I wanna build my all-food team, so Iโm looking for these rewards:
Mike Trout, Tim Salmon, Kevin Bass, Billy Beane, Chili Davis, Coco Crisp, and Darryl Strawberry
Gotta have Seth Beer in there cause no way any of those goes without beer
Nice!!! Gonna need your Rollie Fingers to hold the beer!
Eat or drink too much and you'll gain a lil Pudge Rodriguez
For sure. And a healthy stomach leads to a healthy colon (bartolo).

Can't wait for the 85 post over the weekend about how they are not being reward for a home run every time they swing the bat this weekend
Iโll be here as soon as I hit my first warning track flyout. I wonโt disappoint you ๐ฅฒ๐ฅฒ
Hell, if I did that it would be 1st inning of 1st game.
How about a 91 Hanley Ramirez? Fits the current rating and SS is a weak position.
Weak? 84ov Michael Young is spanking the ball to the tune of an Average over .500 for me online. 11-2 in RS, just entered the 500s... how dare you!

11-2 sounds like Veteran difficulty to me, wait until you ge to HOF and try him

Thought they had 2 moonshot events, one early and one in July around the 4th.

I spank with that 84 Young every year. He's always the last gold to leave my lineup... that 97 vR and 102vL contact plus his Tier 3 boost pays very very well. Cal Ripken Jr might be the only other 100/100 contact SS in the game right now.

Is there anyone in the event who isn't like 14-0 in Ranked Seasons? New to the game and my negative record is the only one I've seen.

Canโt wait to hit dingers against trash pitchers so I can feel good about my ability to hit
Well, it did the opposite for me...
Wife went to bed early, so I thought, let's get (lightly) blasted and have a... blast!
Top of the 1st, first game, 2 dingers, 4 hits. Great, he gets 4 runs at the bottom, who cares right? I get nothing top of the 2nd, so let's have fun so I throw him BP in his half; he tees off and it's 12-2; I figure he'll return the favour... nope; he watched his replays and R2'd to death.
Oh well, on to the next... finished the night 2-7, got shutout 2-3 times and both wins were 1-0 affairs. I got in my head so much I ended up swinging at everything out of the zone, looking at strikes, late on 92 mph fastballs, and did not get the seeing eye singles or late/early bloops.
So the lesson is when you're about to turn 43, play sober. I used to light it up and then go crazy in games; now I'm over-thinking and over-strategizing against common pitchers; instead of having fun I'm going Where will he throw it? Where will he throw it? Where will he throw it? Where will he throw it? Where will he throw it? in an endless loop.
I even took a break, went into Legend BP against Nolan Ryan with Kieston Hiura, got into a rythm... nope, still in my head once I jumped back.

Good timing ball in the pci routine fly ball event. Can't wait.
Got my list of common pitchers at home. Maybe I can get Pujols over .200. I'm barely over .300 in RS. By far my worst average after 30 or so games since I started playing heavy in 2017.
My FOTF Trout is hitting like 0.090 right now. I'm missing a ton of predictable pitches and its frustrating me to no end lol
Anyway....I'm taking a different approach. I'm just using the event to grind Cover athlete progress. If you see someone running into this event with a bunch of golds and bronzes, thats probably me bout to get spanked.

My record is 24-30 in ranked im 678 rated in ranked, But im 9-2 in moonshot event, So if you can hit you can win games in event ranked its about pitching too sometimes ill take fastballs down the middle on purpose etc so people are like oh this guy cant hit those and bang next time they throw it i send it yards on a 3 run shot, when it matters to hit it

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line
The man come and take you awayLOL

Yesterday I played a lot, lost most of the games. I said man [censored] this, took a break, a 30 mins nap and did some other thingsโฆ when I came back I was unbeatable, this game has to be played well rested, sober and with a full stomach
