You've Got Players? We've Got Stubs (Maybe): A Guide to Quickselling in MLB The Show 23
Ah, the digital clutter of a champion. Your player collection is overflowing like a spring training buffet after a carb-loading session. You've got bronze benchwarmers multiplying like rabbits in a batting cage, and your silver superstars are yesterday's news. Fear not, my friend, for this guide will be your Marie Kondo of MLB The Show 23, helping you spark joy (read: Stubs) by ruthlessly decluttering your collection.
Step 1: Accepting You Have a Problem (We All Do)
Let's face it, we've all been there. You pack a hot prospect, shower him with confidence training, and then...bam! Reality hits harder than a Chapman fastball. Turns out, Joey "The Hammer" Rodriguez isn't quite ready to launch dingers off deGrom. Now you're stuck with a guy who couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat (allegedly, Joey). This is where quickselling comes in. It's the digital equivalent of shoving unwanted socks to the back of a drawer, only slightly less depressing.
Step 2: The Art of the Farewell Flip (Without the Tears)
Here's the nitty-gritty:
- Navigate to "My Inventory" - This is where dreams go to die (or become Stubs!).
- Find your unwanted player - Use the handy filters to sort by overall, team, or that nagging feeling of disappointment you have every time you see their name.
- Behold the Quicksell Button! - It's the little icon with a down arrow and a pile of coins (because that's basically what your player is about to become).
- Accept the Inevitable - A pop-up will show you the measly amount of Stubs you'll receive. Remember, a quicksell is for clearing clutter, not getting rich.
Pro Tip: Shedding a tear over a bronze player? Just imagine it as a heartwarming underdog story. He's finally getting called up...to the big leagues of your trade pile!
Step 3: What NOT to Quicksell (Unless You're Feeling Spicy)
Now, before you go Thanos-snapping your entire collection, there are a few things to consider:
- Live Series Players: These guys fluctuate in value more than a Bartolo Colon fastball. Check the marketplace before you quicksell, you might be surprised!
- Future Stars: These young studs have potential. Unless you're desperate for Stubs, hold onto them and see if they develop into the next Mike Trout (fingers crossed!).
- Players with Hidden Quirks: Maybe they have a funky batting stance that throws off the pitcher, or a cannon for an arm. These "niche" players can be surprisingly valuable online.
The Bottom Line: Embrace the Churn
Quickselling is a necessary evil in MLB The Show 23. It's the spring cleaning of your digital clubhouse, making room for the next generation of stars (or at least marginally better benchwarmers). So don't be afraid to hit that button, and remember, every quicksell brings you one step closer to packing that elusive Trout. Just maybe don't cry about it (too much).
