Home hunting being called cheating is quite a stretch

How so? If someone uses an exploit can guarantee them selves a distinct and explicit advantage, Drastically increasing their chances to win, it is tantamount to cheating. However, I Will And respect your take on it as according to your profile you do not engage in the tactic.

Ive seen a few people in this thread say bunting is cheesing and takes no skill, yet play their home games at Shippett. Some think that playing in that park also requires little to no skill.
But I’d smack any of those people at any stadium, lol. So say it takes no skill all you want, but that’s completely false

I’m just saying some people bunt and some play at Shippett. They are just two extreme styles of gameplay. Home run derby and small ball. You can’t use one and then say the other is invalid.
And yes, you could smack any player at any stadium no argument there. You are probably one of the best hitters in the game. A lot of us aren’t as good a hitter so we have to bunt occasionally to get on or make something happen. However, I’m not bunting with Killebrew and I’m not bunting at Shippett. The risk/reward just isn’t there. The way the ball travels Nobody should be bunting at that park.

I bunt. Not cause I'm bad, not cause I'm good. I do it cause I'm an [censored] hole lol

Wow, this thread sure touched some nerves.
In Matt’s defense, a 55% win percentage in baseball is pretty good. Not everyone is a top 100/35/a billion player.
I don’t think players that lobby for pitching input to matter are a problem. I don’t think complaining about Shippett makes someone a bad player.
We’ve all lost games to inferior players there.
Not all of us want 15-12 slugfests with 17 solo home runs in our games.
Some of us are looking for some subtlety.
Lots of players try to emulate top players by choosing Shippett, and I would argue that those players are NOT getting better.
I would also suggest that it is very difficult to actually get better this year, because the gameplay is super inconsistent. Hopefully it will improve in future versions so arguments like this one will go away. I like to think a balanced game would support many strategies, and not create cults of “exploiters” or home hunters or “cheesers”.

Well said. Probably my comment more than anything that degraded the discourse. My apologies for running your thread off the rails.

Hey, this is all dialog among the community. Things aren’t going to get better by not talking about stuff.

Lol December and still playing at shipppet so you can flex on the forum is weird.

When considering Shippet, just remember these 5 words. Date Palm Field Best Field.

That is a very good park. Great hitters background and provides good hitting results without feeling cheesy.

Very well balanced at 890ft. It plays comparable to Minnesota.

So you can flex on the forum? That’s one of the more idiotic things I’ve heard. Ik @The_Canuckler plays at datepalm, so I’m not sure who this comment is targeted at. But if it’s me, I play at shippett, yea, but I also don’t home hunt. I went 11-0 to make ws this szn and I think at least 6 of those were road games at other fields.
I’ll play any of these guys that wanna talk [censored] and act like shippett players are only good bc of the stadium and that’ll show em that that’s far from the truth.

Its actually even more idiotic to watch. Imagines guys that talk all day about how good they are on a forum, and never enter the tournament in game. I know....good players, away games, equally built rosters, spooky stuff bro, just keep hanging around here and maybe Steriodz will accept you challenge and play you in MLB 16 again or something. You can play him with bronzes and lose....because you know.... AiNt NoBoDy FlExInG On ThIs FoRuM

Must be why you’ve played 19 out of your last 20 games at home.

I lost by one run vs his god squad and I only had that team bc I had literally never played 16 before. Smacked him in 19 with even teams. Nice try tho. And idk wtf u mean by “never enter the tournament in game ”.
Why don’t you play me big guy? Sure like to talk [censored]. Let’s see if you can back up this big mouth of yours

No I didn’t want to flex. I didn’t have a team in 16 and that guy wanted to play 16. It’s not a very difficult concept to understand. I like to challenge people and embarrass them on stream when they talk [censored] like you’re doing now. Those that actually know me, know that I’m not looking to flex anything. I don’t consider myself a top player like some people do. I don’t even think I’m that good. Just good enough to beat some [censored] such as yourself
