Are you going to go after the live series collections? If not sell him. He gets smacked around online
Which just baffles me, he’s the pitching version of Ttout, living legend right now. There hasn’t been a pitcher as good as him since at least a Halladay, but for some odd reason he gets beat up online. I think it has something to do with the releases they give live series pitchers, Cole is the same way.
Wish they could figure something out because it’s really a shame he’s so useless in online play.
They don't have a sinker or a cutter. This game is such trash that you are better off using silver Trevor May than the 2 best pitchers in baseball.
That’s part of it, but even LS pitchers with sinkers/cutters just seem really easy to read. But whenever they release a flashback card of that same pitcher, release changes and tougher to pick up, at least for me it seems that way.
Also live series pitchers h/9 and hr/9 are terrible. I dont like that they release these ta2 cards of pitchers who have never played in the mlb, and they are better than the best players in the league. You can't afford to not use them but I have 200k degrom just sitting in my inventory. Eventusly even the collection cards will be useless.
Next year I think the plan is just to sell everything and make a team with just team affinity players. Then have 5 million stubs and post a YouTube video of me opening thousands of packs lol

That too, they do need to make adjustments to deGrom, Bauer, Cole, and a few others /9s, especially with the BS stats they gave the future stars.
You’re probably onto something for next year.

Yeah how you like that? A Yankee basically admiting to doctoring a ball, and crickets.
I know the astros cheated but when the investigation came knocking at the yankees door I hate how they just shut it down. I read somthing about front office of the yankees tied up the release of what the mlb found in courts until the league just said to hell with it.
Im sure its more complicated than that but still. I hate that they made the astros the fall guys for somthing multiple teams were doing just because we are a smaller market and the yankees are a huge name around the world.

Cole learned to cheat on the Astros. Astros aren't fall guys. They are a dirty team that should be disbanded,

Thats hilarious. I won't defend the astros but they didn't invent putting tar on a baseball.

The fiction cards have always been a disrespectful kick in the sack to those established players. I simply refuse to use them!! Never will! I hate them! They spend so much on these fiction cards for players who haven’t played a single minute, when they could be releasing really cool flashback cards for current players!! Literally hundreds of possibilities!!! Hundreds!!! I been runnin my mouth about this for years!! I don’t think they hear me lol!

I like some of them but I think it could be done way better. Each team could have one or 2 future stars that you have to level up. An entire program dedicated to taking a 70 ovr future star to a 99.
I really want more grind than what we are getting. We are being given cards that are better than all live series for little to no effort. Why not have cards with programs tied to them that are meant to take a long time to complete.

Sell Friday he'll be a 95 ovr

Right like let them be milestone upgrades. You reach 500 ABs with a player he gets upgraded. 25 HRs upgraded. Etc

I don’t mind mass releases, but they gotta all be useable. Otherwise yes everyone has the same team like you say. I’m anticipating the Shawn Green 4HR game milestone card. They gotta have it. He’s one of the few who have done it that are in the game. Mays, Green and JD that I know of.
