About golds under 5,000 stubs

Five thousand stubs is roughly what an hour of play returns, which makes this the practical shopping list for a squad being built rather than bought. A hundred-odd Golds sit under that line at any time, and the best of them outperform Diamonds that cost fifty times more.

What to watch here: Under 5,000 stubs, OpScore and price stop correlating almost entirely — this is the cut where the ranking disagrees with the market most often.

Every row carries the live buy-now price, the best sell order, the spread between them, and each card’s OpScore — our re-weighting of the attributes that actually decide at-bats, rather than the single headline number the in-game Overall reports. Click any card for its full price history, quirks and OpScore breakdown.

Prices come from the in-game marketplace and are re-polled continuously. Cards with no buy-now listing are excluded from this page rather than shown at zero stubs — nobody selling is not the same thing as free.

Building on a budget

Common questions

How many golds under 5,000 stubs are there in MLB The Show 26?

99 cards currently match this cut and carry a live buy-now price. This page shows the top 50 by price; the full set is filterable on the market page.

Why is a card missing from this list?

Two reasons. Either it does not match the cut, or it has no buy-now listing at all — cards nobody is selling are left out instead of being priced at zero. A card can also drop off within minutes of its last listing selling.

Are these prices live?

They come from the in-game marketplace, which we re-poll continuously. Signed out, this page serves them from a cache that can be up to five minutes old. Either way the “prices last fetched” stamp above the table is the real fetch time, not the time you loaded the page, so you can judge the age yourself rather than take our word for it.
