Sell Everything You Don’t Need Early On

One of MLB The Show 25 Stubs the biggest mistakes beginners make is hoarding cards.

Sell Early-Season High Prices

At the start of each season:

Gold cards can reach 4,000–7,000 Stubs

Lower Diamonds can spike above 20,000

Equipment items are extremely inflated

Sell anything you aren’t actively using.

Once the market calms down, rebuy the cards later for cheaper.

Complete Collections Slowly and Profitably

Collections can be expensive, but they also provide valuable rewards.

Best Collection Strategy

Complete cheap teams first

Sell any expensive Diamonds that you pull

ONLY lock in cards once prices fall or you need a specific reward

Beginner mistake: locking in a 60,000 Stub Live Series Diamond early.

Pro players wait, flip, save, and complete strategically.
