For some odd reason I feel compelled to add at least two more players with at least 25 pounds difference to MLB.com

Anthony Santander in game (MLBTS 20) is 190 pounds. MLB.com lists him at 225 pounds--an amazing 35 pound difference!

Keibert Ruiz in same game is 200 pounds, but according to MLB.com is 225 pounds.

Don't we already have #6?
3. Would love to have it, but the licensing fees are going to be prohibitive.

ohh i will check that.. thanks

Only when they give Musial 75 speed, can Roman have 99.

If this means I get more jersey options & create/edit a stadium then I'm ok with doing away with year to year saves temporarily, this "revamp" needs to impress the heck out of me.

100%

@baboonishace said in MLB the show 21 wishlist:

Stadium creator. Add in being able to set concession prices, fix the attribute progression, trade logic, be able to set the yearly contract cost for free agents ( like 10 million year one, 15 year 2-4, etc)

Honestly a waste of time....there are more things they need to be working on then a stadium creator.

99% confident no because the relocation feature was a superficial implementation like most of the new Franchise ‘features’ over the last five years.

That’s hilarious! I’d love to hear more about how you decided to build each charter . How has your team done over the years ??

How do you even scout properly? I usually just let the computer do it for me. I’ve tried myself and it’s cumbersome and I never find any diamond in the rough.

Great post and it’s stuff I have been saying for years. I think they need to revamp scouting and copy the Madden model. I find it very hard to scout and never find anyone good. Maybe I am doing it wrong lol. Rehab assignments for injured players could be a cool tweak.

Being that they make all of their money from people buying stubs for their diamond dynasty teams I don’t expect any changes. Especially since they added the prospects this year. I can’t see any major developments.

Well my off season went interesting. About 4 or 5 days into free agency. I noticed my rival Yankees were front runners for T. Bauer. With a 6 year $120 million offer. Coming in second were the reds with a 4 year $100 million. I decided that I had to at least be part of the conversation even though I had no intent of actually landing him. I offered him a 6 year $90 million dollar deal (which is what I could afford staying within my budget) I was his 3rd favorite offer (naturally) and I figured I wont get him that cheap. But at least I put in my bid. Continued simming and 4 days later he accepted MY offer? I'm gonna chock this up to the games faulty logic. There's no way he should have left $30 million on the table for the same amount if years. But I will enjoy my new ace briefly until the new game comes out.

I also signed K. Kella to close and K. Hernandez to play second base. I traded for H. Ramirez from the Marlins to fill in my outfield hole.

Going into 2021 I am going to manually injure Sale til June. Hopefully I can stay competitive until then and have a good Bauer, Sale, Rodriguez 123 punch down the stretch.

@Patrico523 said in Ohtani - 2 way player:

Am I just missing something or is there no way to make Ohtani a 2 way player on the latest live roster update for The Show? I went in to edit his player in roster control, and it’s greyed out. Any help would be appreciated!

Sorry this is late but I don't think so you can use his two way in diamond dynasty.

You need to make some house rules and follow em. All those trades seem totally unrealistic and would never happen in real life. All you're doing is taking advantage of the games weak transactions AI.
I love playing franchise too, but I try to keep it somewhat competitive and realistic.

For instance: The only trades I make are ones offered up to me by the CPU.
I place whomever I want to get rid of or use as trade bait on the trading block and list my positional needs - keeping my fingers crossed some decent offers come in. And... I allow myself only 3 trades during the season and 5 in the off-season.

Free Agency is a whole other matter and if I had more time I could give some excellent suggestions with that as well.

At the end of the day thou, its all about having fun. Good Luck in 2023!

You can see the areas that your players aren’t happy about and try and adjust those categories. Some are really tough to adjust like region and salary (if you have multi-year contracts).
