While packs are generally a risky way to build your team in MLB The Show 25, they can serve a valuable purpose when you're trying to complete collections—especially during the early stages of the game cycle.

Quick sell low-value extras if you're in a hurry.
Flip silver and gold cards that have solid market demand.
By turning duplicate cards into stubs, you can reinvest those earnings into purchasing missing cards to MLB Stubs for sale finish your collections.
