.

    I am not a VIP, but love seeing everyone's post about the gifts and their pulls.

    Could use some help making a decision.  With the VIP gift I have enough LXP to level two players after I jump to gold (gonna wait till newsletter reward comes through).  I will cap Carew (lefty 470 max) and Baylor (righty 470 max).  After newsletter reward I may b close to capping a third.   Should I cap bagwell (righty 470 max) or mookie (450 max but a switch hitter).  He may b a better option for WOH. Thoughts?

    Do I cap Seager or chase Breg? 
  • HaraycarayHaraycaray Registered Users, Member 910 Posts

    Seeing these VIP posts each month make me so sad... and sick. Sick because I just got to level 9 this morning in all star and KNOW I will not spend the $300(ish) more to make it to level 10. Sick that I spent as much as I did and am still not there. Sick to see all those XP's. 

    On the other hand I am so happy for those that are VIP because they have earned it.

    Spending 0 gold again this weekend just can’t pull the trigger on these players even at silver. Pulled nothing from vip gift other than goldy which I’m happy with. Nice vip gift worth the wait 👍🏻🙂 Looking forward to Monday Hof 

    Nice pull @JEDDDOGGY 😬👏

    But if the Cards win their series Sunday, doesn’t Ozuna get bumped to 450? Might be tempting to spend a little 🤷‍♂️
    Just a Silver team from the wrong side of the tracks, so what do I know? 🤷

    Round 2!

    I liked getting POTM boxes better than these weekend boxes. Just my preference. This was the last set of POTMs too. 
  • mwilson829mwilson829 Registered Users, Member 364 Posts
    Pulled Nolan Ryan.  Love him, and I am within shouting distance of the LXP I would need to cap him, but I just can't see spending all of my LXP on a pitcher (even one as good as him).  My POTM Cole and Flaherty have ERAs of 0.12 and 0.24, respectively, and have pitched complete games every time out so far.  Could a max 490 Nolan Ryan really been any more effective than that?

    Depends on how quickly you can reload on lxp. If I had to choose, I would actually value Mookie more than Bagwell because of his versatility and WoH friendly skills. Given your situation(you can already cap two elite legends), I wouldn't cap Bags or Mookie if it meant sacrificing the ability to cap a potential new legend.

    Yeah haven’t gotten any new legends in a bit but I have a lineup full of them (all except SS). 
  • bigvivecbigvivec Registered Users, Member 2,133 Posts
    I pulled a barnload.....leveled these two so far.....only cause the only thing better than one 3b is two.......



  • HaraycarayHaraycaray Registered Users, Member 910 Posts

    From the VIP gift round 1 I pulled signature Acuna and a 360. Will hold Acuna until Sunday to see if a chance of Braves taking a 2-1 series lead and then going to a 30% club to level him up. Actually not really sure since I doubt they would in that case beat the Dodgers to take him to 470, and as it is I already have in the OF a 450, another 450 and a 470. So Acuna really only helpful if Braves win the WS (good luck with that).
    Then from VIP round 2 I got another 360 and the 490 Cepeda (1B) and his not-so-good skills. Not going to use him since this week I got 470 Cecil Cooper with double late inning skills and he is already at S10.
    So thank you GLU for a very nice gift. All in all, the resources were very nice and so were the boxes. Didn't pull anything special (for me) but I didn't really like anything from the boxes. 
  • HaraycarayHaraycaray Registered Users, Member 910 Posts
    Seager is capped just the wait for 470 now lol 
  • navyjack77navyjack77 Registered Users, Member 1,299 Posts
    Just picked this guy but don’t know what to do with him.
  • JCAM80JCAM80 Registered Users, Member 606 Posts
    A legend pitcher is never a necessity, so it depends on your resources & interest in scoring weekend points. It is a cool image and an actual elite legend among some questionable ones.
