    Still beats FIFA by a gazillion miles.

    My brother and I were talking about this on Sunday morning:

    FIFA: turn in 11 85+ rated cards to receive this 1 88 ovr LB.
    Me: But I keep those 11 cards right...like I do not lose them.
    FIFA: No, you loose them.
    Me: But why?
    FIFA: Thats futball bay-bay!

    MLB TS: Collect those 40 cards and earn this really awesome card
    Me: But I really don't want to lose my Diamond Series players in that collection.
    MLB TS: You don't lose them, but you can't sell them
    Me: ...
    MLB TS: Like you keep them...
    Me: ...
    MLB TS; Oh, you're a FUT player, my bad, this must be a jarring experience for you. Here just hit a few XBH, we'll give you this 89 diamond level 1B.

    I actually skipped last inning to play fifa because the content was so good. Probably 30 Team of the season cards and 3 icons in like 2 weeks. No reason to lie, Fifa content has never been so good.

    Maybe its just because Crochet is new but he basically looks like Chris Sale but he can throw 102!

    Thank you Andrew Wilson for your touching comment...

    In two days of playing The Show I unlocked 5 diamond level cards; and when I collected them, I can kept them...and still earned a reward. I also earned over 25K in stubs just for simply playing moments, conquest, and games v the CPU. I am not gloating...dudes are pulling-off far better days than I am -- there is a drastic difference between DD and FUT/MUT/MyTeam (I'm aware that's 2k) and I am not the only one to notice it.

    "FIFA content has never been so good." = "Excuse me, sir, did the chef add a little salt and pepper to this dogsh!t? It's taste a little better today."

    Cool. I unlocked over 50 Diamond cards and over 300,000 stubs from packs through TA this weekend, completed the NL, added Soriano and Finley, Could now also buy Trout but will wait till I have 1,000,000 plus. That just has nothing to do with EA having better content than ever before.

    It more has to do with the fact I know what I’m doing, just like I do in Fifa or any other sports UT so earning free icons, playing fut champs and earning another 500,000 coins and 6 Team of the season cards from every league every week is easy. Much better content than before, and that isn’t even touching Icon swaps which is the best part of it all.

    Crochet isn't that good if you can read pitches.. If you struggle against the fb then he will suck. I wouldn't recomend using him more than 5 innings if your opponent has good ba's with his cards. He will eventually time him up.

    Lee, Oswalt, Glavine, Pedro, Burnes will be the rotation after headliner drops today. Looking forward to it.

    Not really interested in Leiter because he lacks a changeup.

    The good thing is if everyone uses them you'll get use to their pitches and be able to hit them well. I love when someone uses Corbin now

    Andrew, you missed the point. You are arguing content, I am arguing mechanics.

    With that said, "much better content than before..." does not mean better content than what SDS is doing with DD now. Going back to my sarcastic comment, adding salt and pepper to sh!t still makes it sh!t.

    We have differing POV (content v mechanics has already highlighted that). I played FIFA for a few months and turned-it-off because of how disheartened I felt about what was available in the game -- I'm not unique in that sentiment.

    Finally, I did not lie. My humorous dialogue that started this conversation depicts the mechanics of FUT v DD pretty well. How many rewards in FIFA are linked to losing a stack of cards to gain one? How many rewards system in DD are linked to losing a stack of cards to gain one?

    DD has exchanges which a lot of players suggest not to do. Everything else can be collected and kept, unless you choose to bronze/silver swap.

    I am not playing FIFA anymore, and I will never go back to FUT. Can you say the same for MLB TS and DD? My guess is your answer is "No." Could that be because you are SO GOOD at sports games and I am confidentially above-average? Sure. Odds are it comes down to experiences, I am confident that a majority of people will lean my way.

    Why? because the mechanics of DD are better than those found in FUT, MUT and MyTeam.

    I see your lefty rotation and raise you one lineup with 6 switch hitters, 1 Lofton, and a right handed catcher.
