    Fill in the blank.

    I say the year of the incredible, physics defying sinker!

    Furthermore, the year of the pitchers who never threw a sinker!

    Nolan Ryan? Never even heard of a sinker (or a 2-seamer)
    Aaron Nola's primary pitch? Nope. Not even in the repetoire.
    Cliff Lee? Nyet.
    Tom Seaver? Nada.

    And MANY more!

    Still, not a bad year for the game by my standards.
    Could have done without a few "5 feet off the plate HR's", but it happens.
    In video games.

    Year of the whinners - and sinkers

    Don't be that way, Captain Awesome (if you really ARE a Captain).
    You misunderstood the point of the post-- add a final epitaph to this years game.

    Have fun!

    (Psst... 2007... Mets... 7 1/2 game lead with 17 to play)

    Freeman. Can you imagine?
    That would be like when Boggs went to the Yankees.
    It would just look weird.

    The year of the “messed up moments”

    First year player here. On the fence about buying 22. Moments doesn’t help my decision.

    They are extremely frustrating to try and do. A couple of comments about them:

    1). They need to make them so we are more frequently successful with them. Good contact and good timing should be “successful “. Goes without saying that a perfect/perfect should definitely be successful

    1. give me a player card that can get the job done without having to do the moment 25-30 times. Don’t ask me to get 8 total bases with a yadier Molina card with 30 power.

    2. set up the situation properly. Want me to recreate tatis homer with the bases loaded up 12-0? Make tatis have 125 power and make the pitcher throw strikes.

    3. recreate the players as well. Griffey senior should not be hitting in Washington nationals stadium with expos uniform pitchers.

    Again, set me up in the moment for success. I feel like im set up to fail on most of these. If I swing too early or too late, yeah I get failing. And that does happen often. But, too often I make solid contact and solid velocity only for it to be a lazy fly ball to the outfield.

    Thanks for reading my rant. 😀

    I see one common denominator with all these. They just simply refuse to design a game where the clearly better player, in terms of stick skills, doesn’t have to play through the bs to win. It’s a shame really and makes the game not fun to play. They can’t or won’t put out legit gameplay.

    Why? Because you couldn’t rely on the game overriding your opponents input and serving you easy pitches to hit?

    I disagree.
    Pinpoint completely eliminates control per/9's.
    If you master it, you can turn a strike throwing train wreck like Hector Nerris into Greg Maddux.
    It's totally unrealistic for a game that is supposed to balance player input and card attributes.

    If you take away the bunt cheese in 16 then....16 and 17 are great games for stick skills......its a train wreck from there.

    17 was my favorite. I feel like as the game got more popular along with online play, they’ve implemented stuff to give players a fighting chance against a better opponent. Sure, the better player will likely win, but not without having to play against the coding that’s trying it’s hardest to keep the other opponent in the game. All the other Ultimate Team modes are the same way, it’s just how online gaming is. It’s called retaining players in the gaming business.
