What's New

New Features for 2026

StubBot has been rebuilt from the ground up for the 2026 season — faster, smarter, and completely hands-free.

🖥️

Runs in The Background/Minimized New

Runs completely autonomously in the background — no more keyboard or mouse takeover. Minimize the window and use your PC normally while it works.

Parallel Buy & Sell Orders New

Sell orders are now placed during the buy order phase, cutting update cycles significantly and keeping your listings competitive around the clock.

🔍

Direct Price Reading New

Stub prices are read directly from the app's UI — no more fragile OCR. Prices are captured accurately every time, regardless of resolution or font rendering.

🛡️

Rock-Solid 24/7 Reliability New

Rebuilt with robust error handling and smarter app state tracking. Recovers automatically from app hangs, network hiccups, and UI inconsistencies — designed to run for days unattended.

Prerequisites

System Requirements

  • Windows 10/11 64-bit
  • An Android emulator — see our Discord for the recommended emulator and download link
  • MLB The Show Companion App installed via Google Play Store inside your emulator

App Setup

  • Only diamond equipment items are currently supported.
  • The bot buys items saved to your favorites under the Equipment tab.
  • Tap the heart icon on each diamond equipment item to favorite it.
  • Any diamond equipment in your inventory will automatically be listed for sale.

Emulator Settings

Configure the following in your emulator's settings for best compatibility:

Graphics & Display

  • Graphics → Vulkan mode
  • Display → Tablet mode, 1920×1080, DPI 280 (other resolutions untested)
  • Optional: Enable "Dynamically adjust frame rate" (15 Frame) — saves energy when running in background

Device Model

  • Model → Preset → Mobile brand: Samsung
  • Mobile Model: Galaxy S20 FE

Other Settings

  • Window position/size → Remember last setting → Enabled
  • Disk sharing → Writable system disk
  • Mouse cursor → Use custom cursor → Enabled (optional)
  • PC hibernates → Disable hibernation while emulator runs → Enabled
  • APK association → Associate APK file → Enabled

ADB Port Check

In your emulator, find the Problem Diagnosis or network info panel and confirm the Adb debug port is 16384. If it differs, update adb_port in config.json.

Core Features

StubBot intelligently manages your MLB The Show market activities for diamond equipment (excluding bats):

  • Places buy orders exclusively for your favorited equipment items.
  • Automatically reads stub prices and calculates the profit gap to make smart buy order decisions.
  • Detects when your buy orders are low and strategically places more.
  • Pauses placing bids when your stub balance is depleted.
  • Actively revises existing buy and sell orders to stay competitive.
  • Checks your inventory for newly acquired cards and places sell orders for each.
  • Designed to loop continuously until you manually stop it.

Setup & Configuration

First Launch

  1. 1Double-click bot.exe to launch.
  2. 2Create a username and password, then paste your license key to register.
  3. 3Credentials are saved to config.json for automatic login on future launches.
  4. 4Press F10 at any time to pause or resume the bot.

Configuration (config.json)

Open config.json with any text editor to adjust bot behaviour:

  • console_id — Platform: PS, XBOX, or SWITCH
  • stub_price_gap — Max gap between buy/sell price for a flip (default: 550)
  • sleep_cycle — Seconds to wait between full loops
  • max_buy_orders_per_item — Max concurrent buy orders per item
  • adb_port — Emulator ADB port (default: 16384)

Bot Loop Strategy

Starts at your home screen, runs these steps in order, then repeats:

  1. 1Submit Buy Orders — Scrolls through favorited diamond equipment and places buy orders on each item.
  2. 2Revise Buy Orders — Reviews existing bids and updates any that are no longer competitive.
  3. 3Check Inventory — Scans for newly acquired diamond equipment and lists them for sale.
  4. 4Revise Sell Orders — Reviews existing listings and undercuts the market where needed.
  5. 5Sleep & Repeat — Waits for the configured sleep duration, then loops back to step 1.

Advanced: Start at a Specific Step

Pass a variable when launching from the command prompt to begin the loop at any step.

bot.exe submit_buy_orders

Available variables:

  • submit_buy_orders — Start at Step 1
  • revise_buy_order — Start at Step 2
  • check_equipment_inventory — Start at Step 3
  • revise_sell_order — Start at Step 4

Do's & Don'ts

Do 👍

  • Update orders manually through the companion app, website, or in-game as you normally would.
  • Place your own buy/sell orders manually if desired. The bot will work alongside your actions.

Don't 👎

  • Have active buy/sell orders for large quantities of non-equipment items. This can confuse the bot, causing it to reload repeatedly until those orders are cleared.

Known Limitations

  • Companion App Stability: The bot's performance can be affected by SDS server stability. If the app is unresponsive, the bot will continuously refresh until it loads properly. Downtimes are common around 3:00 PM Eastern (new card releases) and Fridays at 3:00 PM Eastern (roster updates).
  • Sliding Mitts: Currently, sliding mitts cannot be found in inventory by the bot due to their unique inventory slot.
  • Bats Ignored: The bot is designed to ignore bat items and will not flip them.
  • Occasional Stuck State: Rarely, the bot might get stuck on a buy/sell order page. It's advisable to check on its operation at least once per day.

MLB The Show 25 Stub Service

Let our 24/7 Market Flipping Bot grind stubs for you!

600,000+ Stubs$50

To ensure maximum account security, our service operates by simulating authentic market activity on a dedicated device instance with a unique IMEI signature for every user.

✔ Our Method: Safe Market Flipping

Stubs are generated legitimately by flipping cards on the market, exactly as a real player would. This organic activity is indistinguishable from normal gameplay and is the safest method available. Card flipping is confirmed by SDS as 100% legal. Learn more here.

✖ Other Methods: High-Risk

Services offering "stub transfers" or illegally sourced stubs, such as U4GM, use methods easily flagged by developers. Lopsided trades create a clear trail and put your account at high risk of being banned.
