I'm not asking for free handout cards or anything. But, I'm genuinely curious who at SDS comes up these moments and says to themselves "Here we go, everyone will enjoy these for sure". Like c'mon man, who TF tests these before they're rolled out? I get it if it's just one out of the bunch but there's multiple player moments that are just flat out stupid considering the player and card attributes.
/Rant
They dont test them.... Couple weeks ago with the Blake T. moments they had Aaron Judge at catcher and it was a major disappointment b/c he would mess up soo many times catching and throwing to first. If they tested them they would have IMMEDIATELY figured this out and fixed it but they didnt.

I kinda need the card if I eventually do Trout. I already hit 300 stars 2 days ago so I’m going to hold off on it for now

Like I said in another thread consider this SDS training us for moments extreme. Just remember it could always be worse.
Right now reading all these comments I would rather buy Blackmon and Wieters off the market and be done with the awards players.

Luckily I don't have to worry about that. I haven't been playing much so I only complete this program for the stars.

Blackmon is one of the best bench bats available. Totally worth the price

Edit
Ok so i got Wieters and Blackmon so now I only need 2 Awards players, so i plan on taking ( Musial 300 stars, and for my last player before Trout i'll take back Banks)
I'll try these moments but i'm not going to stress over them now.

Making a player program with wonderful moments where you have to hit multiple homeruns with a 60s power guy. That's exactly what everyone was waiting for, and we absolutely love spending time on these fantastic grinds. Especially having to hit a bomb off of Andrew Miller with 61 power is such a delight. Kudos.
I am sorry these moments are too hard for you.

Man he rakes second at bat for me a 450 foot shot against the Marlins. You were absolutely right, thanks.

I sat down to try some of the new moments today and thought to myself "These are pretty tough. Its gonna take some effort to finish this program." Then I grabbed some popcorn and logged into the show nation, because I remembered that anytime new content is released that isn't so easy a mentally handicapped monkey could complete it blindfolded, there's sure to be some hilarious whining in the community. You guys never disappoint

It's more the fact that someone in San Diego still think their community enjoys content like this. Isn't that goal #1 in this industry, experiencing joy and having fun playing the game? It's not even about the fact if they're hard or not, they're clearly not hard. The pitches coming in are meatballs. You can literally hammer every single pitch. The issue is that the guy swings a noodle and hitting homeruns therefore becomes a frustrating task, because pretty much all of those hammered pitches end up on the warning track or off the wall. You're literally waiting for the one where the game decides to reward your perfect/perfect liner or flyball with a homerun.
Not my idea of fun. But don't get it mixed up, they're not hard at all. Just very unenjoyable.

No, in Showdown you can draft power bats to blast pitches to Jupiter.

I’m doing the online stuff first, then I’ll cherry pick the moments to finish, I’m even willing to do a 9 inning game on AS if that means avoiding a HR/SB Moment.

I always do the moments which adds up to 42 points and then play the vs CPU game which contributes the remaining 8 points and be done with it. It can be tedious though with moments like these, but it is what it is.

I always think that people make too much of these moments. Then I went in and tried them myself. The frustration is more justified on this one. They kinda sucked.

I'm just amazed that someone in San Diego thought that moments like these would be perceived as enjoyable. There's a difference between missions being hard and missions being miserable. These moments weren't hard at all as I explained earlier, but they sure were miserable as hell.
