You've Got the Gear, But Fear Not, We'll Get You Out of Here: A Guide to Quick Selling in MLB The Show 23
Ah, MLB The Show 23. The crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd...and the ever-growing pile of digital baseball cards overflowing your virtual binder. Been there, my friend, been there. You open a pack, get excited about a shiny new outfielder, then realize...you already have five outfielders with names you can barely pronounce. What do you do? Well, my friend, it's time to learn the art of the quick sell.
Don't Panic, Sell Smart (Unless You Really Need Stubs, Like, Yesterday)
Now, before you go Hulk Smashing your inventory and turning every card into a measly pile of Stubs, let's pump the brakes a sec. Quick selling gets you fast cash, but it ain't exactly getting top dollar at a high-end auction house. Think of it like selling your old college textbooks back to the campus bookstore – you get a few bucks, but it ain't gonna finance your spring break trip to Cancun.
That being said, if you're staring down a Momente mission that requires a small mountain of Stubs and your patience is thinner than a rookie's fastball control, then by all means, quick sell away! Just remember, greatness takes time (and maybe a little flipping on the Marketplace).
The Art of the Quick Sell: A Step-by-Step Guide (with Minimal Tears)
Okay, you're committed. Here's how to turn those unwanted players into a (somewhat) respectable haul:
- Head to your Collection: This is your virtual card filing cabinet, overflowing with baseball dreams (and some questionable facial hair choices).
- Identify the Culprits: Look for those bronze and common players gathering dust. Think of them as the backup singers you never quite connected with on a road trip. Pro Tip: Filter by tier to find the easy targets.
- The Big Click: This is where the tears might well up. Hit that "Quick Sell" button and watch your unwanted become a (slightly) bigger pile of Stubs.
Remember: There's a 10% tax on all sales, so keep that in mind when mourning the loss of your potential All-Star (who probably wouldn't have made the starting lineup anyway).
Quick Sell Hall of Shame (Who Gets Dumped First?)
Now, let's be honest, not all cards are created equal. Here's who gets the quick sell boot first:
- The Bronze Benchwarmers: Let's face it, they're never sniffing the big leagues.
- Duplicate City: You got Joey Gallo three times? Sorry, Joey, two's a crowd (and frankly, your strikeouts are a little much).
- The Mystery Minors: Those low-level Minor League prospects with zero name recognition? Adios, amigos!
Remember: This ain't personal, it's just business (and the burning desire to build your dream team).
The Final Sell-ebration (Because Even Quick Selling Needs a Celebration)
You've done it! You've conquered the clutter and emerged with a (slightly) bigger pile of Stubs. Now, go forth and build your diamond dynasty! Just remember, quick selling is a last resort. For the truly dedicated (and patient) gamers, the Marketplace awaits, where real fortunes (well, maybe a few thousand Stubs) can be made. But hey, for now, celebrate your quick sell success with a victory dance (and maybe a hot dog – you deserve it!).
