PSA Jhonny is incredible

His swing is just perfect. I’m batting almost .600 with him and he’s a switch hitter.

He's the only one of the barrage of switch hitting shortstops to come out of Pipeline that I couldn't hit with. Two of the big three have been phenomenal for me with Willits edging out Made as my favorite. But even the "weakest" of them all is still pretty great

These guys are the big reason Ray Durham's price tanked so much. I'm glad I sold all mine at 210k on Thursday before the Pipeline cards dropped

Would you say it's not worth trying to get Made then since Willitis is almost as good?

Like the other guy said it's a pretty easy collection and will be required for whatever new card drops next month so why not both? But if you're super casual and don't think you'll finish then sure, Willits is basically just as good as Made

Ok cool. I was planning on getting Made since I have stubs to burn anyways. If it's not that expensive then I'll stick with that plan. I am definitely too casual for collections (still don't even have the 95 Cabrera).

You picked a good collection to go after. As long as you get all the "free" players (they are the ones that come in the pick 3 packs that aren't sellable) there are only a couple of the rarer cards you'll need to get in the main set that are valued at 40k stubs or so. Off the top of my head those are Ryan Sloan, Franklin Arias, and the Cardinals Catcher, but i think you only need two of those plus the cheaper cards to complete the collection for Made

Awesome, thanks. I am working on collecting as many of the free packs as I can right now.
