    I have been hating the AL Central... for some reason I suck even though I get all those good bats like Soler, Sano, and such. And in each of the missions the team I am facing ties it up in the 9th pushing it into extras... every, [censored], time!

    I actually said to myself yesterday that I need 20 outs and to start it with the bases loaded and I may beat him half the time.

    How is Scherzer to beat after the update? I’m one away from him after starting NL East last night. I’ve won every mission so far and I’m one away from Scherzer but I was tired last night and didn’t want to waste my run while tired, so I went to bed.

    From Easiest to hardest its AL central( because of Franmil reyes, Soler, Carlos Santana at C and literally any live series twins hitter, they are all pretty solid.) NL Central- their best silver player(Schwarber) is worthless against Hader but he is easy to tire out. AL west- Cahna, Calhoun, and Gallo. Ohtani is tougher then Verlander. NL west- You have some decent bats but not great, Bumgarner is tougher than Buehler. This one isn’t easy or hard IMO. AL east. don’t have much for silver bats really, but Sale/Cole is easier than Scherzer/Degrom. NL east- have conforto and Jay bruce but Scherzer and Degrom are tough, scherzer especially. Toughest by far IMO

    It must be in my head and not being able to hit well with righty batters. I have found I do better with Lefties and that AL Central is almost all righty hitters. I end up struggling.

    Random tip from someone who plays showdown almost exclusively - load up on exit velocity perks and avoid the contact boosts. I'm fairly certain the contact boosts create a larger soft contact area which is creating a lot of the nonsensical hitting outcomes you see criticized on here.

    Easier than Thor for me.

    Interesting, problem is that contact boosts dominant the choices. I'd have like no perks most of the time if I dont do contact perks. But I'll try it. I'll try anything

    Not for me. Odor is great, but not as good as Calhoun for me

    This is why I find the AL west somewhat easier, the hitters are insane. You don’t even need to draft Calhoun and he can end up on your bench. You can land Ohtani in the gold pitcher round, I think if you can hit we’ll AL west is probably gunna be your favourite. Plus you get to tee up Verlander

    If it wasnt for Ohtani, I'd agree with you.
