Race to Hersh
-
Fun fact. My late brother was in Elementary school with Hershiser in the 60's in Southfield, Michigan. Orel's family lived in the Detroit area for about six years.

So 1 reward for RS and it is a Pitcher and isnt even a "meta" type pitcher? I am baffled. And still no extreme. It is almost like they are trying to run everyone off lol.
Hersh is a pretty popular pitcher, atleast in my circles I follow
He is, or was a couple years ago, but definitely not a solo reward type guy. And definitely not someone that anyone will fear when loading up a game and seeing. I think he would be great with a nice position player next to him. They could have done Lou and Orel and released Willie solo or something IMO. With Wagner in Innings. IDK
He has the “meta” pitches and max hit/9. I understand many (I am not implying you) rely on the outlier quirk. If you decide you don’t like him, sell him. I’m not sure why so people are angry. Is it his velocity?
Competitively speaking yes you need the heat. I am probably not playing anymore H2H this year as it is a mess, so I dont mind using guys that rely more on location and offspeeds. I personally just didnt see him worthy as a solo reward for RS. Like mentioned above if he was paired with a guy like Lou Gehrig or Willie Mays or someone, it probably would have went over much better.
I am actually a little surprised that he wasn’t a TA reward.

I was fully expecting to get him today but I see there hasn’t been a single one sold yet. Those who made WS already probably in the same boat most are. Stub rich and no need to sell lol

Well, it's still speed for me. I hate outliers. I played RS last night for the first time in a while and got smoked by Feller and Gibson. It was humiliating. Dudes just laying it in the fat part and me slamming my pci all over the place. Might be done with Ranked, honestly. Wish they had done something worthwhile with Franchise...
Outlier is the second worst addition to this game when it comes to online play, the first being the auto hanger if you throw too many secondary pitches.
When it comes to Franchise, its really the only mode I am playing right now since online is a mess and I am finished the programs, It definitely needs work but hopefully create a stadium is the first step towards the implementation of the relocation feature, just let me move the Rays to Montreal!.

I really don’t want to, but I may have to make another run in RS just for Hersh. I have only made one run in RS this year and that was for Verlander, just haven’t been feeling RS the last two years.

Its tough man. I was winning 1-0 against a good player yesterday in the 6th inning before I got a disconnect loss. He was maybe 220-120 or something like that. He had 1 hit in 6 innings and I had 3. The PCI sensitivity mixed in with the further travel makes it extremely hard for anyone to put up multiple runs and hits.
Next game of course I play on AS and put up 8 runs in 5 innings before other guy quit. There shouldn’t be that drastic a change between AS and HOF but it’s night and day

IMO the last two years have just felt awful online, but this latest patch, my god, might be the worst I have seen it. I’ll just have to keep telling myself it’s for Hersh and push on haha, I may just go for the 30 wins instead of the usual push for 900.

I made WS legitimately last season but was bored out of my mind playing on HOF/legend. Decided to tank down all the way to 400 and got my 30 wins that way. I even made WS again lol. Twice in one program is a feat for me lol

I don’t blame you, 900+ is awful. I just feel like going for the 30 wins will be less stressful, at this point in the year I really don’t want to have to sweat it out.

Welp, mine came through last night. I was either 4th, 5th, or 6th, although when my order was placed it showed 8 orders placed. Can't wait to use him, and start leveling him up.
What was your timestamp? Got mine at 11:26 pm PT last night too.
When I placed my bid, it showed 6 orders. Just making sure they got placed accordingly lol

3:10 AM Central. It looks like mine was 6th and yours was 4th, if you eliminate the dupes.

Sounds about right

Jealous guys. I usually am online when they drop and one of the first 10 to get my order in. I had a business meeting and jumped on as soon as it ended and came out #112 in line.....So I have a wait for the first time this year....and Hersh is my all time favorite pitcher....
